Chores, Crafts, Cooking. :)

Today was an awesome day, and I needed an awesome day after an insane three days of work. Lets just say the job of a nurse is not always glamorous. Actually never glamorous but somedays are better than others. These last few days consisted of getting yelled at, giving enemas, and a death. They were also full of sweet ladies, thankful families, and awesome stories. I will try and just remember the good. :)

This morning Paul and I woke up at 9:30, laid in bed till 10 playing around on our phones, then I got up and made Pumpkin Pancakes. Delish. Then Paul had to get ready for a lunch thing at wrok and I stayed home, did two loads of laundry, vacuumed the house, ran the dishwasher, changed the bed sheets, and cleaned the kitchen and family room which had accumulated junk piles while I was working for three days. Then I went swimming, came home and folded some laundry then Paul came home!

This evening after a dinner of soft tacos we ran to fred meyer to get a gift for one of Paul's coworkers and then to home depot to buy a new facet for our bathroom since ours has a broken handle (which we were living with) but then it started leaking too. I also got a foam tube for $1.18 and it was enough to make two wreaths out of! :) I used some of the yar I had gotten at he dollar store and the felt flowers I had made earlier and made myself an awesome little wreath for a total of less than 2 dollars. :)

I made ritzies and pretzel kisses today. So yummy. I am going to package up the pretzel bites in cute little bags for stocking stuffers. :) The ritzies, well we are eating those, haha.

And then there is the kitties. Eric looks drunk in the right picture, and Eleanor always lays like this on the floor when I am cooking. :)

Love to all.

  1. Where did you get your foam tube? Love the wreath! I can't even imagine having your job - but I can so picture you - sweet, sweet Angela - serving your patients even through the difficulties! Your treats look so tasty and it sounds like you got a lot done while Paul was gone! So nice to get energized on your day off by accomplishing some things! Thanks for sharing all the pics!

  3. Thanks Ladies! I got the foam tube at Home Depot in the plumbing section. I have been wanting to make a wreath forever but there was no way I was paying $7 for a wreath form! :)
