20 MT
| February 28, 2011 | Posted by Melinda under Uncategorized |
Hey guys – 20MT didn’t go well. Pulled 92 miles, Farley is lame lame LAME. Soft tissue injury to LF, guess at this point is check ligament or deep digital flexor. Either way is bad news. Vet’s opinion at the ride was that it was probably a compensation injury due to getting cold/crampy during the […] more

I really wanted to save the title in this post for when I announced I got INTO vet school – but I’m impatient and so can’t wait. 🙂 The interview went very very well. I had mixed feelings about it right after finishing, but now, after 24 hours I can step back, look at my […] more
Vet update – Saturday
| February 19, 2011 | Posted by Melinda under Uncategorized |
I’ve just come back from the interview orientation and I have to say, that everything confirms my decision that I WANT to be a vet. It is the ONLY thing I want to do. Sometimes when you sit a room of your peers and watch people who are where you wish you were, it’s easy […] more

I have a ton of half-formed posts and topic floating around, and I think since life is marching onward at an alarming pace, the probability of me doing justice to these topics is rather slim. So, I’m going to do one of those random posts where I talk about a lot of different things, while […] more
Somebody got a haircut

I’m embarrassed to admit where I think my camera is. I’m pretty sure my camera is hanging in the barn on my bridle rack…..because my bridle is mysteriously on the front seat of my truck. Yep – just a little scatter brained right now. So, unfortunately I don’t have snazzy pics to show you’all of […] more
Part 3 – Selling your tack
| February 14, 2011 | Posted by Melinda under Uncategorized |
Can we just forget I got an interview, and go back to a semblance of normal life? Pretty please? Yeah……I can’t either. Interview practice last night with the darling (and very patient) boyfriend dissolved into hysterical laughter, and then hysterical crying, in which the boyfriend told me to go change the laundry over and think […] more
