Hi bloggies!! I’m BACK in the big apple now, after a SUPER fun weekend in Vermont. It’s so nice to get out of the craziness that is NYC every once in a while – and the ‘burbs of Vermont were just the place to relax and unwind. It’s so small town. So, back tracking a bit to Friday…Kyle’s boss generously let us use his cabin (which sleeps 13) so we decided to head up to Vermont for the weekend for a fun little skiing getaway with another couple. Hooray! SO FUN! But, very very cold…. Read more >

Today was a totally snack-y day. I didn’t even really do meals, I was just grazing all day long. That’s the bad part about about having days off when the weather is only 15 degrees outside. I broke the fast with a HUGE glass of chocolate soymilk followed by a CHOCOLATE loaded coffee. This stuff is THICK and sooooo good. I am normally a silk soymilk girl, but this was on sale so I decided to give it a shot. Man, was I in heaven. It took all self control to not chug the entire… Read more >

What an AWFUL day. Fortunately, I had a seriously awesome dinner to provide the light at the end of the tunnel through it all. Back to the beginning though… Like most days, I stopped at Starbeezies for a coffee. Unlike most days, I didn’t have chance to actually drink it until 10:30!!! Can you even believe it! I was SO swamped with work. It seemed like no matter how much I did to catch up, stuff just kept piling up. TOO MANY PATIENTS!!! Blah. Even though I kept reminding myself to stop. breathe. relax…it did… Read more >

White as far as the eye can see. I love that I work on the 10th floor, because the view is really pretty, especially on super snowy days! It was snowing all day, but I still managed to make it to the ‘bucks before work and on my lunch break. I was the only person on the unit today, so I had all the patients. Baller! No but for reals it was kinda crazy. One of my patients went into sinus tach and then desaturated to the 86% range even with 60% O2 face mask… Read more >

The weather cracked into the 40s today, time to celebrate! I was so happy when I woke up, it was sunny out and I had the day off to enjoy the nice weather outside. Here’s my morning cup of joe…along with some figs, carob covered raisins, and the crossword. Talk about starting the day off right. Since I woke up earlier than usual, I got hungry earlier than usual, so I made some french toast that I doused in Earth Balance. This whole wheat Alvarado Street bread is good, maybe even better than the California… Read more >
