February 5th

so tired today. it was completely impossible to wake up this morning. no time to make coffee because I woke up 25 minutes before I was supposed to be at work.. and I couldn’t make any last night since I needed to grind beans. 

I shoveled 3 bowls of froot loops into my mouth, and gave the chickens some mixed slop (luckily THAT I had prepped last night) then off to work I went. 

I started the day with 2 wildly crazy active beagles. oh, what fun that was. both are mildly overweight so more of a workout than “normal” beagles. 

I processed as many insurance faxes from Wednesday as I could, and briefly held a kitty cat for a progress exam and vaccine, while ALL the other staff worked on a highly aggressive/highly fearful/highly VOCAL dog..

then I helped shortly with temps on 2 little cutie adorable chihuahua mixed doggies.. from then I continued/finished insurance faxes. 

Lunch Break!! we were going to have tacos from the taco truck, Bob was bringing.. however he had not yet gotten them so I ate cold leftover pizza I had brought and sat in my truck to relax. 

back to work, I finished writing the insurance faxes I’d sent. 

then appointments started over again. I took in a sweet black lab for exam exam and vaccine and a nail trim. 

Next was a blood pull on a sweet little chihuahua, notating all her medications she’s on— and when last given. 

I helped hold a husky puppy for temperature and vaccination. 

Next we did an exam, lab work, and a vaccine on a paralyzed Cattle Dog. 

then I helped with X-rays on a painful little chihuahua who was owner protective. 

finished with temps on 2 wild and crazy Boston Terriers. 

one of the Beagles had lab testing throughout the day, I held for every one. plus her nail trim and her exam. 

and her wild n crazy beagle brother-husband.. I held for his exam and lab work and nail trim as well. 

it was a long day.. ate my pizza for lunch - 1 taco from the taco truck - piece of shake n bake chicken, before coming home and eating 1 bowl of rigatoni 😋

beddy bye time.. hooray 😴
