Buckets of Surprises

Juno has been attached to us when we come home from work... literally (she jumps inbetween your legs and purrs and rubs while you walk causing many a trips and tumbles). She waits and waits, and watches what you're doing. And like the classic cat, she has to be a part of it. While I make my lunch, she's gotta hop up to see what's happening too (no, there will be no cat-hair sandwiches on my watch.) Shoo kitty shoo....

Still love you and that you love me!


Banished. lol. 

I came home from work today much greeted by Juno, and by the crazy thunderstorm. As you can see we have the roofers over because our house needs a lot of work. 

Well, half the roof is stripped. Which means I had to get five buckets out to catch the flooding from the ceiling lol! Juno was freaking out because of the LOUD thunder cracks, and a wave of rain hit her in her favourite window. Then the ceiling got her wet too lol. Poor thing was out of her mind.



Surprise! 

I also got another surprise though --a birthday present from my cousins and Aunt! Michelle (cousine) does such wonderful jewelry and has a store:

visit .:Here:.

(fifthandmay.com)

She sent me a Wyoming 14k gold state necklace and it is soo cute and dainty! And just to throw a little hoo-rah out to her store, most of her stuff is $10 and below. The special necklaces like this one she sells for $12.95!


Also in the package they sent me, was a lunchbox that is cuter than heck. It's not so lunchboxy. If you know me I carry these things everywhere because I can't really eat out or eat other people's food. 


Plus, my latest lunchbox (and boy was it old) died a horrible death in a food item explosion. 
Perfect timing.

I did save my keys and my hamster keychain. I was half tempted to throw him out, but I just couldn't... the guy has been one of those odd things you save from when you are little... one of those weird nonsensical things that have always been a part of your life. 

So he got a dawn soap bath. 

If you think this is pathetic, you should have seen him even before the explosion.
 
 
After all those happenings, (because I have to get up at 3:30am) I had to have me a bowl of my faaaavourite thing right now before I sleep --pao di quiejo.I always bake tons of it because it can be used for everything. I make buns, rolls, and mini muffin bites. My favourite recipe is on our recipe page. Last night I was craving a burger, but a good ol' fast food kind. So I made some pao di quiejo buns, got a burger from Wendy's with Austin and holy crap I died. (Dude, this stuff is cheesy bread. A cheesy bread freaking Baconator. YEAH.) 
 
Glorious. Warm cheesy bread. 
 

 


And with that, good night and sweet dreams of deliciousness. 
 
xoxo from this 14k decked out Wyoming girl ;)

The Last Stretch

I am on the last little stretch before the surgery! It's amazing how in denial I can still be, thinking that I do not have anything wrong. But then you get a wake up call when your body does funky things you can't stop, and then you fall down the stairs twice. Once I popped my shoulder, and the second I popped a hip and broke my back molar coming down on my side. So I got that tooth fixed ASAP, thank the heavens it didn't damage any roots! At the dentist my mouth was opened for an extended period of time, and needles were involved. Just when you think you have this whole Dystonia thing under control.... another reminder! I got lock jaw while working as a floor nurse! My jaw had increasing pain through the week, and I revisited the dentist. Nothing wrong with my tooth. At work, it sealed shut (and not to be gross) but when you have an intense cramp like that, it causes immense pain. I do in fact throw up sometimes from the pain. Well if your mouth seals... and tons...

Call Me a SAHM in Training

Stay at Home Mom (SAHM)  Besides a medical leave and two maternity leaves, I’ve always been a full-time plus on call nurse mom. I am now almost two months into being a SAHM and I would have to still say I’m training! A lot of you have told me routine is so important, and I’ve been trying my darndest to do that. We do library time or errands in the morning, naptime and quiet time after lunch, and art and outdoor/indoor active  play until dad comes home! Some days it blows up in my face, much like what we’d call a s-tshow at work, haha! Except these are my monkeys and my circus! But mostly because I am learning and loving it, too. I struggle with anxiety and depression. Ever since I was little. My post-partum depression with R was so difficult. I am so lucky to have an incredible husband and health team that honestly kept me alive during that time. Luckily, I was treated prior to giving birth to A too because a) it was known I get PPD and b) it’s better and easier to tr...

Sunday Eats

Finals are upon us! Wish us luck!  So a little about life lately... or you can skip to the awesome food at the bottom lol. Well, we might need that luck especially cause I kicked a stool on accident in the print lab and broke two toes all crazy like. Then proceeded in my 12 hour no-break printing frenzy standing on them dang toes.... and sick.....lol! That's what I get for not wearing my brace. Good thing we are done with Insanity! That's right, you heard us! Done with Insanity, the 9 week program :D We both are going to take our pictures soon and post them! We are doing hip hop abs for the next two weeks as finals are happening (and it's less intense on my toes) then starting Insanity all over. Yes, we are insane thank you ;) We actually were kind of freaking out because this fall, we apply to law and nursing school! We finish in April, but will hear most likely in the winter where we will head out to.  I might wait to apply until Austin chooses a scho...
