Pup Watch & Staying Busy …
As a first time mom, Georgie and her pups are doing great! She has even adjusted to having a whelp-mate in the nursery, as Gina is waiting for her pups to arrive (- and growing bigger by the minute!) … So, DH and I are staying close. I’m so grateful we have a finished basement …
A Quiet Week …
After Michigan’s first snowfall of the season (Monday) and a stressful weekend at work, I decided on a low energy, restful week. We made some comfort foods (nachos, mostaccioli and quesadillas), played with pups and talked about Christmas plans. I made a card and moved some dichro cabs along: On a positive note …
Slump and a kick-start!
So, I’ve been quiet. I usually don’t get that way for too long …. I was in a creative slump. Apparently, I was feeling stressed. But now, with ENPC (Emergency Nurse Pediatric Course) and a large chunk of of nursing competencies completed … I feel better. The fact that I can say ‘see you next …
Christmas 2014
We had some fun Christmas moments this year: We (as a family unit) decided we needed to hit a few more stores on Christmas Eve … It’s quite an adventure if you haven’t tried it. All sorts of interesting people-watching to be done, including us at times: We found a hat just made for modeling …
Beyond baby steps …
Minute by minute?? Yeah – that’s about right. Here’s the scoop: My grandma is rallying; She has a trach, peg tube, foley and a tube in her gallbladder; per the specialist doctors (rehab), she suffered a major neurologic event at some unknown time … Is she down and out? Nope – NOT My Grandma. She’s …
Cabin Fever?
We have so many great things going on right now, and yet: We have puppies (and they’re so stinkin’ cute)! And a houseful of mood swings/raging hormones – thanks to twin teenagers … I’m finally growing skin/healing! Yay!!! And, it’s tax season … I’ve made some new bracelets, learned new patterns! And, …
I did say crazy – Right?!?
Oh, yeah – you betcha! But, I almost have the coffin kiln loaded with ornaments and ready to run. Look at what I made tonight … It’s ‘Ornament Central’ up in here … Why? I dunno …but I like it! The days are ticking down to the art show, and I still have so much …
It’s crunch time …
The next 8 days are gonna be so crazy/busy … good thing I love stress! I have adorable kids to get me through! The babies will start moving on to their new homes starting next week … but, we are keeping one. Since the twins are learning Spanish (so I am too – a little) …
Internalizing – It’s what ER nurses do … ?!?
At least it’s what THIS one is doing … While I don’t hold a 4 year degree specific to psychology, I’m pretty sure that’s what’s going on … I’m currently experiencing a full-fledged acne break-out – like some 13 year old kid – AND … I’ve been to the chiropractor twice this week to deal …
