A Good Week

This week has been just as busy as all the others! I have had so much packed into it, I am not sure how I managed LOL. Tho even I have to admit most of my 'week' started Wednesday. I had to do a few errands on Wednesday, nothing big. I had a GREAT day at HAWK Center Thursday. We had to take the GHO (Great Horned Owl) from Harmony to the vet to get her wing X-Rayed to see if she was healed enough to have the pin removed. She was healing great according to HAWK's wonderful vet Dr. Key at Southwind Animal Hospital, but she was going to have to keep the pin for another two weeks. Here she is in between X-rays.. NOT a happy camper! She did NOT like being out and she did NOT like being handled but it was for her own good! I have to say after holding her like this for 20-30 minutes or so my arm is a bit sore. Haha, I have lost my 'baby muscles'. I guess I need to do some weight lifting.
After we got the Harmony GHO back to HAWK we got in another GHO, this one from Rudy, that had been caught on a barbed wire fence. So back to Dr. Key we went. We watched her sew this very large female up. She was nearly four pounds! Quite a bit larger than the 'Harmony'. This is Dr. Key (on the right) checking the second GHO's wounds from the wire before her suturing and HAWK's Director Lynne (on the left) holding the 'Rudy's' legs and keeping her from biting Dr. Key.
My day was cut a few minutes short at HAWK because my daughters elementary school was evacuated for the second time due to smoke in the building. So I drove down to get her. School was cancelled that Friday. We spent the day shopping, eating lunch and more shopping, before we had to go pick her very unhappy sister from school. I have spent the time not out driving around this week on the phone and working online. My Granda who has Alzheimers went into the hospital with pancreatitis, so I have been on the phone a lot with family. He is going to be ok thank heavens. I have bought the soundtrack to WICKED :) I have been listening to it constantly. I think it's driving my family insane... but I can't bring myself to care!! I LOVE it.This post seems to have gone all over the place, but my mind seems to be doing the same thing!! I just started Marliss Meltons 3rd book in her Taskforce Series ENFORCER. I already love it. After reading her blog on my last post if your interested in reading the series: Marliss Melton is pleased to announce the release of all three Taskforce Series novels in one boxed set (available in all e-book formats, no paperback).
