There's a Mirror On the Wall

It's grey and I'm achey all over, but at least my head is not pounding today. It started to do that yesterday afternoon, and got bad enough I decided tylenol and advil were a good idea. (Because at this point, in order for them to do anything, I keep painkillers as a last resort for pain, usually when nothing else works and all I want to do is curl up in a ball and cry.)

My hands ARE hurting enough I'm going to go after the salve I have for that. Arnica is my friend.

I hope everyone has a safe New Year's if you're celebrating, and a good sleeps if you're not, when you get to that point. And that everyone has a fantastic day regardless.

*buries face in pillow and screams with frustration*

At least it wasn't DIFFICULT to fix the problem. And the person on the other end of the phone was fantastic, and made things very easy, so the thing is sorted.

And on another note, I'll have Magnificent Seven to watch after the doctor's appointment tomorrow. (How many times can one package leave a facility? Half a fucking dozen, apparently.)

I hope everyone has a fantastic day, and good sleeps when you get there.

I got more sleep than usual, if in three distinct chunks of time, because Marisol decided that playing on the altar was a fantastic idea. Twice.

The space heater in the bathroom is not entirely behaving, though it at least did not crap out in the middle of the night. I turned the temp down on it so it might have a chance to have some serious downtime during the day today.

I've been running an experiment with some tape sticky-side out on top of my divider screen for the living room, and it seems to be keeping Marisol OFF the top of it, so that's a success. May never be able to take it off except to replace it, but I can live with that.

Yesterday was a very scattered day, because ADHD brain, but I got some stuff worked on, at least. Hopefully today will be better on that front.

Also, it is sunny again today, which is awesome, and makes my brain happy.

I hope everyone has a fantastic day, and good sleeps when you get there!

I slept late, but the cats and me are all fed, I've gotten the bed made and gotten dressed and opened the curtains, and taken my morning meds. Everything is at a low level ache, and I'm still feeling like everything is too much, especially noise.

(Ok, so that may be a silent migraine, but it's not coming with the usual brain fog, so I don't even know.)

The sun is shining, and making the muslin that is the window side of the canopy glow so I will have some hours of suitably diffused-but-bright light. Direct sunlight is not my friend, but I am still a solar-driven critter and will get cranky without regular sunlight.

Marisol and Sigdis, upon their return from the vet, first bolted for the bedroom and under the bed, then snubbed me briefly, but I had a secret weapon called breakfast. And then I had clingy cats who craved reassurance all day that I still loved them and they wouldn't have to go back to the vet any time soon. Marisol is about six pounds and Sigdis is eight or nine, I forget precisely, and both are at good weights for them. And Marisol got all the necessary shots, and all is well, so we're good until toward the end of next year.

There was some snow yesterday, and then a lot more of wintry mix, so there is no snow remaining by the time I woke up this morning.

And I'm going to go attempt to do something, and I'll see what something is over the course of the day. I hope everyone has a fantastic day and good sleeps when they get there!

Slept a bit late this morning, but didn't oversleep the feed the cats alarm. So they're fed, and I have my breakfast in front of me, my bed is made, the mini lights are plugged in, and the water pitchers are refilled.

Still need to finish getting dressed and open the curtains fully, but that can wait until AFTER food.

Making progress on the TEFT (Tolkien Elves Family Tree), and have learned possibly more than I wanted to about heraldic ordinaries and cadency markings than I want to know, but it's useful.(Thank you Scotland for having a fantastic system of cadency markings to give me an idea what the fuck I'm doing for "and now I can trace this person back up their line EASILY".)

Got more cord done while reading Of a Linear Circle yesterday. Saw a something I missed the first and second read-throughs, and am pleased with myself for that. I'm on Part VIII at the moment, and forget how far I have to go before I catch up to where things are at currently, but I figure it'll be another several days before I get there, just because I tend to leave the reading until later in the day.

I hope everyone is having a fantastic day, and has a good sleep when you get there!

Another bedtime post probably a good while before I go to bed. Today has been a weird day, but not a bad one.

Hugs for everyone, and I hope you all sleep well!
