Lizzie, Lately: Another one with a lot of pictures: December to May

December!

OR Day: Today´s challenge includes how to fit your specimen
for the patient to take home into the specimen container.
Yes, they wanted to take it home. No, we don´t really know why.

Happy Lille Yuleaften (December 23rd)
from the House Sitters and our dirty plates!
Never heard of this holiday?
Ask your nearest Scandinavian relative.

Feliz Navidad from Cinthia and I!

Lesson learned:
When you attack the boys on the hill
with water balloons on a sunny Sunday afternoon,
they just might wake you up on a rainy Monday morning
after you worked a night shift to throw them back at you.

January!

Look who came to visit!
(Yes, we are wearing matching shirts)

View from the Water Tower, on our hill-mountain thing

Oh, so cute. Almost ¨print it out for Grandma´s refrigerator¨ worthy

Little guy just wanted to help with music for Fellowship night
(He was rewarded with death shortly after. Thanks, Minions)

Group Activity during Respiratory System class

When the student teaches her teachers,

February!

¨Lizzie, on a scale from 1 to 25 how much do you love Ultimate Frisbee?¨
¨32.¨

Yes, we all wish we pull off that much cute and sass at one time.

We like our coworkers.
They let us kidnap their children and feed them ice cream and pop.
Then we send said children home. Enjoy, parents.

March!

Happiness is reuniting with old friends

And celebrating the lives of new ones

Community Star Wars Movie Night!

My parents came to visit!
Also, shout out to the child perfectly photo-bombing in the back.
I aspire to be you.

Sweaty, but happy:
my partner in crime (she also goes by Heather)
and I found the waterfall!

April!

Makeshift Tube Feeding for my patient on the ventilator:
refried beans, ice cream, water.

Erlinda is my hero.
And I´m not saying that because I couldn´t figure out the blender.
Nope.

Not that I´ve ever had a favorite anti-venom before,
but this is my new favorite.
A lot of prayer and about 20 vials of this anti-pit viper venom.
Adding this patient to the list of
"Those who shouldn't have made it, but did."

How to keep the ants away from your food:
If you can't outrun them, outsmart them.

Saturdays are Ultimate Frisbee days.
And this particular Saturday was also a Crash C-Section Day too.
Val (pictured) and I took care of baby
while Momma was in excellent hands in the OR.

May!
