Not Well

This bronchitis isn't going away. Well, it may have, but the cough is still there and I am so tired of coughing. This is ridiculous. I never remember to call the Dr. though, otherwise I'm sure i'd have an appointment scheduled. I was supposed to follow up within 2 days, yeah, I suck at that.
I haven't made much of anything since the last post. I haven't felt like it. I went back to work on Monday and didn't want to be there at all. I just wanted to be in bed. I want to sleep till I wake up and this cough is GONE!
Well enough complaining. I think i'm going to veg tonight when Jude goes to bed. Watch some Grey's on my netflix and just relax till I fall asleep.
Oh speaking of Jude, I had him sign his name today. I told him the letters and he did his best. I couldn't post a picture of it because of a special reason, but I will try to remember to take a picture of it tomorrow and post it up here. My little boy is growing up too dang fast.
Anyway, I'm going to go now. Wait till I find my creative muse again and get to making things. I'll write more soon

Salad with a Twist

I don't want this blog to turn into a "what I had for dinner" blog, because I want to do more with my creativity than just cook, but because I made this awesomely delicious Salad this evening for dinner i just had to share

So basically, its just a salad. Lettuce. Tomato. Hard boiled egg. Cubed Sharp cheddar AND get this...................... BRATWURST!!! HAHA! who ever thought about putting Bratwursts in a salad?! ME! that's who! I didn't use a dressing or anything because the juices from the tomato, lettuce, and bratwurst made is moist in flavor enough that I didn't need a dressing! Go me!

Enjoy!

Toliet Paper Towers

Jude has this new obsession with playing with toliet paper... And by playing with it, I don't mean balling it up and throwing it down the toliet. I mean making castles and towers out of it. Thursday, when I asked him to put the toliet paper away in the cupboard for me, i noticed it was taking him an unusually long amount of time and he had gotten really quiet. This is what I walked into:

Now of course, I could not be mad at him because I love his creative abilities. It stayed like this for quite awhile and then I informed him we had to put it away. He was a very good helper putting it away. He's a great boy, I couldn't ask for anyone better and his imagination is AMAZING!

Enjoy!

Dinner Last Night

Last night for dinner I actually cooked!

I made a cucumber, olive, mozzarella, and tomato salad. Some creamy mushroom penne, and Parmesan bread crumb chicken. It tasted delicious underneath all my sickies, so I can only imagine how amazing it would have tasted if I hadn't of been sick. I was just thinking though that the mozzarella didn't really have the full flavor that i was looking for so next time to bring out the taste of the cheese, I may go ahead and use feta.
Anyway, it was really good and I wish that my stomach could have eaten more but it didn't. I don't feel like posting a recipe, but it's pretty self explanatory. If you want to know how I made a particular thing (like if you're just dying to know) email me at goin2merced24@hotmail.com and i'll be totally glad to give it to you. I'm just not feeling too well and my mind is boggled so blogging it isn't gonna happen tonight.

Enjoy!

I'm Baaaack!

So for awhile i've wanted to start being creative again. I was dabbling over at that tumblr place but i didn't like it. It didn't allow me to express my creative take on things as much as I would have liked it too. I am going to start blogging again.
Life
Creativity
Jude
Me
Marriage (or lack there of)
and Everything in Between.
I spend a lot of time on the computer doing the same ole things over and over and quite frankly, my talent deserves to be noticed. So hold tight and enjoy!
