- anything classic summer I can do/show/play with my kid. sprinklers, lemonade, playing outside naked (just her, not me), watering flowers, looking at bugs, watermelon, corn on the cob, stars, etc.
- iced tea (still stuck on Tazo iced black tea -- so good, try mixing it with peach nectar!)
- watching movies or Big Love after Beebs is asleep
- working hard to get better at putting in IV's at work. This is something that has always caused me much anxiety and I've avoided it which has made me not have the practice I should have had (eek. embarrassing). On my old unit I could go days and days without needing to start an IV and now I start at least a couple a day. We want it in on the first stick, obviously and we use 18g needles. Thankfully, pregnant women are juicy -- lots of blood flow but everyone's body is a little different so sometimes I get it the first try and sometimes I don't. My preceptor really likes to talk about it if I miss. heh. I'm trying to be more ballsy and offer to start other nurse's IV's (if they don't mind) to just get over my unnecessary anxiety. If you're interested, here's a large list of IV tips and tricks).
- daydreaming about our new house, working in our yard, settling in (wild strawberries and pear tree, lavender and hostas, oh my!)
- bubble gum
- popcorn
- creative salads
- taking my lunch to work
- reading about making my own laundry soap. I've been wanting to for a long time. I think I'll make some powder and shave some peppermint Dr. Bronner's bar soap in it as Soulemama did. Sounds lovely!!
- putting sugar in my facewash
- chamomile tea as toner! thanks, S!
- using vinegar for..like..everything
- greek yogurt, forever and ever amen

I tried using chamomile tea as toner, as you suggested, but now my printer won't work.
