Puppy Name announcement amount other random sick ramblings
| April 15, 2011 | Posted by Melinda under Uncategorized |
I think the moment I fully realized that this was something beyond allergies, was when I sat in my truck yesterday staring into space. For 1 ½ hours. I may have even napped. Just sat there, without any desire to do anything except sit there with my eyes slightly unfocused. OK. So the coughing, sneezing, […] more
Guest blog cartoon
| April 13, 2011 | Posted by Melinda under Uncategorized |
I comissioned a cartoon from my cousin (who has her own blog – which is in my blog roll somewhere) based on Funder’s comment (she has a blog too) recently. She asked (rhetorically) whether, when the horse is scooting towards home and the rider is trying to go a different direction, if the cussing actually […] more
Meet the puppy
| April 13, 2011 | Posted by Melinda under Uncategorized |
May I introduce you to……the new puppy. She tugged at my heart strings ever since the breeder told me she was the runt and different, and she was looking for the right match for this particular puppy.

Hey ye’all – I’m off hiking the wonders of the California coast, enjoying sunshine and temps […] more
Hiding behind a curtain
| April 8, 2011 | Posted by Melinda under Uncategorized |
Ummm…so I thought I had a post topic today. And then I realized that I’m really too busy being distracted by EVERYTHING to take anything seriously. Spring Fever! Backpacking trip this weekend! Way too much caffeine this morning! Vet School! Puppies! Awesome sprint workout yesterday! Fat Lazy Pony! (Whose name just might be Farley and […] more
Senoritis
| April 6, 2011 | Posted by Melinda under Uncategorized |
…except I’m not a senior. Whatever it is, I have it BAD. I was teetering on burnout and then I found out about vet school. Once I found out about vet school, it shifted to being physically painful to go to work and put in the time and maintain the barest semblance of keeping it […] more
