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.

I Love My Coffee

I love coffee. I don't necessarily NEED to have it. I even stopped drinking it for a while and just had tea but I love the taste of it. I used to drink Starbucks all the time but now I make my coffee at home. When it started to get hot here I stopped drinking my coffee in the morning because hot coffee and hot weather was just too much for me. Then I realized I should just make iced coffee! I have a couple recipes I have been using lately and would love to write them. Some of them are healthy and some of them, not so much. Vanilla Creme: Half Coffee Half 1% milk (or coconut milk) Drops of Vanilla Creme SweetLeaf Stevia Drops  to taste Chocolate Raspberry: Half Coffee Half 1% milk (or coconut milk) Drops of Chocolate Raspberry SweetLeaf Stevia Drops  to taste Iced Mocha Coffee: Half Coffee Half 1% milk (or coconut milk) A couple squirts of Hershey's Sugar Free Chocolate Syrup You can basically make it anyway you want to. I would love to get the flavors of Hazelnut, Pumpkin S...

So Many Changes

During my last post I was still doing my externship at a veterinary clinic near me. Since then, I have been hired as a veterinary technician! I have been loving this job. It's been stressful but has been so rewarding.  My goals lately have been some smaller ones such as getting better at blood draws (I have hit 100% of my veins in the last 3 weeks!), triple checking invoices, and getting all my charts completed by the end of the day. When I feel that I have improved enough I will start training in surgery. That's my goal anyway. Then, once I start training in surgery and become a surgery tech I can start working towards my goal of becoming a critical care technician.  I have progressed in my career but I have also progressed in my personal life as well.  I have finally hit my goal weight since getting off my birth control and getting the Paragard. Now my next goal is to build more muscle, gain endurance, and become more flexible again. I have also started can...
