Time for my blog to grow up, spread its wings and fly so we're saying goodbye here. But read on, there's a new beginning elsewhere.
Happy 1st Birthday blog!
When I first started blogging, I had no idea how to blog, why to blog or what to blog. I just knew I loved reading blogs and decided to start my own. It seemed appropriate at the time to write about our journey through med school. My husband decided after 5 years of practicing as a Physician's Assistant, he should go back to school. Actually, his story is amazing because his very first job was hospital maintenance, in layman's terms- a janitor. He always planned to become a P.A. but earned a nursing degree first to support himself through P.A.school. Well, marriage and kids slowed things down a bit but he has steadily reached his goals. Now he is on the last rung of the ladder. We sold out, moved away and started over. We've moved 3 times in the last 3 years and probably have 2 or 3 more moves to go. He will graduate in 2012. I am so proud of my very smart hubby. He has maintained a 4.0 since day 1. It's been a time consuming, money guzzling and family sacrificing experience. Whew! Waiting for the day I can say, "it was worth it."
After blogging for some time, I realized three things. One, this blog was my hobby, not my family's. Two, I am not a doctor. (wink) And three, the blog was mostly about my personal inspiration. I've put a lot of time into my husband's career/education and would do it all over again in a heartbeat. (I'm old fashioned like that.) We are a team. He's considered me every step of the way, always putting family first. Love that man. But to be honest, he could care less about this blog. I have to
So... I've made the decision to change the name of my blog. A reinvention of sorts. Not just the name but the location. I debated this quite a bit because it will be like starting a brand new blog. The title of my current blog attracts spam and probably frustrates those looking for medical advice or med talk. Duh! Didn't think about that one. Remember, this blog was going to be for us. I never imagined people would actually read it. I didn't even know one could google the title.
Enough of my rambling. My new blog is:

I will sadly say goodbye to this blog but I am so happy to hear about the new one. It sounds so exciting!
Best wishes always,

Good for you for having the courage to change the name of your blog. You are braver than I am. Most of my family doesn't have much interest in my blog, but my dear husband thankfully does. He's my photographer, food taster, sometimes chef and greatest supporter.

I am going to the other one. I can rtell how proud you are of your hubby and rightfully so. He is a hard worker. I know how hard it is to go through med school cause my hubby's a Urologist. Good luck to him and to you too!...Christine
