Hello all,
I’m P.S. from way back when. Took time off from here to have, raise 2 kids, work, etc. Stopped by every once and awhile, saw peeps come and go.
Most recently I received an email (which I’ll write about in another post) that I needed to broadcast to a larger audience than my family, so here I am again.
Quick summary of last decade plus, I retired from practicing medicine in 2016 with the intent to spend lots of quality family time (kids/husband), and with a planned WR <3% if something catastrophic happened to my working husband. My final memory of work was waving to a group of residents, standing by the elevator, as I whizzed past with my last batch of belongings in a wheelchair.
After 8 mo, my brain was not doing well, I was having frequent dreams of warm fuzzies while doing H+P’s on patients (nobody’s dream IRL), and the most challenging part of my day was how to make the school/errand runs most gas efficient. So I (enthusiastically) went back to w@!k PT and now help cover three hospitals for a mid-sized hospital system 1-3d/wk. For the curious, no... no call.
I will write more later about the leading up to and the first few months of (fake) FIRE, which is actually really interesting neurologically/psychologically.
p.s. Thank you to the mods and admin for helping me get back into my account!
