18 weeks...

So 18 weeks might seem like a long time, but in comparison to say... 2 1/2 years... it's not.  16 weeks from now I'll be starting at Madonna for my summer fieldwork, and about 2 weeks after that Clint will be coming to stay with me for the summer.  And in August I'll be moving back to Overton with him.  So, in 18 more weeks this long distance relationship stuff will officially be over! Yay!

I have been at Creighton about 2 /1/2 years now, and that whole time Clint and I have been living about 3 hours apart, seeing each other every other weekend on average.  4 weeks is about the longest we've been apart, which doesn't happen very often.  For many, living apart when you are married seems crazy (I've heard more than enough opinions on the topic).  Others say we have the perfect set up.  And while it sucks, the times when we are together make it worth any wait.  I could not be more excited for our future together.

I fully intend to enjoy the next 18 weeks at school and starting my pediatrics rotation.  But I needed to share my excitement and say... Let the countdown begin! :)
