Setting Up the Small Tree and Making Vegan Breakfast Sandwich

By Rebecca Duerrwaechter

I started off last week working on school. I had my little study buddy to keep me company. I took my exam and then started on the nervous system! I'm slowly but surely working on getting through school. I was talking with Jake and he really thinks I could eventually become a Veterinarian and start my own practice. I have to become a Veterinary Assistant and then a Veterinary Technician first though.



Afterwards I decided to set up our small tree in the bedroom. I LOVE Christmas and always decorate earlier than most people in the U.S. 


Tuesday I was back to school work again and guess who was "helping"? Yep! Lando was right beside me. I love it when he wants cuddles. He's usually such a hyper kitty so when he wants cuddles I make sure to stop what I'm doing and give him love.


I captured the most beautiful sunset last week. The picture doesn't do it justice.


Lando loves the tree too!


Thursday, Lando spent forever trying to get a nail that had been previously painted over in the wall. I never noticed it until he tried getting at it. 


Yep, more cuddles. His new prescription food seems to be making him calmer and seems to be helping his urinary tract disease because he's back to his normal urinary output! YAY!



Friday morning I decided I was going to make a scrambled tofu breakfast sandwich. I take 1/3 of a block of  extra firm organic tofu and dry it with a towel.


I then heat up some oil in a pan then turn it to medium/low. I add the tofu, chop it with a spatula, and add a little bit of turmeric.


Then I added some garlic and onion powder, stir, and heat. I did this three times. After the third time I add some garlic and herb Mrs. Dash seasoning.


Then I put the scrambled tofu on the bread and add some peppered tofurkey and daiya cheddar cheese.

I put it in the panini press until the cheese was melted.


That afternoon I opened a package from my Mom and I got a new PJ set! 


Later that night it was a bit chilly so Lando and I kept warm by the fireplace. 


Saturday and Sunday Jake surprised me with the new season of Game of Thrones and we binged on that all weekend. Of course, when binge watching a whole season junk food is involved. We did have some fruit and vegetables but it was mostly food that isn't so great for you. So this coming week I'll be focused on healthy foods and lots of water.

My First Day at GNC

By Rebecca Duerrwaechter
Well today was my first day at GNC. When I asked for my days off she seemed understanding because I brought it up on the first day. However, my probation period is ninety days and I'm not allowed to use the cash register and I'm taking tests and training the whole time. So by the time I'm planning to leave and start working in a Fitness Facility I would still be on probation. I feel bad for only staying with them such a short time and them investing training into me. I'm wondering how long this will last. I plan to stick it out for a while and see how it goes. I'm not worrying about it because I know God has great plans for me and I just have to trust Him. I have applied for ten fitness facility positions on post this week and this weekend I will be applying to fitness facilities in the city that I am in. Hopefully something comes through and I can start putting my schooling and passion to use!

I Love My Coffee

By Rebecca Duerrwaechter
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...

ACE Fitness

By Rebecca Duerrwaechter
In one of my earlier posts I said that I am going to school to become a Certified Personal Trainer. I am taking online classes through the American Council on Exercise (ACE).  I am loving it so far! I bought the premium package and it included all the study materials plus a CEC math class, an online syllabus, and even videos/lectures that I can view online. It also came with a re-take exam voucher just in case I don't pass the first time. I am on lesson 10 now. I am going over Chapter 7 in the ACE Personal Trainer Manual and have already completed the Exercise Science portion. I am doing about one lesson a week. I take my quiz for the lesson on Friday and then on the weekends I review all of the Exercise Science book and Personal Trainer Manual. You can do it at your own pace but if I don't structure the lessons for myself I will probably fall behind. The schedule I have set up works pretty well for me but it took me longer than a week to go through a lesson when I was doing E...
