I am thankful for projects that have ended.
Omaha.net, Life with Dogs, Banfield Journal, AVMA landing page (one project), Carefresh social media content writer, Veterinary Economics board member, Gentle Doctor social media, Nebraska Poodle Rescue, Pug Partners of Nebraska website articles (one project)...All of these were wonderful, and all have ended. I was sad to see each one go, but another opportunity seems to always come up.
This Thanksgiving...
I am thankful that in 1997, the AVMA President told me I would never find a job as a veterinarian in Denver. She was giving a "motivational" talk to our veterinary class. She said that veterinary jobs were everywhere, unless we wanted to live in Denver or work with marine animals. I went up after the talk and explained my situation to her. "I would be able to find a job in Denver, wouldn't I?"
"No," she said. "Absolutely not."
Denver - No! You cannot work here!
Our whole plan for after I finished veterinary school was to move to Denver for Russ to go to graduate school at Denver Seminary. We were locked into our plan by our own excitement and stubbornness, so we saw no other option than to move to Denver where I would find the said to be non-existent veterinary job.

Being told I cannot do something is always a huge motivator for me. :) I applied for several jobs and accepted a job with Columbine Animal Hospital within days of arriving in Denver.
