Niki's Neverending Adventure

Hello friends! Sorry I haven’t written in a few days, I have been super busy with school! We started our Skills Lab this week which means I have to spend a lot more time at school. Skills lab was so fun this week! We learned how to intubate (put a breathing tube in)! Of course we used a dummy and not a real person, but it’s just so nice to actually start doing all the things we have been learning about! I was totally in my element and it makes me super pumped for clinicals to start in September! But there is a lot to get done between now and then!

Workouts this week have been kind of random! Monday I did a really good Circuit Training workout that had me super sore! I’m still sore today! Yesterday, I took Sadie on a long walk, and then walked on the treadmill for 4.5 miles while I practiced my presentation that I had to give today! I was finally able to get out for a run today! But, holy wind! The wind was so strong, gusts 20+ miles per hour! That made this run tough! Other than the wind, the day was beautiful and I think the high was around 80! I ran 3 miles by myself (@ a 9:20 pace) and then picked up Sadie and we run/walked 2 more miles. We did run for 2 minutes, walk for 1 minute and she seemed to do really well with that! I love running with my girl!! After we got finished with that, I walked 2.5 more miles on the treadmill while catching up on some DVR. I guess today was all about some cardio! Haha :) Between all the miles I put in today and the soreness that I still have from Monday, my body feels beat! But in a good way of course!!

I have been using my new French Press and LOVE IT!! It’s amazing at how much better coffee tastes when made by a French Press!!

 

It even has it’s own little “jacket” to keep the coffee warm!

Workin’ it’s magic

Mmm, mmm, good! Love the froth!!

If you don’t have a French Press, I think it would be a very wise investment! If you like coffee of course :)

Do you prefer French Press coffee?

I don’t really have much else to talk about, my life is seriously overwhelmed with school right now!! I get to start eating meat again on Sunday (Easter) so hopefully after that I will start actually cooking dinners and have more recipes and yummy eats for y’all! Right now I feel like all I do is throw random things together and call it a meal! Haha :)

Alright guys, gotta jet! Hope y’all are having wonderful weeks! We are halfway to the weekend! Yay!!
