Thursday Day Off

Every other Thursday I have the day off due to my class schedule, which is wonderful. It gives me the time to catch up on housework and homework. I only have some light reading today and a few problems, so hopefully only about 4-5 hours of homework to do. The housework has been kept up by sun-and-stars lately (bizarre as that is), and I have been loving coming home to a semi-clean house every day. His standards aren't quite up to mine, but it is one less thing I have to worry about on a daily basis, and I very much appreciate the help.

Taz's neck has cleared up, which I am very happy to see. Of course, we took Rem-dog's urine in because I thought she might have a UTI (she has leaked a few times in the past couple of week, which is pretty weird for her), and they found excess phosphate crystals in it, but no infection. That means ultrasounds and/or x-rays to see if she has bladder stones, and possibly surgery if she does and they are large enough. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it's nothing.

So my day looks like homework, cleaning stalls, maybe taking Rem over to get looked at, and heading up to school in the evening to drive wanna-be SPCA volunteers to the shelter. We had over 30 students sign up to get oriented (which I know will be overwhelming for the shelter, unfortunately). Friday I will be up there again helping with their spay and neuter clinic, Saturday I will be shadowing at the ER, and Sunday I will be heading out to the goat farm to meet the new baby goats! So I have a very fun, animal-filled tail end to my week.
