Home Alone
I am home alone.
Hubby's been doing back-to-back calls. He is the one man in a one-man unit - no surgeon, no fellow trainee. And all this in a teaching hospital! The higher authorities want the show to go on. Comply, or risk being kicked out from the programme. Hardly a choice.
And so one man has to pack his clothes and move into the hospital. Watch TV with the nurses, eat out alone, send dirty laundry to his parents' house (nearer) and get bitten by bugs that occupy his call room bed.
And somewhere, about 90 km away, his wife comes home to an empty house everyday, finding no one to listen to her b***h about the horrible things that happened at work. She too has to dine alone, and is running out of meal ideas. Having now to drive herself in search for food, she sticks to familiar places (mainly along the route from home to hospital and back!) - she's been lost in this town on more than 1 occasion. She's fine otherwise. Laptop + Internet connection + DSLR + car that takes me places - man = FINE. Of course, Laptop + Internet connection + DSLR + car that takes me places + man = PERFECT!
Can't believe 1 month is nearly up. I will soon be home alone...no more.
