Ooh, a dress my D designed for singer Megan Moroney landed on Fallon last night. She wasn’t even sure what the dress was for.

Son came in 1st in one of his bike races this weekend. He was in the top 3rd of the higher level race. So next time he will do the harder level and the level above that.

Son, doing specialty veterinary internship/residency in his first of 4 years, was formally offered a tenure track job by his university for when he is board certified. They will hold the position for the next two years when he will need to make his decision. If he decides to take it they will double his salery for his final year of residency. He is considering it and is very flattered. He is only the second person they have done this for!

I am on a layover right now, on my way to Botswana - solo! Not a group trip. Yay for me! I am a world traveler but usually with others. My husband can not tolerate all of the flying to get there anymore ( 4 flights plus a helicopter, to start). Friends can not afford it or they are just those I do not want to travel remotely with for 2 weeks. Ready to feel empowered and take care of me again. “This girl is on fire!”

For anyone following along with son’s racing, they canceled the 2 races that were supposed to happen this last weekend. He was kind of bummed

My daughter won a company-wide award - The President’s Award for Collaboration & Partnership. She works very hard and this is lovely recognition. They will have a formal award ceremony. (And she found out today on her birthday!)

Yesterday, I, a person in their 60s, and a young vet, a woman who was smaller than me, got a 1,100 pound horse rolled over and up all by ourselves*.
Members of the Fire Dept were standing by, but we didn’t need them. 
*(it takes some physical strength)
