long time no write

I just wanted to put a quick note on here apologizing for my long absence. I have been on "holiday" for the past two weeks, exploring Australia with Woody. It has been lovely except for the fact that I have been sick for almost 3 weeks now (I do think I am getting better though). I am glad that my hospital experience has taught me so much about chest physiotherapy as I am probably more adept at taking care of my upper respiratory condition--now if it would just go away.

Yesterday was my first day in the outpatient clinic in Blacktown. The outpatient clinic has a diverse range of patients and I am already learning so much. Today I participated in a pilates class for our patients and tomorrow I am going to a nearby pool to lead some "hydro" or aquatic therapy sessions.

I do plan to write more tomorrow and also put up some pictures. Woody posted some of our pics from Vacation '09 on facebook, so you can check those out if you so desire.

I really miss everyone from class. (I wish I could get in on some of those study sessions Amanda mentioned in her email! :) ) Hope you are all doing well and learning bunches as we push through these final days of grad school. Almost there!
