Merry Halloween?

Wyoming has been presenting us with this:
(not at all unusual btw)




Juno was freaking out, it's her first snow experience!

As my friend told me today, " It's like kitty heaven --everything is moving in the sky!!"

I've been getting myself pumped up anyway for this "fall" festivity that is Halloween. Only my favorite. Pumpkin Caaand--daaahyy! Austin is ready to carve pumpkins this coming weekend! Customers at work always comment on my nails through the drive-thru... so I surprised them with some Holiday Spirit. 



Orange coat, green tips, sharpie face and a clear coat sure spreads some holiday scares... ;)

Since I have a long day Tuesdays and Thursdays (Austin just always has long days haha) my friend who also waits around for his class for a few hours ( hey... we ride the bus and can't go home easily) was talking about horseshoes, chess, and darts etc. We got the brilliant idea to play chess in between classes, and it started with a paper board and paper towel cut-out pieces. I don't have a board, but I have legit stone pieces. So tonight I made a board that's a cloth drawstring bag for easy travel :)


Now I have to learn poker really well too, because work has a poker night with some peeps. LOVE strategy games, and so does Austin. He can't wait to get outta midterms so he can play too!

On another note, I was sooo excited to do Insanity not missing a single day. The past two times I just did it through, making up days if I missed one. This time I was so excited to beast through it since I've already lost the weight and wanted to do muscle toning. Nope. I definitely got sick with exhaustion and spilled my beans one morning after work and said screw it for two days. Midterms and working almost full time and dystonia sometimes just mixes the perfect storm! That left me with a poster like this... So chin up and I'm repeating this week through. 


Third time's a charm, and Adidas is lucky. 


This girl's gotta get Insane! xoxo from Wyoming!

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...

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...

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...
