Ten on Tuesday

Happy Tuesday, everyone! So wanna know how my Tuesday "started out" (I guess...however, after this morning event, I went to bed and slept for 4 hours and then restarted my day now!)

So there I was driving home from work this morning....I had my windows down to get some fresh air, was admiring the fog over the mountains and the beautiful morning.

....and the NEXT thing I know....

I look up and my car is veering off the road into a cactus!

WAKE UP!!!!!! I swerved back onto the road quite quickly and snapped to it! I apparently had a "narcolepsy-like" moment there, where I just completely shut out and started veering off the road. Luckily, it was on a back road close to my house. --Not a major street where I most likely would've ended up in an accident!

Scarrrrry! I need to switch to day shift like...yesterday ;)

Ten on Tuesday:
1. What condiments are always, always in your fridge?

Mustard. Mustard is mandatory for it put it on nearly everything....
Ketchup is also important.
Balsalmic vinegar...if that's a condiment? I love it on salads, vegetables, and even my sandwiches/wraps

2. How do you like your steak cooked? Your burgers?
In a restaraunt I would order my steak medium rare. At home - when I trust the cut of meat and freshness...I like it seared and almost rare. I know...some of you are grossed out.

I like my done - b/c I usually eat turkey burgers. If it's beef...medium.

3. What’s your favorite use for fresh tomatoes?
Plain! Or sliced, and meaty, on top of a salad! Mmm

4. What’s your go-to dinner when you haven’t planned anything in advance and you don’t feel like going out?

Chicken or steak sliced up and grilled and placed on a bed of lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, etc - delicoius salad!

5. What’s your favorite snack food lately?
Strawberries. I would say I've been eating a lot of apples lately....but I always eat a lot of apples ;)

6. What’s your favorite weekend breakfast to make at home?
I don't do "weekend breakfasts" I don't like wasting calories on breakfast food. (I'm not crazy about the taste...) So I just like oatmeal.

But I do make my husband breakfast burritos on the weekend.

7. What’s your favorite thing to grill? How do you do it?
Shrimp. - Brush some olive oil, lime, cayenne, garlic, S & P - place on skewers...yum.

8. What’s your favorite wine for under $10? If you’re not a wine person, what brand of beer is your favorite?
Paseo. It's a new one I've started trying. It has a bicycle on the front. It's got a good bold flavor for cheap wine!

9. Give us your most delicious cocktail recipe.
-1 1/2 oz white rum
-1/2 lime squeezed
-crushed mint leaves
-soda

Delicious mojito!

10. How do you like your eggs?
Not at all.

Okay, if I'm going to eat an egg....it has to be hard boiled. Random, I know. It's odd, too, because deviled eggs make me gag.

Yikes! Glad you're ok!!

I'm a medium well steak kind of girl. I feel like I often get funny looks at restaurants when I order it that well cooked, but I can't help it!

I, too, am glad you are almost done with nights! That was too scary! I'm going to have to try that wine you mentioned! Two more nights to go - whahoo!

How scary! Glad you were safe. I could only imagine how scratched your car would have been!
Working days will it be 7-7? That will be much nicer!

One Confused Lady

Yesterday morning was packed with a session of cross training.....rushed home to shower and get professional-looking....headed across town for an interview.....kicked butt at my interview...."bopped" over to our house to see the progress of the build......headed to the "design center" to sign more paperwork.... (Side note: I cannot get over just how much paperwork is involved in building a house. Holy Hannah. And we haven't even closed !!! Iy-yi-yi....Those lovely people in history who got law-suit-happy.....God bless 'em.) Yesterday was a good day! So here's a little humor for your Thursday. A little thought. A little depth.....( A little cynical rant ) Afterwards, I decided to head to one of my favorite places to peruse.... Target. But my experience at Target was far from fun, relaxing, or pleasant. Just confusing. Loud. Crazy. Despite many screaming children-temper tantrums.... Which is common and un-escapable. Although screaming chi...

Winter Storm hits the desert?!

Happy New Years Eve to all. I hope everyone is able to celebrate with family, friends, or loved ones tonight! And -- I hope everyone has a safe evening!! Be careful out there! We are finally experiencing some "weather" here in Tucson. I use "quotation marks"...because this "weather" the Tucsonan's are FLIPPING OUT over is just a "chilly October Day" in North Dakota (where I came from) Yesterday morning...I was getting off work. I could hear the wind blowing, and the rain falling throughout the night. There were moments where...I kind of want to crawl into one of the hospital beds and take a snooze. When 7:30 am rolled around, I was very anxious to go home after 3 nights on. I was ready to BOLT out the door.... ...when I was stopped by an oncoming shift coworker, who stated, "Abby, maybe you should stick around until the weather clears up. It's pretty bad out there...." FEeling concerned, I asked, "Really? Are th...

St. Anthony, Where are you??!!??

So. Let's talk about my day so far. And why I suck at being organized. Do any of you know these people who always have it together? They never lose ANYTHING. They have a spare set of every important document, item possible. Every document has a file, every item has a place, every place has a label. They are always collected, have every duck is in the row. They live in perfection. This description is my husband: Ryan. My second question: Do you know anyone who's life is an absolute train wreck? They are always running in circles. They cannot be responsible for an important item if their life depended on it, because the strangest things happen to them. They never seem to be at the right place, or never seem to be on time. They cell phone often ends up in the refrigerator. There is always a giant debacle occurring. This description is me: Abby. Well this morning two people of this nature got to mingle a little. Well, they happen to be husband and wife--so they have to mingle withi...
