And I Won't Come Down

…Cloud Study, John Constable (1776-1837)…

I am exhausted – physically and emotionally.

That is what absolute, unfiltered joy does to a person.

Yesterday, in a room of my peers, sitting next to people I’d known for many years, and some I’d only known for a few, I found out where I’ll be doing my residency.

I’m told I screamed when I opened the envelope.

I know I immediately started to shake and cry, and my sides are still sore from all the wild hugs I shared with those around me.

I got my number one choice.

Let me say that again, because I’m still reeling.

I got my number one choice.

Mr. Whine and I will be staying together in our current city for one year while I complete my transitional intern year and he finishes his fellowship.  Then we will be striking out for a new city, a new part of the nation, a new institution where I will be blessed beyond words to get the best training in the country.

This is Mullberry Whine on Cloud 9, wishing you all the  best.
