First Day After the Flu and Post-Election Day

Yesterday was the first day where I haven't felt like I got hit by a bus. Yay! I actually felt pretty good. My muscles were a little sore and I was a bit tired but overall I felt pretty good. I woke up after a NyQuil induced sleep and opened the windows, turned off the outside lights, and fed Lando his breakfast. Then I got ready for the day and I voted!

After voting I came back home, watched a youtube video while I ate some breakfast and drank some water mixed with Mio and some On Guard EO Blend.

Afterwards, I started putting all of my notes into flashcards on my Cram account. I finished all of my notes and then got to some house work! Then, I made some supper for Jake. I made fajitas because its super quick and easy!

Today I woke up and saw the results from the election. (Don't worry I'm not going to make this into a political post.) You could say I didn't wake up extremely happy. So to cheer myself up I put on some Christmas music and got ready for the day. I got my new lipstick in the mail yesterday for the winter season and used it for the first time this morning. I feel so festive with it on. Then I went to the store and strolled around looking at all the Christmas decorations. I even picked up a few ornaments.

After looking at everything Christmas-y I started my grocery shopping. I didn't have a huge list of things to pick up. Just some stuff that we ran out of:

*bread
*tofurkey meat
*vanilla almond milk
*chocolate almond milk
*tomatoes
*soup
*cough drops
*cereal
*tortilla chips


Once we use up our groceries and make the meals on our meal plan I'm going to do a green smoothie cleanse. I'll be making grocery lists and meal plans. I'm excited to post it on here.

Externship Update

It has been a little over a month since I started my externship! I have learned so much in the last 5 weeks and I'm excited to learn so much more. I really hope I get hired at my externship site. They have been hinting at hiring me and a few things have been said but nothing official has been said yet. If I don't get hired there I'm still thankful for the opportunity and am sure I'll get hired somewhere in the area. Since the externship started I have progressed more than I thought I would. Things I didn't think I'd be doing right now but am: *sending out samples for results *doing some callbacks to see how patients are doing *taking a client and patient to a room and then getting a history and TPR on my own *drawing blood *monitoring in patients and patients coming out of surgery I still have more ways to go but I am really proud of all my accomplishments so far. I will be publishing an official post once I'm done with my results but I just wanted

Warrior Challenge Obstacle Course and Mud Run

Today my husband and I completed the Warrior Challenge Obstacle Course and Mud Run! We got there at 07:30 bright and early. Before we went I ate a little bit of fruit and packed some things we might need (lots of towels, baby wipes, eye drops, snacks for afterwards, water, and electrolytes). I really enjoyed myself and it was empowering to accomplish it! Jake and I did it together all the way through. I'm so thankful that I have such an amazing husband that is so patient with me and helped me all the way through the event. The event was just short of 6 miles. It had over ten obstacles and included mud pits and a run through the woods that was very muddy! At the end we got some free water, Gatorade, fruit, snacks, and beer! I was very surprised but my Fitbit Surge held up pretty well! The only thing is when we got sprayed with water at the end, the force of the water must have hit one of the buttons and it turned off my Fitbit. That was as we were crossing the finis

Arizona 2.0

Since I've last posted there have been a few major changes and events that have happened. I have vacationed in the Bahamas, we have moved to Arizona, have bought a house, and have donated my hair. I've been meaning to update this blog for a while but now here I am watching Rome, drinking some cranberry juice, and typing on my laptop. Jake got a position in Southern Arizona as a contractor so we moved here and decided to buy a house. We looked at houses online for about a month before we found this one. It had everything we wanted in a house which was difficult to find. We did a virtual tour before deciding to put down an offer. It was accepted! Then we flew out to Arizona to walk through the home twice before going back to Tennessee and packing up all our stuff. After three days and both mine and Jake's cars breaking down in Texas we finally made it to Arizona. We lived out of a hotel for about a month. Because we were staying there so long, we received a special ra
