No, I am not retiring. But I am sad that two of my favorite TV shows are over and finished. I am of course referring to Game of Thrones and Big Bang Theory. I was really rooting for more dragons, but at least I got the reunion between Jon Snow and Ghost, the dire wolf.
I especially liked the ending for Big Bang Theory. Nerds need love too, and friends to help them be their best versions of themselves. Girls can be geeks too. Vets in general are pretty nerdy. We actually have a higher suicide rate than many other professionals.
We are also saying goodbye to one of our staff, Kayla. She got married recently and will be moving to be with her husband in the Navy. We wish her well, and hope she finds another animal hospital with which to share her talents. We lost 2 staff women to relationships last summer. Something must be in the water.
I also have three grass fed steers ready to graduate to the freezer. Most people get ½ a cow ( ~300# of meat), or split it with another close family member. See Blog 100 for more info about the meat.
The last ending is my son’s college days. He graduated last week from University of Texas at Dallas with a degree in Electrical Engineering. He was my home schooled child, and this achievement is very sweet for me too. I am so proud of him. Yes, the Aggie in me had trouble writing those checks to the University of Texas system. So I am no longer a single mother with 2 school aged kids, but happily remarried wife now for 14 years with 2 adult, college graduated, married children, and one grandchild.
“All Good Things” was also the title of the final episode of Star Trek/ Next Generation, which coincidentally was aired on May 23, 1994, exactly 25 years ago today! I can’t wait to see the new Picard Series.
Life is good.
