Free At Last. AKA National Med School Match Day

Post by devildeac » March 18th, 2017, 3:33 pm

Dateline: March 17, 2017

Claire and David John moving to Chicago sometime after late May/early June, 2017 for Claire to start her Pediatrics residency at University of Chicago on July 1. The devildeacs are thrilled and excited for this momentous occasion. David John completes his PhD on May 12, Claire her MD on May 13. They'll start house/apartment hunting next week and will move when their (our :ymblushing: ) house sells and they can pack up the moving truck and head to the (sometimes) frozen tundra for the next 3 (or more) years. Of course, this means the devildeacs are finally free of higher education (and wedding =)) ) expenses for a long, long, long, long time. Hopefully, forever. :D

Congrats to all!

We'll be in Chicago on Sept. 30th, the day after we beat Miami :9f: on Friday night, for a few days! I'm sure they'll be too busy for us to pester them, so we won't.

If you find yourselves with gobs of extra money, I'm sure I can help you redirect some of it! :ymdevil: B-)

Thank you kindly to all who have responded and looked in on them over the last few years. A few extra $$ toward tuition and/or wedding expenses during that time would have been nice, too, but I digress.
