They can't food Oh, I gotta keep my phone like this And then I go over and make Some coffee while they're outside It's gonna be hard for me to like answer any of your causes comments or questions I'll turn my best but right now. I don't know my contacts or glasses on so I can't see anything anyway There's my coffee. How do I flip this? There we go. We will Go get the dogs so they can eat their food Yeah, then we'll go get ready for wheels Why am I so weak? Not even 6 o'clock in the morning And Actually, I fell asleep last night at like Not even nine o'clock so I got a full eight hours of sleep Which is rare for me especially before work shifts Why didn't you get your breakfast? Eat it. Here you go. Yeah cats and dogs. It's like a farm over here Pretty much a zoo So funny story is I bought these little creamer cups From Walmart and I'm a total recharge because I thought it was like four bucks for this whole thing And I thought it was four bucks for 48 little k-pups Of coffee hazelnut coffee, but it turns out that it's actually just Creamers so now I'm like using all these like individually pack creamers and don't judge. I like a lot of creamer I usually do three of them and then I'll add like just a tiny bit of milk Just like to be able to drink coffee in the morning Usually I save it if I'm like really tired, but It's Sunday. I work the next four days So I'm bound to be pretty tired. So Let's go Get ready I still have my retainers in and everything. This is like ashley and the raw so Enjoy or don't enjoy I don't Everyone okay. This is guys here. I have to find a good spot for you all I really think about that But don't know this is gross, but I'm gonna Take my routines out And I ice rinsed them And then I brushed them when I brush my teeth But I said Over there and let me get my contacts in so I can actually see you guys in all Like see you guys like see your comments. I mean Uh So a little story time here. That's one contact. You can tell I've worn contacts or For a long time Is boom So on Thursday, so I work four days and then I'm going On vacation to visit my brother who's in the navy in south carolina and I'm going to also be visiting nurse pass When we're there and we're gonna all go to myrtle beach and it'll be fun and Thank you my hair looks great fun I uh, it's kind of ratty right now. I went to bed with it wet So it's just yeah, but I'm gonna clean my ears I know this is like not in most people's morning routine videos, but I cannot not clean my ears at least At least twice a day usually because I just feel like there's I can like feel stuff in there. I know it sounds weird, but it's like It's a fishy Okay, so then the first thing that I do is I wash my face And if you've been following me on instagram, especially my personal instagram, you'll see that I like Have been obsessed with the groganin fields skin line so Um, it's helped with my acne like A lot and just my skin looks so much better And I'm wearing way way way less makeup and I just feel really like good at my skin. So I will link this stuff down below if you guys are interested But I'm like literally obsessed. I have so much of it now because I became a consultant because I was like obsessed and that was the best way to get the most bang for my buck, but But first I just uh I'm trying to find a better spot to set you guys up that That's not a good angle. This angle is not working for me Okay, we'll just set me there for now. Um Can I just get my face a little wet Wash wash my eyes That sounds weird. You know, you wake up and you've got all that stuff just on your eyes and eyelashes So I just get my face a little wet and then this is step one of my face treatment and it's a um Just a face wash and it's actually specifically for Acne it's a sulfur wash and apparently it's better than like other types of washes my gosh So I just wash my face just for like 30 seconds or so and then So I uh Let me show you something That's like pretty Pretty gross So the next thing that I do is it seems like that I'm a morning person. I actually am a morning person I like to go to bed early like to go to bed Um at a reasonable hour and Get up at a reasonable hour get my day going Um, so this next step is toner. I just got these pads yesterday these cotton round and I'm like obsessed And I'm obsessed with toner. I used to never use toner before using these skin products and uh I was missing out. It's crazy because like if you look at this I don't know if we're gonna see on here If you didn't know it's really hard to see out there. You can kind of see all that. Um What's it called Brown gray stuff on there. So I watched like yesterday night. I washed my face And everything and like it'll still Pull like dead skin and stuff off your face, which is crazy Which is the point Yeah, it's like I don't know if you can see That shadowing on there, but it's like I've washed my face morning and night and you can still get stuff off with these pads in the toner I shower the night before so all the people that are going to be like you don't shower before work I used to I don't know sometimes I still will but you I shower like right when I get home from work or like If I'm not working the day before like the night before I shower and uh I don't know if this just works for me. So