I slept pretty well last night until my cat Pecan started head-butting me to get up and feed her. When that didn't work, she laid next to me, her head opposite to mine, flicking her tail in my face. That got me up. 4 AM.
I took care of the cats, did pilates, showered, used the SAD lamp & read. Today we are having Christmas with my parents, grandmother, sisters, and extended family. I'm not really looking forward to it. It's too many people in one house, too loud, too much stimulation. On top of it, I'm due to start my period (2 days late but that happens), and just watch me start right at this celebration. It is a 1.5 hr drive each way to my family's house, and that is not much fun too especially since I have to sit in the backseat because H drives and my daughter tends to get carsick so does better in the front seat. Can't wait for this to be over.
