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 bought a pumpkin pie for Fen and I while I was at the store today. I had to pick up cat food and I figured a little holiday treat would not go amiss.

So, I woke up this morning scared out of my wits because I thought someone was in my room. While it was still dark out, I woke up and could have sworn someone was standing in the middle of my room, looking for something. Scared a year off my days, for sure.

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.
