My day started way to early than I would had like it to. We had an uniform inspection this morning. We had to be in fromt of the hospital no later than 0630! So that meant I had to get up at least by 0445...way to early for me! But I am glad to say that I passed inspection and the CO (commanding officer of the hospital) said that I did an outstanding job on shining my boots. lol<br /><br />From being up so early, my day went by so slow!! I felt like time was standing still. I didn't think that 1600 would ever get here! But I have to say that it wasn't too crazy of a day at the clinic. Which I am thankful for.<br /><br />So now I am off to have dinner with a couple of great friends!!<br />Ciao Ciao!!<br /><br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"><img style="BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; BACKGROUND: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT: 0px" src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/120/AD941FE984270AD47BDE9A430D4D6239.png" /></a>Jennhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11855577666671632706noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5789033105758693351.post-18244253804056579592010-12-26T15:57:00.003-06:002010-12-26T16:13:18.069-06:00My first Christmas overseas!<div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;color:#3366ff;">Happy Holidays!!</span></strong></div><div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:180%;color:#3366ff;"></span></strong></div><div align="center"><strong><span style="color:#3366ff;">I hope that everyone had a great Christmas! </span></strong></div><div align="center"><strong><span style="color:#3366ff;"></span></strong></div><div align="center"><strong><span style="color:#3366ff;">My Christmas was pretty good considering this was my first Christmas that I was away from my family. </span></strong></div><div align="center"><strong><span style="color:#3366ff;">Thank goodness for Skype!!</span></strong></div><div align="center"><strong><span style="color:#3366ff;">Christmas morning I called back home and opened presents with my family via skype.

There's a good reason for me being gone...I went to bootcamp in Jan. I graduated from there on March 19 and then went straight to my A school for Hospital Corpsman. I just graduated from school on July 1. I had a couple weeks of leave which was really nice and the best part was to be able to be around my family for the whole time. Now I am stationed in Naples, Italy for 2 years working at the Naval Hospital that is on base. The base is really nice from what I can tell from what I have seen of it so far. So hopefully I will be better at posting to keep all of you updated on my travels here and what is going on.<br /><br />Until later,<br /><br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"><img style="BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; BACKGROUND: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT: 0px" src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/120/AD941FE984270AD47BDE9A430D4D6239.png" /></a>Jennhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11855577666671632706noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5789033105758693351.post-87385373375246041112010-01-18T11:55:00.002-06:002010-01-18T12:07:12.908-06:00Until Later...<div align="center"><span style="color:#000099;"><strong>So my name of my blog is actually going to be starting in a couple of days! </strong></span></div><div align="center"><span style="color:#000099;"><strong></strong></span> </div><div align="center"><span style="color:#000099;"><strong>But before I go on, just wanted to say that I had a great time on the cruise that I went on to the Bahamas on Norwegian Cruise Line.

I will spend the night up there and on the 20th I will get up really early and do my last bit of physicals. I think that the only things that they will really check is my weight, do a drug test and pregancy test and that should be it. I will swear in again, this time offically, and then I will be off to Great Lakes, IL to bootcamp. </strong></span></div><div align="center"><span style="color:#000099;"><strong></strong></span> </div><div align="center"><span style="color:#000099;"><strong>So right now, I am doing pretty good.

I am going with a girl from work, which should be a good time. We are going to be going to the Bahama's on Norwegian Cruise Line. Its a 4 night cruise and we stop at three ports.

For the past few weeks I have had to stop running because I have bursitis in my hip. It has been killing me that I have not been able to go running. I have a couple of more weeks of physical therapy left, and hopefully this will take care of the problem. If not, I will have to get a steroid shot in my hip that will take care of the problem. So I am thinking positive thoughts about the therapy so that I won't have to get a needle stuck in my hip! So far the therapy is working. It is still a little sore, but not as bad as it was when I first started going.</span></strong></div><div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:100%;color:#000099;"></span></strong> </div><div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:100%;color:#000099;"></span></strong> </div><div align="center"><strong><span style="font-family:lucida grande;font-size:100%;color:#cc0000;"></span></strong> </div><div align="center"><strong><span style="font-family:lucida grande;font-size:85%;color:#cc0000;">Well, I better get back to work.
