Always, Sometimes, Never

I am stealing this idea from my sister . Thought it looked kind of fun!! I just finshed my first Critical Care Exam....which I was terrified of. And I am actually walking away feeling REALLY confident about it! It's weird. So yay! Celebration. Ryan is charcoal grilling beer can chicken for me tonight! I am making a sweet-potato salad and spinach salad! I love doing the easy stuff ;) So here we go! I ALWAYS ... -Make lists . Lists are absolutely vital to my survival in everything. If you went through my purse, kitchen drawers, school-bag, anything - you will find many lists about everything! -Eat breakfast - and within the first hours that I'm awake. Skipping that meal is not an option for me! -Make breakfast, pour coffee how he likes it, and pack a lunch for Ryan EVERY day. Even on weekends when he gets up at 4:30 for guard. Doing those little things for him are really important to me. I Sometimes .... - Vacuum the house or scrub my kitchen floor when I'm feel

Graduation Recap!

This won't contain a lot of pictures, for I'm not the best with my own camera. But, Lisa  is posting some great photos! But I will say the past weekend was INCREDIBLE! So here is a little bulleted list of the amazingness. First off, I am quite  burnt out .

I can't remember the last time I had a "break". It has been go, go, go - and it probably won't "stop" for awhile! But all the prep and hard work was WELL worth it! Wednesday , Lisa got in. We went for an amazing 6.5 mile hike . Since (I think) all of you read her blog, you can see pictures on her recap! :D (Thanks, Lisa!) Lisa & I hiking Madera Canyon We then took her to our FAVORITE sushi restaraunt; Ra . It was a beautiful evening filled with tons of laughter, great conversation, and fantastic weather! As a side note - that night

Ten on Tuesday!

It's Tuesday AGAIN! I will be recapping soon the weekend of fantastic festivities of family! In the meantime, my brain is FRIED, I am beyond exhausted, I had a LONG day of clincals; and I feel like being mindless ;) So....Ten on Tuesday!! :) 1. If your name was a verb, what would “to Chelsea” mean? (Insert your own name though…) "To Abby": to fall, trip, or spill something; to react in an overly-exaggerated manner. In a sentence: "You really Abbyed this morning when you fell on your face!" *Time out story: I have to walk about a mile to my hospital for clinicals in the morning. I was sick and exhuasted this morning on my way in; and was crossing the street in a frenzy at 6 a.m., and tripped on a curb and feel flat on my face right near downtown Tucson. Yep. I definited "Abbied" ;) At that point, I wanted to walk back to my car, drive home, and crawl into bed! 2. What myth have you always wanted to prove or bust? That you cannot lick your el
