Shoulder Deep

I'm exhausted.  I got four hours of sleep last night because I was studying for today's Medicine exam and had to SOAP my cow this morning.  It's been a seriously long week but a good week.  I helped perform an omentopexy and abdominal exploratory on a cow, I did my first epidural on a cow, and I placed my first IV catheter in a horse.  I really like getting hands-on experience.  It's sooo much better than sitting in a classroom.  This week I also got a bit more experience doing rectal palpation on my cow.  It's pretty awesome to be able to feel a calf in there! 

I've now had three sessions with my personal trainer, and I absolutely love it.  It's so nice doing something different for workouts.  My body is sore, but it's a feeling I love.  This weekend I'm at home with my family.  Tomorrow I'm getting a massage - I can't wait! 

Well, Monday is Valentine's Day, which I've always thought is a pretty ridiculous holiday.  I'm sure I'll be spending it with my cats as usual.  Sigh.
