i've landed back here after a few months. some things have happened i'd like to share with whoever reads this and document for myself to look back at. gareth got a job a couple months ago. it's a good job with regular hours. not exactly what he thought he'd be doing but i don't think he really knew what he wanted to do anyways. so he's happy with this. we got a new dog a little while ago too. her name is chloe. she came through my work as the mother of ten puppies who were all in a court case for about a month and i fell for her. introduced her to colby and they became buddies so we took her home to foster and possibly adopt. we quickly decided to adopt and she's now a part of our family. i got into the vet tech program and classes start in about two months. i'm going down to part time just before that. i'm looking forward to doing less work and more learning. in the meantime i've been doing all the work to get my loan and supplies. i've gone on the road with the large animal ambulatory service a couple times now and seen some interesting things. i've been taking horseback riding lessons for a few months now. getting better but still nowhere near where i used to be. don't really know where i want to go with it but i'm having fun jumping again. i've been hanging out with the girl who's horse at my barn had surgery. the horse is doing very well now. the girl actually quit working at my clinic but got a new job that seems very promising. we've been running at the battlefield with our dogs. it's been nice to get out with someone with similar interests. i'm going to try to get a bike soon. looking forward to the rest of my summer here. we got another year at our place. i'm happy about that staying the same and some of the things above that have changed : ]