I don't really have any excuses or anything I have good hygiene. So don't judge me I just Wash my face. Oh this This thing on my face is called hydration shana. It's probably one of my favorite products that I've been using Because it feels so good when you put it on and you notice like an instant kind of like dewy look like if you want to Get any of these products the hydration serum is the one that I recommend This next thing is I'm almost done. I know it sounds like a lot of steps, but really doesn't keep me that long I'm just talking. Um, and I used way less makeup and spend way less time on my makeup. This is an acne treatment And this stuff rocks like even when I do get like a little blemish here and there especially around that time of the month Like it's just controlled a lot better and it goes away in like a day Especially with this stuff or doesn't like get as big as you would think It's kind of amazing And Better to shower after work. Yeah, I could not not shower after work. So I was showering twice a day And I was like this is a lot of work And yeah This is the last step this is just a sunscreen And it's an oil control This stuff's amazing. It has like a matte finish. So it's good Because it doesn't make your face break out and it has an spf in it, which is important So she and Arizona or anywhere really And preventing Your aging and just protecting your skin and I've had a lot of family members to see you get diagnosed with skin cancer So it's kind of a scary thing And but it has like a matte finish. So it's good just like a primer for your face Because it's got I want to say sticky That's not the right word because like no one wants their products to be called sticky But you know how primers need to have kind of have that feeling of like It's gonna stick your makeup's gonna stick on your face Well That product helps and then I just put a little eye cream under my eyes. This helps A lot of people are like wow, he looks so awake And this honestly has helped get rid of like all my dark circles and like fine lines around my face So It is a good eye primer. So I think someone keeps asking What specialty I'm in. I don't know. I keep seeing things Um tacky is the word I'm looking for. Yes Oh, what's that? Oh, I work in the ICU Okay, let me put these products on and then we'll do my hair I'll do my makeup. So You know someone who got shot in Arizona. I am very sorry I'm only reading like not even a lot of the comments because if I sit here and read them I want to get like so behind and Yeah So I don't know how I'm gonna do my hair today. I actually have a hair routine video coming out Just need to edit it I did it over like a couple of mornings. Like it's filming me in here get doing my hair But honestly, I think all I'm gonna do today Is do this just okay Just like my hair like And I think I'm just gonna wear this headband This is like my go-to headband because It looks cute A lot of people compliment me on it at work and It just keeps my hair back. Honestly, that's the main reason So I put that on and then Y'all are gonna be amazed you're probably like, well, she's been so much time on her hair How does she do that? And then you're gonna be like, oh That's all she does You'll be disappointed So I just honestly wrap it into like this big bun thingy And I kind of just Oh, I got like a weird loopy hair. Hold on You didn't get like a weird one. I don't mind them so much, but I hope you have an amazing day Lionette But thank you. I hope I have an amazing day too because We've been super busy especially for the summer Like we feel like we've been even busier than in the winter. Okay redo So wrap in this big bud and then I keep wrapping around and around And There we go Hey, they hear me talking. They're like, who's here? And then actually, I don't even know if I want to put a hair spray with F Why not just for a little good measure P. Doke And oh, I gotta put deodorant on. Sorry just being real with you guys here And We're Oh, I haven't even drank my coffee. I always do that and get ready and then I'm like Gotta go and I had to chug the last bit of coffee and then on my way I like Like a caffeine. No, I not a high if that sounds bad, but like caffeine rush where I'm just like kind of jittery Christy, good morning. Christy watches my dogs. I'm about to go drop them off in a little bit. My time is at 6 o'8. Okay Why chug coffee like beer? Are you not? I don't know Okay, so now I'm gonna do my makeup which Is not even right doing makeup because you can see Like my skin is already pretty clear. So I'm gonna put you put y'all back Down here Maybe like that. Okay, whatever. I'm over it. Oops. So I use Again rodin feels stuff the same skincare stuff that I've been using. This is just a peptide powder so it's not even like a foundation and honestly it kind of just Gives your skin like a matte really even finish even though like my face already Has evened out a lot so I just put This on and I really like it like if so soft and it doesn't sit in like your crease line So even if you just got this as like a What's it called like a setting powder that has a little tiny tiny bit of coverage then That would be awesome because it rocks I'll use it as that too. Like if like i'm gonna do like my full on makeup and do like a