Finding Inspiration

I never thought I'd be a blogger. #1 I don't have time and #2 I don't begin to think that people are really interested in what horrible disease I'm studying today, however I do live in Arizona and recently realized that friends and family at home might actually be interested in what I'm doing, saying, or thinking.

I was also inspired to begin a blog by my good friend Mellie. She inspires me frequently, but she recently began a blog and I thought, why not? She has two beautiful kids, a job, and recently started sewing. If she can find the time, so can I. I also think it might be good for me to get my head out of school books and board prep.

A few things you might already know:

I'm engaged to a wonderful man named Tyler. A beautiful person with a huge heart. We met our first year of college in the dorms and became really good friends. We even lived together our second year! 5 years later we were still close friends and decided we'd give a relationship a try. In August of that year he proposed. We've postponed our wedding due to our relocation for my medical education, but are hoping for a date sometime in 2011. In the summer of 2008 we moved to Glendale Arizona (yes, we know, it's hot :) ). We have a pretty apartment that we used to love, but seems to have gone downhill quickly in the last few months. We have been discussing moving to a rental home closer to Ty's work, but I'm not sure I want to move AGAIN! In May of last year Tyler and I decided we were ready to take the next step and start a family. Isabella (a bouncy Boston Terrier puppy) joined us in our home and she was one of the best decision we've made. She brings us a ton of happiness and whenever I need a smile her sweet little face is sure to do the trick.

As you can guess, my life is a tad stressful. I spend most of my free time (which isn't much) hanging out with Ty and Bella. Occasionally we get to go out and spend time with some of our favorite people in Arizona. Other then that you can find me in "the batcave" (my office) and Ty in the kitchen cooking something delicious. We both love Oregon (born and raised), but wont be able to come back for a visit for a while. We're both looking forward to June 2011 when we can return (mostly) for good.

I'm not a great speller (this would be messy if it weren't for spell check!) and I'm not sure I'll be able to blog often, but here it goes I guess!
