Have you ever tried a frozen timbit? YUM!

I survived this stretch of overnights! After surgery on 3 nights in a row, too many deaths, too many stupid owners, and too many stupid vets, I finally got a break last night. The cardiac dog survived until morning, there was only 1 walk-in, and I actually got to sleep for an hour! And now I don't have to go back until friday night, hooray!

So once again work is consuming every second of my life for the next 4 days. This morning I stayed late to help another Dr with a surgery - he was all alone because we are short staffed, and this 130 pound, mature, fat mastiff came in for a spay (I can hear all the vet-type folk cringing and wincing).

Planning meals that will keep me from being hungry, that can be cooked on a campfire or better yet eaten cold, can be packed into a cooler and will not go bad if our crappy cooler doesn't work.

I have now been awake for 26 hours. And I randomly found an old boyfriend on facebook - the guy who broke up with me AFTER proposing to another girl, and then wouldn't speak to me or look me in the eye for years. So I sent him a "hi", let's see if he answers... hee hee :)

We have been planning to renovate... planning... talking about it... thinking about it... and finally we are doing the office. So we moved almost everything out today, and tomorrow we will rip up carpets, soon we will paint (bye-bye hideous train trim!) and then put new floors in. Very very excited.
