*Official/obligatory* New years post

Cause everybody's doing it! (Please ignord any typos, been up a while) New year started out with a bang kind of rough. I am working my overnight ICU tech position and about ready for some bed. I worked the equine side which was fun, except for the foal you can't touch and the horse you have to fill ice boots on every other hour that wants to kill you. My fellow worker on the food animal side called me over to look at one of the patients and it was in respiratory distress and salivating copious amounts and had gone down hill from the 11pm rounds at midnight. Had to call the resident and clinician in and they debated trying  to save or euthanize. Decided to save and not even 30 seconds after some injections the animal passed away. Rough, exciting,  Awful way to start the new year :/
The rest of the night was slow, which was kind of good because I got an awful migrane. Just waiting for the students to hopefully get here soon so we can leave!
Christmas was good. Had a relaxing morning with the hubby and opened presents. Went to my parents for lunch and more presents and had a great time. Last Thursday went to the in laws for Christmas. It is always crazy there with all the nieces and nephews running around. 
I've been making a lot of recipes from Pinterest lately, mostly good, one ok. Made a chicken dish with spinach, tomato sauce, and noodles and baked it and some drip beef sandwiches in the crock pot which were both awesome. I tried the ice cream made out of bananas (and got to use by new blender thingy) but it didn't turn out that tasty (pinterest and your lies!) Oh and I got an immersion blender so I started making green smoothies out of oats, almonds, flax seed, fruit of your choice, and kale, stick it in the freezer portioned out, so in the morning just have to add some milk and blend. They are pretty good and keep me full so thats all I can ask for. 
Time to pack things up. Hope you had a good new years.
