A New Chapter

Since May life has been busy mostly just with work. I've been working some overtime to help the kennel side out. Its nice to get extra money and i never mind helping them as i have been in there shoes so anything to help relieve them i'll do it. I've been trying to start my externship but kept getting turned down. So i recontacted a place in the beginning and they said they could probably take me in the fall. So contacted them again few weeks a go and said she would get back to me shortly..still hasn't gotten back so will probably have to call again and follow up. It's really stressful waiting and waiting for someone to contact me back when i am trying to finish schooling. I hate putting this crap off. I just want to be done! I could have been done by now if i lived in an area that had more opportunity for large animal or if Penn Foster didn't require large animal. Anyway keep trucking i guess. That is my fall behind..school Been doing physical therapy once a

Been about 5 months or so since i have blogged. I always say I am going to do it more often but never do. I will recap what life has been like since than: The winter months went by in a blur.

I have been looking since December and it's May now and i had to unfortunately reach out very far, Cornell NY far. AND i am going to have to more money to actually get my skills done there. Thankfully work is counting it as a CE day and i wont have to use my vacation and i can use $250 of my CE for the trip. I will have to drive 6 hours th

So I have been at the new job since November 29th and things are going great! I never realized how busy I was at cape that I would just come home exhausted/stressed or anxious. I feel like a weight has lifted off my shoulders. It's not that I disliked working their it just became a lot of stress especially with the distance I was driving. I think that made it really hard. I don't regret being there at all I was just ready to move on to someplace closer and different. So far I am enjoying the larger clinic aspect. I mean not all larger clinics are like this one but its so nice to have HELP when things get crazy. Different set of eyes and minds coming together. Being able to talk to other doctors on cases and such. Just having so many extra hands is nice. All of them usually willing to help when needed. Yes I have less responsibility and I do not do surgery as much or dental at all yet but it doesn't bother me too much. There has been crazy days at work according to the
