Randomness of Paris, TX

I thought this was a story my fellow PT's would enjoy. After work last night, I stopped by the grocery store by our house. So I of course was still sporting my work shirt that has PT physical therapist on it. The young, very, ummmm let's say naive, cashier asks, "are you a physical therapist." To whichI replied "yes." Then cashier asks, "so what do you have to do to become a physical therapist? Do you just have to sign up for a class at PJC?" (local junior college) Yep sweetie just takes ONE course at a JUNIOR COLLEGE to get a master's/doctorate and treat patients. WOW! I think my face was priceless at that point. I wish it was that easy! I could have started all this at 18!!!!

Sorry I have fallen off of the blog-wagon but this last week has been hectic! Not to mention all the snow, but we had to work our first weekend together. That was interesting to say the least! During the week I work at one hospital doing mostily rehab, but also any CCU, psych, or step down cardiac patients while Jeremy sees all the acute/ortho/post op day surgery patients at the other hospital. This way we only see each other at home. Well for the weekend, on Saturday I covered my usual case load and he covered his. But on Sunday I was on his stomping grounds, having Dr. Nelms direct me (first time EVER at the south hospital for me, I was so lost!) Needless to say, 6 days straight without a day off and then working a day together not so good on the marriage!!! But we survived. And at least we only have to do that once every 7 weeks or so. ...
