Restful

[midnightsjane]

So what do I find restful after a 12 hour shift in CCU? Do I come home and collapse on the couch with a cup of tea? Well, sometimes. Tonight, though, I was more ambitious; I cooked. Went to the grocery store on my way home and bought the fixings for lasagna, and a cauliflower for soup. I finally sat down just now, dishes done(2 batches), and a lovely lasagna cooling on the counter, as well as jars filled with mellow cauliflower-cheese soup. Feeling good about it too.

I was inspired to cook because I didn't have anything to bring for my dinner today. I figured I'd just get something in the hospital cafeteria, but when I went there it was as bare as Mother Hubbard's cupboard. Not a thing resembling food; pitiful, really. I made do with crackers and cheese. Not tomorrow! I will have lasagna.

Then I can rush home, collapse on the couch and watch two whole hours of Once Upon a Time. Yay!
