Pay-day Par-ty!

First payday and I kinda went crazy!

And I have a new phone which I posted this from. Love it!! And check out my leather pants!

Healthy Orange Julius

I made a healthy smoothie that I had pinned to my food/recipe board! It sounded yummy and refreshing and easy to make.

All it is- 1 can of concentrated OJ

1 cup milk

1/4-1/2 cup sugar

1 tsp vanilla

1 ripe banana

1-2 cups of ice depending on how thick you want it.

Then blend away!

The drink was pretty good. I think I put too much OJ in it, but it was refreshing. It's nothing exceptional, but it's another option for something yummy.

I did modify it a little. I added spinach. Everytime I make a fruit smoothie I add some spinach. It's packed with nutritious wonderfulness and you can hardly taste it. It turns your drink funny colors but it's so good for you. Like Pop-Eye says, "I'm strong to the finich, cause I eats me spinach!"

New Job!!!

I got a job at Arizona Spine and Joint Hospital! It's not a very big hospital, but it's a great place for a brand new nurse to learn. I started yesterday with a class they offer to their patients about total joint replacement. I start the nursing part tonight. I'll be doing night shift at the beginning, but they will still train me for day shift. I want to do mostly nights, but I'll do whatever is available. I feel like such a career woman now! I'm working out in the real world! :) I'm really excited about this job and I can't wait to start being a nurse!!

The problem with getting a job is that now I have money coming. I prematurely went shopping. Sunglasses are my 2nd favorite accessory after shoes. I bought 2 pairs of sunglasses and 2 cases. I couldn't help myself.

More exciting news!!! I became an aunt for the 12th time yesterday! My sister Jessica had her 5th child! Congrats you guys! Her name is Anthea and she is so cute!!!

Celebration Card

This week I chose a pin from my craft board. I didn't want to do anything too fancy cause I was feeling a bit lazy. I had pinned this card and it looked pretty simple. I just tried to copy the picture with what I had. I found some scrapbook paper that I thought was cute and went to work, while watching Harry Potter & the Sorcerer's Stone! It's one of my favorite of the HP movies. 

So here is the final project compared to the original one. I must say, I did pretty good.  And Pinterest is a lot more fun and meaningful when you actually use what you pin! Until next week and next pin...maybe i'll cook something...
