We finally got our Christmas tree decorated yesterday evening! I was wondering if we'd make it this year.
It's weird for me; at first, the SAD lamp seemed pretty disruptive to my sleep (first week or so), but these last couple of weeks, I'm sleeping much more soundly.
That being said, I was still pretty tired this morning from working out hard yesterday, so I did a pilates video, nice and calming. After my shower, I went to Panera Bread to pick up a loaf of French bread to go with dinner tonight along with a breakfast sandwich. Came home, read & used the SAD lamp, did laundry (there's ALWAYS laundry!), sketched, had lunch. My sketching didn't turn out too well today, I didn't seem to have the patience for it. But it was still calming.
Going to read some after lunch, maybe work on a new Spotify workout music list.
Christmas tomorrow shouldn't be a big deal. We were invited to dinner at some friends' house, but their kids are both sick, so that may be off (I kind of hope so). Still have Christmas with my parents, sisters, and extended family on the 28th. Now THAT will be a pain. Too many people in one house, too loud, too much, I just hate it. I will be so glad to be done with it. I wish it could just be my sisters, my mom, and my grandmother, but there's also my dad and 3 sets of aunts and uncles and 5 nieces & nephews. It's too much stimulation for me.
