POWER TOOLS!

so today i got to play with the pressure washer ALL DAY!! It was fantastic! The arms and shoulders hurt a little bit, but it was so much fun!! Eating lunch my hands were totally numb and still tingling/vibrating :p It was histerical!

We are slowly gutting out the stalls in the barn and getting them all cleaned out (aka why we need the power washer :p back and forth back and forth on the floor...then up and down on the walls...) so we can paint everything..You wouldn't believe how skank the stalls get, the only way to get all the dirt off is with the power washer, there is no other way! It just sticks to everything! I smell disgusting and I'm covered in grime. It's fantastic! I think I want to learn how to use MORE power tools when i get home. My next goal is a drill. If i can use a drill I will be satisfied. Dad, you mission should you chose to accept it...help give your daughter the handy-man skills to survive on her own! aka, plumbing...electric...how to use tools (aka a wrench?) OH and I REALLY want to learn to change a tire... and check my oil...

Don't you love my new found independance ;)

Anyways, we had a WICKED thunder and lightening storm last night! It went on all evening and over night. But the ground was so partched that everything was almost dry by this morning where it should have been flooded!

I spent all last night calling clinics and applying for externships. My own fault that many of the places are full...This summer went by so quickly that I'm applying too late. grrr...Ill find something I hope :( Some potential at a clinic in Kingston?? Maybe?? I'm going to keep trying all this week. So far I'm trying to stay in Southern Ontario, but I really want an equine/small animal clinic so I might have to look farther north or out of province. Sigh...i'm angry at myself, but trying not to stress. It will work out.

Ok, off to shower off this awesome smell.
