Got to work with some great animals today. I gave a baby squirrel a bubble bath. I fed and cleaned a diamondback terrapin. Got to feed 3 young owls and a Red-shouldered hawk.
Afterwards I went out for a belated birthday lunch with my favorite clinic coworker. She got super sick on her real birthday, so I took her out for lunch today. We don’t normally get too much time to talk at the clinic, so we ended up having out for 4 hours.
Came home and replaced my ancient router. Got a Flint 2 and flashed it with OpenWRT. My old one lasted me 10 years when I looked it up, so I got my money’s worth out of that one. I’ve been having to reset it every day or so.
Made homemade curry udon (made the noodles and curry from scratch). Super tasty. I love the texture of homemade noodles.
Going for a quick getaway for 3 days. I usually plan trips, but the wife is spearheading this one, so I’m curious to see what she has planned.
I got 3 new CPAP masks coming to try. Very exciting! 😄 Trying to improve my nasal breathing and mask leak is driving my nuts with my full face mask.
And then next weekend is the clinic’s open house event. I have 2 tables I’m running. My owl table will have life sized replicas of all 8 owls of our state. I made plushies of the 2 most common owls. They are approximately life sized premade plushies I got, and I opened them up and stuffed them with beans to bring them to their correct weights. People can hold them since they can’t touch our animals. I’m also doing a table on DIY animal houses for people’s yards. It’s going to be a stressful fun, as it’s freaking with privacy 2000 strangers, but I love teaching people about our wild pals, and it will raise a heap of money for our center.
So a lot going on, but all things I actually enjoy for the most part. I’ve been having a fairly difficult year, so I’m really looking forward to a big block of fun.
I’ve got an exciting week going on.
