Well In Seattle...

Prior to our move I was accused of stating several specifics about what it's like in Seattle. Like all those movers before us, it's an inevitable trap. Things are different and you just want to share it. So I decided to wipe the dust off my blog and let it out here.

Well in Seattle, there are more dogs than kids. Naively I was expecting David's fellow residents to be the family type. Since we are married with a kid and starting residency I thought there'd be others. However, this is not the case. Not only is David the only surgical intern with a kid, he's also one of two (maybe 3) that are even married. I guess I won't be enjoying the company of other resident's wives. I could probably earn a living walking their dogs though.

Well in Seattle, our view of Lake Union has led our son David to believe all planes land on water. Throughout the day we see and hear water planes coming and going. Now whenever David sees a plane he says "splash". I guess there was that plane in NY that landed on the Hudson...

Well in Seattle, the weather forecasters are expecting a heat wave next week. They say temperatures should be in the 70's. Although our apartment doesn't have air conditioning I do believe we will survive this summer heat.

Well in Seattle, I get to be a stay at home mom. It's only taken David 1 week to begin saying, "Mom" instead of "Mama". Now whenever he needs or wants something I hear, "mom...mom...MOM!" Which are the words currently being uttered. So for today here's one more:

Well in Seattle, we are hoping for visitors anytime soon so you can see what we're all about!

  5. Kelly, you are in Seattle? Richard interviewed for his residency in Seattle! We could have been so close, but it was not meant to be I guess. I thought it was beautiful there and want to return someday. For now we are stuck here. Thanks for commenting on knuckles blog. It has been a long time!
