December Flies
Categories : Obstetrics, Personal |
Well the hot weather has hit town and with it we seem to have an influx of flies. On Sunday at our church AquaCarols (which was otherwise perfect weather and a great event) there was quite a few flies about and yesterday as I went for an evening run down to the beach I was mobbed by flies every time I slowed to a walk - good incentive to keep running I guess. I don’t remember the flies being so bad the last few years.
One good thing about the carols being over is no more twice weekly music practice which takes the pressure off a little. But the next 11 days still promise to be fairly crazy. We have Owen’s eye surgery on this Thursday, then I am on-call for obstetrics this weekend. Next week I already have five overdue patients scheduled for induction, with quite a few others due to deliver any time soon. So the big date I am looking forward to is Saturday the 22nd, which will be the beginning of a five day break from work for me. I am on-call again for obstetrics on Boxing Day but at least it’s five full days away from the surgery and four full days (hopefully) where I can stay away from the hospital too!
