yep yep yep

How nice to come home to this!

Candles - no fire - too hot!
I have had the windows open lately.
Got my first electricity bill ( for 3 weeks) $43!

Made a nice Chili - 
Pumpkin - having people come over this weekend.
Trying to wow them!

Got a purse - actually a messenger bag.
To hold all these things  ya gotta carry these days.
Cell phone, wallet, keys... 
Now that I am mobile, I need something!

Making a nice Oxtail Stew / Broth

 Ceramic Pans... my Teflon ones got all scratched up
That's ok - I didn't like them anyways!

The apartment is painted,
I am all rested up -
Ready to get back on track -
Work wise and food and working out!
Yay!

grrr

Sitting around, made many fires
These past 2 weeks... taking it easy -
A pseudo stay-cation

This little creek is right by my apartment -
Also there is a Fitness Center, and a Park nearby.
One of the trails is said to be 15 miles long!

Painting is a fun and easy project -
Just put on Pandora and go for it

 
A little problem solving....
A little Kilz

And Wall-La!
Results!

Mapped out the In-n-Outs nearby

Got a second job -
Back to Pediatrics ....  13 of my 23 years
of Nursing was in Peds....so.....

I'll take this as a sign!

Watching the rain and clouds -
[And resting my ankle - the ladder is not doing me any favors!]

A big oak tree right outside my window!
I love fixing the place up!

Grrr

reframing

Got to do a little creative stuff here

Painted the walls in my new apartment




The computer picked these as being compatible.
So far, so good.

About to hang these drapes -
Shown here in da catalogue 

Ate this steak - 3 weeks now no cheating

2 weeks living in this apartment 
Eating my own way

Like this baked cheese
Yum

And this toasty fire.
Put my broken ankle up and just watch the roll of the flames!

New job interview manana - 
Wish me luck!
