Chirping in the kitchen



Today after a busy day of work I was making a smoothie. It had yummy strawberries and green melon (what's it called?) and ice cream and milk. :) when I went to grab the milk, the refridgerator door pushed a bird out of the way! A real life bird! I called my friend Tiffani and she was able to come... but didn't know when so I tried to get it out myself. By the time I got the courage to try, my friends Joe and Richelle and their roommate Miles came over.




Crazy ass Joe cut the bird. I say it was by accident to feel better. Then buried it. Which was very civil.... Then when I asked Miles to move the nest away from the door, he only put it on the ground. So when I went to go to put the nest in the trash so the dog wouldn't eat it, baby birds fell out!!!




They were so helpless and died too!
Now I feast upon my delicious smoothie with the puppy chewing on his bone. Welp, off to wind down for the day.

Perspective

I had a rough afternoon becasue once again my boss made me feel dumb and belitttled. Anyways, a good day turned sour in 2 hours and then I come home to this:
It is all in perspective. Before I worked, something like this would make me mad. It would be a hasstle to clean. Now that I work, I see this, and it made it all ok. I was laughing and cleaning it up made me giggle even more; despite the fact I came home 12 hours after leaving the house with 30 minutes for lunch.

Bang!

Kyle and I had crappy weeks. He got little sleep and has frustrations at work. I had a bad week at work and family troubles so it was a no brainer when I say we missed each other. This weekend has been awesome! We slept in, we cuddled, watch tv, played "look for the Easter basket" (early) and shot our new gun!

I actually liked shooting. It was a good release for all the anger I have about my job, it was empowering, and we got to spend time together. :) I am comfortable having the gun in the house with some knowledge of how to use it if I ever have to. (I pray I don't).

I made cupcakes and a cake. There was a ton of batter. Funfetti cupcakes/cake. Yummy. I just don't need to eat them. I put it in for the allotted time and it wasn't long enough because when I poked the cake, it collapsed and uncooked batter oozed out. Once the cake was finally done, I cooled and put icing on a bunt cake. Haha. There was a doughnut looking cake golden brown due to the crater that appeared when I initially poked the cake. Still just as yummy... I hope.

We made fajitas at home for dinner. Good stuff! Bought a crock pot. This week I will try to look up yummy recipes for next weekend...

It was an overall great day.

Tomorrow is Easter. We will start the day with yummy Cinnabon-Cinnamon rolls Kyle requested. When I say requested, he put them in the cart at the store and when I am putting away groceries and see the roll of dough, he smiles with the big grin. You know the grin- the one where even his ears poke out a little more.

After breakfast, we will attend the house of worship with the Holler's. It should be interesting... We are going to do laundry and laugh and maybe walk the dog. Maybe we will try again with the haircut thing. It should be ok to learn on a bald head. That way if I mess up... shave it all off again.

Goodnight.
