Today was my first day off in a week and I took full advantage of it. I slept in until noon and it was wonderful. I was all snuggly in my warm fuzzy blankets, dreaming of zombies and rebuilding society.
I'm reading the graphic novels, The Walking Dead.
It affects me.
When I finally got out of bed (after much prodding from MB), I chilled for a bit. I caught up on my dvr shows from the week. Then, I showered and cleaned the house and started laundry.
I'm also off tomorrow and MB will be gone, working a 24 hour shift. This means I get to sleep in as long as I want and be as lazy as I want and he can't give me any crap.
Although, I plan to go walking with the pup if it's nice out. We need some fresh air. Especially her. She stinks.
Note to self: Call the groomer!

Eats for Friday 2/25/11
I made one of my favorite soups today. Spinach Rice Soup. It's super easy to make and it is delicious.
This is all you need...
One cup of risotto rice, 1 small chopped onion, 2 cloves minced garlic, crushed red pepper, 5 cups chicken broth and lots of this...
...fresh spinach.
Yummy.
For dinner, MB and I shared some chorizo mushroom risotto. It was also yummy. We both had a sweet tooth and ended up getting some ice cream. I know. Fat Club fail.

Eats for Thursday 2/24/11
It was such a busy day in the crisis unit today that I didn't get a chance to eat lunch. I ended up snacking on stuff in between patients. By the time I left, I was starving. MB and I went out to eat.
I could've made different choices for dinner. However, I managed to stay in my points range and my meal was delicious.
Sometimes I have days like that at work. You barely get time to breathe, let alone time to sit and eat the yummy cup of spinach soup you made the night before. That's life in the crisis unit.
