Road trip!!

Well, due to a work trip, that is. A group of us went down to a hospital near San Antonio to see how they made THEIR EHR work right since we have the same system and have been having... issues. It's beyond infuriating when I tell someone "hey, your system isn't working right" and then they offer about 3 different solutions that boil down to "you're doing it wrong" until FINALLY they get someone else who looks at it and goes "yeah, the system wasn't working right, we did x and now it should work" and it... does! Yep, I'm gonna be SUPER SALTY about the VTE nightmare for... at least all of 2026, maybe for the rest of the decade... I could plan a restart in 2030. A 4 year salty phase should help keep me aging well, right? Salt is a preserver 😆 Lots wife got NOTHING on me! 🤣 

Since it was near San Antonio, I took the opportunity for a bestie dinner! 
We went to the yard at 1829. 
Made friends with the bartenders, who gave us a shot of purple geko (it was marg-ish).
Food was great! Then checked into the hotel to see my room.
SUPER cute. And then we had drinks at the bar after making friends with the resident cats.
So cute.

Obligatory selfie #2. My work crew started filtering in as well, so bestie got to meet some of the work people she hears about! The trip was good, but I was happy to come home to my own kitty cat. 
He did NOT enjoy this 😆

The biblical reference is partially due to my Lent book coming in. I got it from ascension press. It's called "crux: a lenten journey of surrender." From what I can tell, it's guided journaling and since I'm doing great making time for working out, I think I should also make time for checking in (spiritually). Too often that gets pushed aside for other pursuits. And yes, confession and weekly mass are gonna be part of it. Might even get a head start.... been a bit of a heathen lately.

Hubbs and I decided that we needed to go back to the Warhammer store in grapevine so he could get a book he saw last week. I figured if we were gonna do THAT we could also enjoy 50% off the whole menu at a Mexican place on the lake. Then HE figured if we're gonna do THAT we should make it an over night stay. Which is exactly what we did! 😁
Big daddys cantina on the lake
Drinks in an igloo!! We got to keep the clay cups!!
Messina hof for wine and Whipped brie.
Harvest hall for fun and a night cap.
wandering downtown on day 2
3d sidewalk art
Visitors center. We debated staying longer, but decided we were ready for home. So we swung by papa murphys for pizza, then came home and baked it 😁
yummy 
Home with the kitty cat.

After a crazy week, it was nice to relax at home with the hubby and the kitty. Today being Sunday, I'm going to make slow cooker Buffalo chicken chili which I'm quite intrigued about. I hope it's good. Then next week is going to be leftover week so we can clean out some of the freezer for SPACE. A and I are going to meet up for lunch, so that will be nice, and hubbs must go to work. Bleh. I hope all of you are staying warm enjoying some good things, and being kind to yourselves. Much love! MUAH! 💋❤️
Cozy cat.
