Boy was today a wonky but enjoyable day. I didn’t get much sleep last night. Just couldn’t shut down until after four a.m. I’m hoping I can bunk down here in the next few. I’m tired.

Well, I didn’t make it to fifty thousand words this month. Just under 15,000 words short. I tried and I’m going to keep writing, and I believe that it what truly matters. I’ve gotten into the habit of writing daily and I really want to keep that momentum going.

I didn’t get the ten thousand words written that I wanted to today. I got lost down a rabbit hole of research. It is highly unlikely I will hit 50,000 words this month. I could cheat, and just say that I did it, but I’m not going to.

I’m sleep deprived. And took my sleeping medication that didn’t work last night. So I’m fighting to stay awake long enough to knock this out.
I’m still behind in NaNoWriMo, but I haven’t given up yet. I’ve got my therapy appointment with Mx. Steph tomorrow at eleven, so I’m going to spend most of my day writing if I can.
I’m goi to go appease the Duolingo owl and go to bed.
Take your meds folks.

I’m cramping like hell today. I know I’m hydrated, so it’s likely my uterus throwing a fit. And the fact that I had to haul a giant tub of mail to the post office today. Either way, some stretching helped a bit.
