Super blood moon

So, these are horrible pictures taken by my phone, but I thought I could post it for anyone who ventures onto my blog. It was quite neautiful, and very calming.

Rant.

I have a problem with hospitals now. I am taking care of my friend right now, while her family is away,  and last night I had to take her to the emergency room. First off,  was it a crazy drive, because they blocked off the main road to the hospital and sent me on a stupid detour, and the entire time she can't flipping breathe in the seat next to me. Second, it was just us, so I had to get the valet guy to park the car. If he wasn't the slowest human being in getting out ticket, he is very close to the top. Meanwhile, she can't walk, so I have to push her in a wheel chair, and he won't let me push her in to get seen and come back. Third, she was prepared, because she goes to the hospital at least twice a year, so she had a list of her medical history and medications. Smart thing to do, because they asked her to repeat the same thing three times in a row, and each time she was turning bluer. I found the papers in my purse and shoved them at them to get them to stop trying to kill her. Fourth, they get her into an emergency room bed, and immediately do her vitals, right? Her furst nurse was kind, but each time he tried to stick her with a needle he dug it in, and making her cry from the pain. So, you can imagine how angry I was getting while I was trying to calm her down. Fifth, there was a shift change, and her mew nurse wouldn't read anything that happened in the computer or look at her hustory, and proceed to tell her that he problem was from dehydration and that she should take better care of herself. No, this is a reoccurring problem genius, and you would see that if you looked at her history for one dang second! She also took her vital again, and proceed to try and cut off my friends circulation with the blood pressure cuff before actually turning it on. She was screaming, because she felt like it was going to break her arm, and the nurse didn't care. Lastly, the doctor finally came in and just prescribed her a pain killer to fix her Asta problems (uh, no), and a medicine she was already put on by a doctor, that wasn't working (genius). He then proceeded to tell her she might have an illness that is causing, right? This illness usually puts asthmatics in a coma, and he was like, "you'll get passed it on your own." Then, he sent her home without stabilizing her. Are you serious? The treatments you gave her when there didn't work, and now her breathing is declining again, but you're just like, "good enough, send her home." What a crock of mess! If she ends up in a coma again, I swear! Doctors need to care less about moving people through and out of the emergency room, and more about trying to help their patients. She is getting worse, and she probably will have to go back tonight. This is such bull, and I honestly hope he is there, because then he will see how he messed up. Rant over.

Product Testing: The FlavorChef Electric Skillet

So, recently I have decided to give a try to a mutually owned product of a friend of mine. I may have also forgotten to take out something for dinner, but that is besides the point. It isn't light weight by any standpoint, but it isn't hard to carry. You have to be careful with the back hinges, because you can either leave it standing like the picture, or you can open it up to use both plates for cooking multiples. After a quick clean, as I do with any product that I haven't used before, I began my trial. I opened it up to use both heating plates, and began to cook my frozen chicken on the upper portion. On the main plate I places my peppers, onions, and garlic to soften. I was attempting a bit of a strange dish, chicken fajita burritos. It sounds almost like I could get stoned for the concoction. I finished cooking and let my skillet cool down while I began to create my burritos. Once the skillet was cool and cleaned, I then seared top and bottom of each burrito to keep them closed. I couldn't be happier with the result! Everything was cooked perfect, and the FlavorChef was amazingly easy to clean. I give this product, so far, a ten out of ten in product value.  

Welcome to my menagerie!

Isn't it amazing how hard it can truly be to try and explain how you act and feel to complete strangers? 

The easiest way, for me, to accomplish this task is to act as if the reader is an old, dear friend.

There are several things that one can learn about me, but I will narrow it down to six basics. 



  1. I love to read and to write. I do so at any moment that I can, hence a blog to do so. 
  2.  I love to be surrounded by my friends and family. I don't feel complete unless my family and friends are around me. 
  3. I love going to new places, meeting new people, and trying new things. If I am given an opportunity, I will take it happily.  
  4. I am obsessed with any quiz or test, and It doesn't matter if it is online, in a book, or in a magazine.  
  5. I live for the Autumn. I don't go crazy when it happens, but it is the brightest time of year to me. The weather is perfect, the world is so colorful, and everyone around me is filled with such happiness. 
  6. I try very hard to make people around me happy. It doesn't matter if I know you or not. If I am given the opportunity, and have the means, I will help anyone that comes across my path. I don't see the point of a life, and a planet, that can't hold some amount of kindness.
I also seem to love to put everything within the color spectrum.
