Forgive my stumbling around my new blogsite as I try to catch up with the rest of the 21st century. I’ll be posting something of actual reading value soon, and I hope you will come back often to see what’s new. I look forward to exploring some uncharted territory when it comes to recovering from burnout, and not just posting a bunch of bitter comments. Ok, well some of the comments will be snarky and bitter I’m sure. But I’m hoping there will be plenty of lovely moments peeking out like weeds between the cracks in the sidewalk.

I stumbled onto your blog via Kevin MD (“Why this pediatrician quit medicine”). You are a talented writer and I’m enjoying reading how you ended up where you are. I think the writing will help YOU understand it, too. I’m a transplanted Yankee to the Atlanta area. Still fill like a “foreigner” much of the time but there is a lot to like, too. Please keep writing!
Hi Mari-Ann,
Stumbling appears to be not so bad a thing! You are absolutely right – writing on this blog has definitely been a cathartic and introspective process for me, and I am glad people have been responding to it so positively.
We transplants to the south are pretty common! Hope you are enjoying it as much as I am.
Thanks for reading-
