Just another Manic Monday


Actually Mondays at CHUB (the hospital where I work) aren’t really all that bad. It just seems like it sometimes. We had only a few admissions over the weekend, and the day has so far been tranquil. I am sure that as I write this, something will happen. There is an old saying in Medicine that if you use the word "quiet" or "slow," that is when things start to get crazy!

Weekends in Butare are very chill. Not much nightlife, no live music. There are a few clubs in town which cater to the younger crowd. I am now "over the hill," so I rarely do the club thing anymore. 


It is mostly just hanging out at home, watching TV, reading, or small projects.

My current thing is to make furniture out of pallets, you know, those wooden planks nailed together that are used in shipping and cross country freight. Here, you have to pay a small amount for it, but the wood is fairly strong, not chemically-treated, and can be used in any number of designs. I will send pics along as soon as I am able.

It is a busy week at my house, as I have 2 visitors who are teaching in Internal Medicine and one in Neonatology (newborn babies). This also means a lot of interesting discussion.

OK, back to work. Talk to y'all tomorrow.

Love life, Find meaning, Be happy,

Craig
