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.

To Be Honest.

I've been thinking a lot, and a lot has been going on.  Lorde radio on Pandora is a good way to zone out. So is sewing, and doing all those other mindless activities I love, and that keep me happy. I haven't written on this blog because to be honest, it's been difficult lately. To get the sob story quick and out of the way, I've been in a self-pity mode, and super down on myself. I had a very difficult time at BYU because of a crappy life occurrence that made the decision to leave the best decision of my life. It was hard to get my BFA between the BYU's when I transferred, and I couldn't work on a second diploma I was seeking. I ended up with the most amazing BFA situation though, and that has been a blessing. (And the most awesome thing happened too, obviously. --marriage! I would never ever change that!) The last year into my BFA I found out definitive stuff about my dystonia, including no children. And the nursing program chase has not be

Grateful.

Austin has been the best support. I definitely married out of my league.  He's been very proactive in finding lots of healthy things for my recommended diet (by the neurological disorder peeps, and an intolerance.) because my hemidystonia has had less spasms and cramps. As of lately, brown rice bread!  Seriously, it's great even if you don't need wheat-free. It's a nice change of pace! It's sweet and light. .:Recipe Here:. We grind our own brown rice to save money. Winco here in Idaho has  the best deal for bulk brown rice :)  Here's a crazy picture of my hand, this was actually the first spasm/cramp I've had in a bit. (Haha, least my nails are painted ;) ) This is actually why (for those of you who've asked) Intaglio will not be my last degree. I was informed that I've got a good chance of this happening to my right side too.  Art might get interesting! But I plan to keep doing it as a career too, no matter what!

Moonrise Bunnies

Thank you for the chocolate bunnies Carmen Family!! we may or may have not remembered it was easter? Such a Surprise! In sad news, our favorite video store is going out of business. We loved getting recommendations from the people who worked there. Austin and I had no idea our favorite date spot was going out and went to go get a movie.... and we ended up with this sweet stack!! (They sold them waaay discounted. We got all of these for the price of two new DVDs!)  It was funny because when we walked in and realized what was going on, we freaked out because we wanted our favorite movies! Everything Illuminated and Moonrise Kingdom (among others but these were the first ones that came to mind) And Everything Illuminated was gone! Austin freaked because he couldn't remember what Moonrise Kingdom was called. He said... EDWARD NORTON. WHICH ONE WAS THAT?? Of course I look at him like wtf are you talking about the Hulk or the Painted Veil or something? Fig