whole face of makeup I use this as my setting powder so Super light and then when you wash it off, it feels like silk. It doesn't feel like there's anything on your face Look, it feels like you left like a super silky moisturizer on your face and Good morning, Samantha. You wish you could be as cheerful as me in the morning. Um It's all show. I'm just putting on a show for you guys. Just kidding. Actually, I am a morning person I said this a little earlier, but okay This brush honestly feels so good that a lot of times I like not even putting the makeup on I'm just like rubbing my face with it and there's a little more in this cap okay, so that is that and Then I put on okay, so I'll show you my fix after so really like not a huge difference than before But that's kind of the point is like that my skin looks Is doing a lot better it looks good without makeup on so You know, I need to stop moving you guys. Okay. Now, I'm gonna put my mascara on maybe I should do it in the camera Oh, that's kind of creepy Ain't nobody wants to see that It's funny I don't really care. You guys can see me in the morning I've got no shame Okay, this is hard I gotta feel like I'm in a like deck but and you know when you like hit the inside of your um Nose and then or your skin and then you've got a huge black mark and then you're trying to rub it off Sorry, and it just like keeps smearing So I don't even know what the mascara this is deuce Or dj I don't know I got it in my ipsy bag I used to be subscribed to ipsy and I really I really love it and I loved it I um That my only reason for stopping was just that I was getting the skincare stuff And honestly wasn't using the stuff as often as I would like all the products they were sending Eyelashes have been growing so much because I've been using this serum And they're like curling over if if that's even like a thing And uh It's like I love it because my eyelashes are growing But now they like got a mind of their own because they're getting longer They're like, oh, I'm gonna curl this way and the other one's like, oh, I'm gonna curl the opposite way I need to get it curling a eyelash curler That's what I need to do But I'm too lazy No, I'm not too lazy. I need to just get one I just have it it hasn't crossed my mind when I'm fit at the store It crosses my mind every morning when I'm getting ready like, hmm My eyelashes could use an eyelash curler And These are all Curling weird. I'm gonna spend like five more seconds on this and then I'm over it Or whatever, okay So there's my eye. So that's just one coat of mascara. My eyelashes have gotten like super long That's not ridiculous. And then I always take my um brush again And just go back over my forehead lines. My makeup doesn't stick in there, but like I When I have my eyebrows raised for like, you know a minute or two while I'm doing my Brows it like leaves little marks. I don't know They go away on their own. I just always go back over Thinking that's gonna like paint them away They've gotten better. It's not like I've got like wrinkles. It's just that bothers me. Oh, yeah So All right, so that's all I do for my makeup in my hair. See I've got a couple more minutes Oh, I should make the bed. I gotta finish my coffee and brush my teeth and Oh, okay, we're doing a potluck for breakfast at work this morning and Can't forget I was going to bring hard boiled eggs I do put lip balm on. Don't you worry, Kayla? I do put lip balm on I just have to brush my teeth first because it'll all kind of brush off Okay, I have a leftover salad. I'm gonna bring my mom gave that to me and then we're doing a potluck of like English muffins at work and I said I would bring a couple hard boiled eggs Honestly, because we're going out of town. I'm not gonna eat all those before we go out of town and I eat hard boiled eggs on English muffins I don't know if that's weird or not but My people are bringing like bananas and peanut butter and like Avocado I have a few avocados.

I'm gonna go in here So I can sit Sit and enjoy my coffee I really don't have anything to do I don't think usually I'll take this time if I have like five or 10 minutes before I go And I'll just uh Like if I had any dishes or when you switch to laundry or anything like that Hi mom, I think I get it Yeah, happy girl. Oh, hi handsome Two cute pups Two cute pups Let's go read the comments Oh Finish this gotta leave here five minutes two of that is spent brushing my teeth Um Anyone have any questions for me? Sorry, I was reading this I have another mug that is the set for this and it says um Hello handsome and then this one's good morning gorgeous that um My best friends in nursing school got for jesse and I I think it was for My bridal shower So anyway, sometimes I just drink all the one that says hello handsome What shoes do I wear I've been wearing some nikes jesse just got them for me I was wearing sketchers because I got a good deal on them through like my work Like I got like 15 off or something and they came out to be like 40 bucks, which I thought was really decent for work shoes and um They started to stink really bad. I know that's a tmi But like I've got good hygiene and I've never had a pair of shoes Smell so bad like not even like just when you take your feet out of them But like you