Hardwork and Fun


Even though I started school, I still had to get our farmer's market stuff canned. So pickles and more peaches, and wax beans and beets happened!




Also, we've been trying to cook a lot so we don't have to worry about it during the week. Easier said than done, we did end up eating at a pizza place that Food Network recognized as the best pizza in Wyoming! (They had GF!) Rightfully so, even our dessert was homemade ice cream. 

Here's a japanese egg (loaf?) called tomago I made one night. I was pretty proud of it, it's hard to make. I even have a the special pan it requires! It's the egg you see on sushi if that helps anyone! 


Friday night, because I worked a morning shift, we got to go out to enjoy UW to the fullest. Kristine (Austin's sister) brought her friend and we all went to the first sporting event -- Cowgirl's Volleyball. It was against the Idaho Vandals. Which was fun because we just escaped from there. (Not really. I liked Idaho. Not so much Rexburg lol.)

It was nice to go to a school that has sports teams and whatnot... Plus the Cowgirls won! It was a tight battle. Everyone thought we were in for, and then they turned around and smacked the Vandals. (Quite literally, one Idaho girl got a spike to the face.) I used to watch BYU's volleyball and holy crap I forgot how into it I get. 

After the game we all grabbed some 1/2 price shakes at Sonic's! Yay for actually having a Friday night between students of nursing, physiology, environmental studies, and law! 

Sheesh we need to get out more.

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...

Snowglobes of Wonder and Joy

I made snowglobes!  I've always loved those, even as a little kid. Then I saw DIY's on Pinterest, and thought.... Why hadn't I thought of making them before?? So in a nutshell, jars, hot glue, brush christmas trees (or anything plastic-y) glitter... and then to fill the jar, distilled water, glitter and some corn syrup to thicken it! I made all of these (already had jars) for $4.00! We attempted a gingerbread house with some friends... as you can see it looks like a crackhouse.    So... I think it's best I stick with the kind of art I know haha! I made a lot of books this break, and Austin can't complain cause he's an Eng. Lit.  He's been busy cooking some more amazing meals and snacks! Those are a healthy alfredo with quinoa base, and the other are applechips! Visit our Recipe page for cooking instructions .:here:. Also, for those who don't already know after my super obnoxious facebook excitement...

Flying Solo

Austin's been a solo man as of late....  I got super sick with a bacterial infection (as of late, more tests to come.) But before that was Austin with a 5 day flu, and then me with the flu, and then when I got better from that, I got an infection woot woot! Healthy over here! I got super flu-y again over the weekend and I won't go into details. I got a bit better and I had been fine to go teach a class on Monday at my college because I had gotten over what I though to be whatever Austin had. Then Tuesday went to my CNA class. And while I was there I was talking to a friend. She was telling me about her annoying apartment neighboors and I shouted, " UM... I'mma be sick hold on...." And I swear to St. Maria I have every trash can mapped out in that EITC building because when I went bursting down the hallway to the bathroom, it felt like friggin videogames and finding checkpoints.  I ended up cleaning the EITC bathroom stall for them.... let's...
