Today was Well Child day at the Health Centre, so I got to see some amazing children! One was just 4 days old, gaining weight well, and a full head of hair! Today was also my first day of nurse on call (not just me of course, but following my preceptor) and I’m only part way through that so I’ll have to keep you posted. Much of the community has gone out on the land as it is a fantastic day out, so we didn’t have many calls during the day but have a had a few tonight since supper and had to head back to the HC to see three patients. I was invited to a barbeque with some other nurses and RCMP which was fun (and no one noticed that my “burger” was just tomatoes, pickles, lettuce, and cheese!) The land is absolutely beautiful, I still can’t get over looking out the window of our office to see the ice starting to melt on the water and the backdrop of rocks and just the starts of grass. I’m hoping that my camera will cooperate to get at least a couple of shots in (since I left Hamilton it won’t focus anymore unless I zoom to the exact right level which means most of the shots have to be closer in than I want).

You are going to have to eat complete burgers eventually, haha. Or did you find an alternate source of protein?
