I apologize for being away (I missed you all, even if you didn’t notice I was gone, haha). These past few days have been insane.
I can’t even begin to try to condense it into a blog-worthy Cliff’s notes version. So…
(a) I was working a LOT – gotta get the cash flow to pay those billz, yo!
(b) A patient stroked out RIGHT before I was supposed to head out on my lunch break (the blogger meet up, no less) – ahhhhhh! I hate to say which part of that last sentence disappointed me more. SHOOT! I’m a good nurse, so even though it wasn’t my patient, I obviously had to take over that nurse’s other patients while they called a code and went through all the shenanigans that go down when a patient has a stroke. Not. Fun. Period.
(c) We are moving!!! After a loooooong time discussing all the pros/cons of this decision, Kyle and I are SO thrilled to make this upgrade. We are still staying in NYC, and we are still staying in our same Upper West Side neighborhood, but we are going to be upping the square footage BIG time. EXCITING! The closet space alone, y’all…
(d) We had our friends from CA staying with us. Party time?
(e) Kyle’s birthday. A lot of chocolate. Not a lot of exercise.
(f) My computer and the Geek Squad were having a sleep over (for a week), and I just got it back today.
Since I was pre-occupied with the above, the food stuff came to play second fiddle this past week. Here’s a few highlights.
Hope that holds you over for a bit. I’ve got a google reader with hundreds of posts to catch up on…alas, I head back to CA for my cousin’s wedding in a few days.
When the hell am I gonna have the time to MOVE by April 1st?
Yay for being back!!!
Sounds like you have been really busy!! I think you did a good cliff notes verison, btw ; )
Congrats on your move!!! woo hoo!!! : ) I hope moving isn’t TOO hectic, it’ll all be worth it, though!!! : )
