First PHA Adventure to Milwaukee

So, I just finished my first PHA (periodic health assessment) through Logistics Health. They flew me out here yesterday from Minneapolis, and because you have to pay to check your bags now... people are carrying on EVERYTHING. And nobody is watching to make sure people are staying under their carry-on limit. Frustrating to find overhead bin space. But then I got here, and went to pick up my rental car. You know what kind of car I got? The car I have picked on the most since the day it came out. The PT Cruiser. So I'm driving around Milwaukee in a bright blue PT Cruiser. Very funny. I got to the hotel and THIS is what they got me... A suite at the Residence Inn.

And that is just the main part of the room.


And this is the view from my window. First you can see the river, and way at the end of the road is Lake Michigan and the weird building that looks like it has wings is the art museum.


I went for a walk downtown to the Lake Michigan. This is a picture of the outside of the art museum.

Then I had a meeting with the other providers from 9-10:30am.

Then I got up at 5:30am to get ready for the day. We headed out at 6:45am and went to the Navy Reserve center. Did histories, focused exams, and made suggestions for referrals. This is to keep the health up of the service members. It actually went pretty well for my first event. I will likely keep doing more of these as an extra income.

Now I'm just hanging out waiting to fly home at the crack of dawn tomorrow (Sunday).

In other news...

I FINALLY GOT MY ECONOMIC STIMULUS CHECK!!!

AND... MY DELL COMPUTER IS ON IT'S WAY!!! After 4 delays after ordering it Memorial Day weekend. It's shipped!!! Yay!!!

Wow, I thought everyone had gotten their checks already. And no laptop yet, either? I've had mine for probably a month now. I've even had to call tech support already. I'm sure none of this is any consolation to you though.
