Home, home on the rangeeeeee!

So I've made it home! Many many hours later.....

Yesterday was NUTS! Started the day off with doing floats. What was supposed to be 14 ended up only being 7. It still took 4 hours though.

The afternoon was pretty tame. I helpped in Small animal, and did random things around the clinic. That was until 5pm... That's when my supervisor came in and said " Oh ASHLEYYY, guess what we have coming innnn!" The only thing that I have been wishing for every day for the past 6 weeks!! A COLIC SURGERY!!

Well, the horse went on fluids, was given some of the new drug that we had a meeting about, and then he got better, then worse, and then better, and then worse again....so they called in the surgery team, and then they came, and then they left, because yet again, the horse got better. Short of the long, I left and the horse hadn't gone on the table. I called the clinic this afternoon when I got home, and asked if it had gone to surgery, and it hadn't, so that made me feel better! :)

Once I got to the airport, I realized that I had forgotten my Bernie Brown prints at the clinic! I was TRAUMATIZED, and embarrassed at the same time. I say embarrassed because....oh my....because I couldnt hold onto the beer that I was holding....so I had to set down the prints in order to reposition the beer...and I forgot to pick the prints back up and bring them to the truck. So this afternoon I called the clinic to get them brought to the front, because on Monday my wonderful cousin is going to go and pick them up, and bring them to her wonderful husband who is going to pack them and ship them to me!

I thought that I was going to have a problem sleeping on the plane, despite the fact that it was a red-eye, however I was asleep even before the pulled us away from the gates! I woke up, only to realize that we were in the air, and that was a scary feeling. Very " how did I get here" kind of feeling. We flew from Calgary to Toronto on a 767. That was the biggest plane that I have ever been on. 2 window seats, 3 middle seats, followed by 2 more window seats. I always ask for a window seat, but because it was an airmiles flight, I often get stuck looking down at the wing. And where this was a 767...it had a VERY large wing. So even if I wanted to see anything, I couldnt have.

The layover in Toronto wasnt too bad. I kicked my bags under my seat and fell asleep for a couple of hours. Once I was on the jet to Charlottetown I fell asleep again! I didnt have anyone sitting beside me, so I was able to stretch out and sleep a little more comfortably.

When I got home, I immediately went and inspected my truck. She's a beauty! Very dirty on the inside, so I spent close to 2 hours inside cleaning her up. My dad jumped in with me and we drove up and down the street a few times. Only stalled it once, and that's because I didn't have the clutch in nearly as much as it was supposed to be. :)

Mom even had a cake made for me!!! It was very good!! A butter pecan cake minus the pecans!! hahah

Anyway, now I'm going to go to bed. Believe it or not, I'm still tired, so when I wake up tomorrow, maybe I can unpack more than just my PJ's!!
