WIS, WWA | summer break!

Hello friends!

My semester is officially over and….I got a 47/50 on my final exam yesterday.

Sooooo, I finished the semester with my 4.0 still intact.

I know this does not matter in the long run, but still, there is a part inside of me that is very pleased that I managed to get A’s for at least half of nursing school.

 

Maybe it’s a little prideful, maybe I need to be knocked down a peg or two at some point, but regardless, I feel happy right now. 🙂

Happy Kristen.

Prepare for a less school-centric blog for the next couple of months!

What I Spent

I spent:

  • $10 on pizza
  • $20 on other takeout
  • $25 at Safeway

So, $55.

What We Ate

Saturday

A kale, tomato sauce, and cheese tortellini combo.

I picked up some pizza from Dominos.

A random pasta dish!

Plus cheese, tortellini, and browned pepperoni.

Tuesday

I made broccoli cheese noodle soup and we just had some toast on the side.

Wednesday

Zoe ate the last of the tortellini and I ate leftover broccoli soup.

Thursday

I finished my last exam yesterday so I decided it was a good night to not cook. 🙂

I got a bowl of shrimp ramen for myself with three soy-marinated eggs (ohhh yessss), and Zoe got a sub from Firehouse.

Friday

Zoe’s gonna be at work, but I do have half of my ramen leftover so, I could just heat that up for dinner.

Geez, until I wrote down all my meals, I did not realize how pasta-centric of a week it was!  I accidentally forgot I am the sandwich queen for a minute. 😉

What did you have for dinner this week?

Maybe someone already noticed but you got out of Dominos for only $10? Did you have a discount?

Late to the party, not sure you’ll even see this, but…

“Maybe it’s a little prideful, maybe I need to be knocked down a peg or two at some point,”

This sounds like someone else’s voice coming out of your mouth, and I have a guess as to whose it might be. Please, nobody working as hard as you do needs to be “knocked down a peg or two.” Never, never apologize for justifiable pride taken in an accomplishment resulting from hard work. Never.

Oh, never worry about that; I always see comments as they come through on my blog's dashboard.

And thank you for your kind words.
