Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving. I am looking forward to the good food. We are going to go to Tim's grandparents. It will be nice to see everyone.
Well, today I have a test in Animal Husbandry & then we are off until next Monday. Even though I have to work the day after Thanksgiving it will be nice to have off Thursday & Saturday. Yay!!!
Final exams are in less than two weeks. Gulp!! It's hard to believe this quarter is almost over. We have learned so much this fall. We have done so many things...techniques that I assumed we wouldn't do until next quarter or even spring quarter. We've already learned how to put in IV catheters & to intubate a dog (while monitoring the dog under anesthesia). On Monday we get to put in a urinary catheter!!! Yesterday we had our breeds talks. Everyone had to pick a dog or cat breed at the beginning of the quarter. Then we had to write a paper on that particular breed about all the common health problems seen in that breed. Then yesterday we did a Power Point presentation on it. It was my first ever Power Point presentation. Needless to say I actually like it because everyone is looking at the big screen instead of me. LOL!! I picked the Italian Greyhound (since Greyhound was already picked). Anyways...I better stop writing & get back to studying & getting ready...I have to take my test in an hour!!!

2 new additions to our home.


Here they are...the rodents finally made it home!! They arrived yesterday & Sassy is captivated with them. I'm still trying to figure out what to name them. They are housed in a 10 gallon for now until I get a permanent cage for them. At least the 10 gal is bigger then what they were housed in at school.
