winterweather in Louisville

I finally got to experience what it means when snow hits the ground in Louisville. This morning was the worst driving experience ever.... They just do not really know how to handle snow around here. The big four lane Interstates were not cleared this morning. So there was just this really, really wide white lane... I had no clue if I was in one or two lanes... I drove really slow, but there were people going really fast and there were truck going fast and coming close and that was the scariest part. Several times I was getting ready to drive off to the side and just wait till they passed me. They were scary. Over all it took me three times as much to get down town today, but when I finally pulled into the parking lot I was really relieved and it was fun to walk to the hospital in the snow. But those trucks really, really scared me this morning. Usually I pass them, but today.... Things were very different. I just hope that it will not get too much worse and that the main roads will stay cleared.....
But then in the hospital I got to know a new side of my "favorite" resident... He let me put an arterial line it - I asked if I could give it a try, he said he didn't care and since I had never done it before, only drew arterial blood, he walked me through the steps first. I could barely believe what happened. He did do a great job explaning, just like during that last night at Kosair... I just don't understand why he keeps hiding that side of himself and acts like such a jerk most of the time, cause if he wants to he can really be a great teacher!!!!! And I manged to find the arterie and place my first arterial line without any complications!!!! That was really cool!!!!! I am glad I can cross that off my list of things I have not done yet as well.....
