Humpday...

Today was a continuation of the catch-up day I had yesterday at work. Not as much horse work as yesterday, but more office work. I think I actually might be starting to catch up.

Yesterday started at CHS with a lameness that turned out to be pretty simple. Over the lunch hour, I held a Board of Health subcommittee planning meeting for some work we plan to do concerning the unwanted pet population and what can be done to reduce the problem in the future. The afternoon was consumed with a respiratory work-up on a 6 month old Percheron that appears to be a chronic sinus infection that had to be trephined and lavaged for treatment. After dropping off culture and cytology samples at the VMTH, I had to run out to do an insurance exam on a horse that was scheduled to be sold-pending the exam results, of course.

Tomorrow, I think I can get the rest of the way caught up on office work in time to take a couple of hours off over lunch for a bike ride in the forcasted mid-50 degree weather.
