Christmas Eve

By -
It's finally here, the day before the merriest holiday. My moms side of the family however chooses to celebrate today, because it is easier than trying to get five independent families together who also have to plan around their other family members. So I am pretty excited for tonight, I can finally give my mom her present that took me several months to make, and that literally has my blood, sweat and tears in it. I can also give Rok a gift I think he will like a lot, but I am little sad I couldn't get the handmade gift made in time. But his birthday is next month so I can hopefully finish it by then. Also I get to open one of Rok's gifts for me, so that is exciting. He seems certain I will like them, and that he nailed it this year.


We also have some plans for tomorrow as well, A brunch with Rok's mom and her boyfriend, lunch at my grandparents, and dinner with my mom and sister. So while we have a full day of stuff to do it is all pretty relaxed stuff and that is exciting. So I hope you enjoy your holidays and:


Stay Cool.

Cooking shows

I really like watching cooking shows. I'm not sure why, I don't plan on ever making the food they do, but there is something about watching skilled chefs make beautifully delicious looking food. Rok also enjoys these show so that works out really well for us. More recently we have started to watch more cooking channels on YouTube. We now watch Binging with Babish and Bon Appetit. I used to watch Hellthy JunkFood, but recently their content hasn't appealed to me as much as it used to. We also watch the Great British Bake Off on Netflix, but unfortunately Netflix doesn't offer many other cooking show options that I can find. I have been curious to look into Chef's table but we haven't gotten there yet. Today I weighed: 213 lbs Yesterday I ate: > A 22 oz Aloha Pineapple smoothie from Jamba Juice > ~1 1/2 cup of buttery noodles > A yogurt cup > Two peanut butter and honey sandwiches > A slice of white bread Yesterday I drank: 84 oz of water...

Tiny Cat Kidneys

By -
Our cat Monty has been getting over a kidney infection. As such, I had the privilege to learn how difficult it can be to make a cat swallow medication. We also had to learn to administer a subcutaneous fluid drip every few days to make sure he stays properly hydrated. Fortunately, he's been recovering well, drinking his water and eating his expensive, new medicated food. We took him into the vet today to make sure he's totally back to normal, but now we have to wait for a urine test to come back. At least we got his vaccinations and stuff renewed, so that's good. This morning, I weighed 195.8 Today I ate ~Three small chocolate covered muffin tops ~A pull apart twizzler ~Half a bowl of cheesy pasta from Noodles ~A cat mug of ice cream ~An Amy's pesto tortellini bowl ~Two slices of cheese pizza On an unrelated note, I've been cleaning up our kitchen and I'm hoping to keep it that way this time. I suspect a tidy kitchen will make cooking less of a cho...

We moved!

We're still pushing boxes around, but the worst is over, so we can get back to blogging irregularly and streaming sometimes! Although we are also planning on changing jobs soon, so maybe it's not over after all! We've officially submitted our final assignments for our machining course, so once they get graded, we should have our certifications and our instructor was helping us look for jobs to apply for and put in a good word for us with a place where he's sent students in the past with good results. So come July, we might be making parts for spinal implants, which sounds pretty rad. Much better than listening to people's phone calls all day. And we'd get a swing shift with four 10 hour days, which I think sounds ideal, so we get to sleep until we wake up and then get a weekend and then some! I'm trying not to get my hopes up too high, since we don't actually have the job yet. Especially because we won't actually get to start until July after a pla...
