Hello my wonderful family :)
The Geek from the Geek Squad just left and I officially have internet! After a week and a half with no internet! I survived, though! I think I deserve some kind of medal! : ) Just a quick life update on my end...
I'm am feeling more and more at home in Iowa City. I'm making new friends at school and easing into what will be a hectic, stressful, but very rewarding four years! I'm taking Biochem, Physiology, Problem Based Learning (teaching us diagnostic skills) and Dental Anatomy. In dental anatomy I get to do dental procedures on a mannequin with teeth while a professor spies on me from a camera inside my patients mouth. : ) It's pretty amazing technology actually. I'm really going to like it, I think. I've been blessed to have Alex's cousin, Kari, close. She's been inviting me over for dinner with her family, taking me shopping at the farmer's market, and hot tubing at her house in Coralville. It's definitely helped me feel less anxious! I won't see actual patients until next semester....however, when I do... I get to choose my first two patients. :) So if anyone wants to make a trip to IC, let me know! In a few weeks we get our first crack at anesthesia. We practice on each other. I hope my partner does his/her homework first!
It was wonderful to get to see Laura and to meet baby Caroline! I can't wait until we can all be together again!

Wow, Margaret, You're braver than me!!
Too bad Laura or Dave couldn't be one of your patients....both of them have said really funny things after coming to after getting their wisdom teeth out! You can only imagine:)
