Did I mention I just took my kids to meet "Turtle Man" YEEYEEYEE LIVE ACTION in real life?! He's at a hunting expo here in town. They wouldn't take a pic for me or else I'd share it.

LOL. Same thought.
Call me elderly, but at least my arches won’t be sore!

Right on Tes!

That looks awesome. If you end up getting it, I’d love to see the progress you make on it.
I don’t know if my tank project will happen anytime soon. I have 1.5 weeks before school starts and a lot to do.

Will do! I plan on taking lots of pics. I am looking forward to this project. I think it will do an excellent job of distracting me from the far more important and pressing task of writing my dissertation prospectus


So yeah, don’t be like me. Finishing school is good.

I can’t remember, are you wanting to transfer to A&M or somewhere else?
I wanted to get a job at a clinic this semester but now I’m thinking it would be more wise to get shelter volunteer hours (through the BIMS student group), and start applying to clinics in summer when some of the college kids leave.

It’s weird, but I’m more looking forward to next semester than this one. I’ll know my way around, have higher class registration priority, have a better parking permit, etc.

A&M is my primary goal, but I’m not opposed to other schools. Vet school is already hard enough to get into without limiting choices down.
I’m almost done with my transferable classes and then I’m looking at Tarleton to finish out the animal science degree. It’s just closer to home so that way I’m not several hours away if something happens while I’m not in vet school.

I think that’s a good idea. Luckily there’s isn’t any vet schools / ag schools up here so I have a decent chance of landing a position even if it’s just volunteering in a clinic. I’m also looking at an externship at a equine clinic that services the Lone Star Park racetrack.

No.. those are the ones I’m looking forward to.
You can have biochemistry.

I also just realized that there are no parking permits left. I have one for a parking garage all the way across campus... I’m going to be walking a lot this semester.

Sorry you might have to put the tank project on hold.

And aw that stinks! Maybe a spot will open up?

And that’s not weird!! Makes total sense!!

Ive been known to stay up all night finishing essays and sometimes even research papers I started the day before the due date. usually with the research ones though I at least did the research a little bit beforehand or typed a page or two but not always. And even by beforehand I still mean like week of.

Still graduated though.

That sounds awesome!!! Hopefully you get it!!!

But also..... stupid question..... what is an externship?

Felt like this was worthy of posting.


(Even though I burnt the squash yet again. )

it's always a good idea to follow your dreams, even if it's really hard. Good luck and keep moving forward, no matter how fast or slow, keep going.

61!? Omg!

Yes, over a period of three weeks. Cracked corn tossed on the ground 10 feet away...like shooting fish in a barrel.
Always just sat and waited for another one to come out.

Here Tes order you some nice walking shoes.View attachment 1879109

Love the search...elderly!

Those look like some comfy shoes to go with some comfy scrubs.
Mmm. Pasty white, Velcro straps... they’re calling my name.

LOL. Same thought.