could smell the it from the outside of the shoe and I know that's gross um but Yeah, so I The jesse got me new shoes because he didn't want those other ones anymore because they stink I know that's kind of funny, but look at this huge bane on my forehead every time I smile Relentless hot How do I mean I just remember things at work? I write them down I write everything down I work in the ICU and yes, I like the unit and why are my dogs so cute? I don't know. I ask them the same thing You have the same problem with them. Oh, I'm yeah, I know that um You know, it's I'm silly, but Like they really stink bad. I even bought like foot powder It's like spray to try and help and it didn't work And like I am not a dirty person Like I and I know shoes are gonna kind of stink regardless like if you went to smell them But like you could smell these like for just walking in a room. It was bad. I think really bad. I don't know what happened Um, sometimes there's no state it's time to write stuff down when busy I know the feeling sometimes you just have to make do and you just have to You know if it's really important that you write it down, then that's a priority and you got to write it down Do you like to have all three or more of my shifts clustered? Yes I've been a nurse for almost two years. You see a lot of alcohol in the background. Those are all empty And I've been collecting them for a long time and I did not drink all those myself But yes, there are a lot of wine bottles back there. Do I like floating like this? I'm just kidding. Um I would say yes and no I actually really haven't been floated on my union. I've been floated to the cv ICU once And it was fine. I don't mind being floated as much to the ICU. I mean, there's nothing like your home unit um but I've never been floated to like telly and stuff and I honestly I'm scared because I haven't done that in so long That I like to have four or five patients. I'm just like I don't know if I can do it Just got your first iron job in cv ICU. That's awesome. I am in a medical surgical ICU Uh make you make you sick you You're gonna telly floor. I admire telly and med search nurses so much because I used to do that. It wasn't really for me um But now I've done ICU. I have just such a different mindset and different focus than when you're on telly med search and So I'm like scared to ever go back. I know I could make it through my shift or whatever But it's just like you have such different priorities in the ICU and a different mind set Whereas on telly, it's like task to task discharge admit to give meds discharge get another admit and in the ICU It's not I mean it's kind of like that, but it's not really um I'll tell you guys a little story to kind of Exemplify that I guess um So Or it's important of all orders as an ICU nurse as any nurse But some nurses get more focused on orders sets and stuff like that, especially like on med surgeon telly Um, there's a little more leeway in the ICU because you are of the doctors right there can communicate with them Not so much on the other floor. It's a little more difficult and when you've got five patients You're just really focused on that and I transferred a patient to telly and she needed two suction sets one because she had an ng tube to low intermittent suction and one because she was just coughing up so much secretions that she was using a little yonker To suction the secretions out. It's my last story. Then I gotta go I guess I'm gonna be running late and uh So when I got there there was no suction sets and they only had room for one in the room So I said well, let's get her the one for the yonker hour because She's coughing up so much stuff and she's had zero output from her ng In the past like six hours, so it'll be fine if it's clamped for a little bit While you find another suction And the nurse was so like hyper focused on but is it in the order for the lower intermittent suction? I said yes, she's like well it Then we need to get hooked up to lower intermittent suction I said yes, but the patient would be more comfortable if she can cough up her stuff into the yonker She's like, well, can she just cough it up in a tissue? And I was like I looked at the patient because she was learning and I was like What would you like to do? Would you prefer to cough in a tissue? Or would you prefer to use your little sucker? And of course you wanted to use that thing and So anyways, it just people get so hyper focused on like what they're supposed to do that they forget like That's what the patient wants anyways I don't know. I told you that story just it kind of frustrated me because the patient was alert and oriented and like I had that patient for several hours and then Like I was kind of being called out in the room for something and I was trying to be like super respectful about it, but Anyways Um, okay, I gotta finish. I've got a little coffee left. I'm coming back. Don't worry. I'm gonna go Because I got a load of dogs up I'm burping my teeth so Thank you guys for watching and we'll have to do this morning. This is kind of fun. So Have a good sunday. I'm sorry. I'm ending like this. This was like totally not professional, but it's fine. So Um, have a great day. I'm gonna have a great shift and I'll talk to you guys later Bye
