Nov. 24th, 2017 08:30 amThis is the first day while on levothyroxie where I've mashed the snooze button to delay getting up. And then I set a timer for a 25 minute nap. Not because I wasn't awake, because I was, but because I was still tired. The backstory on that is that for the last three-five hours of wakefulness the night before I could not stop sneezing both up the mountain and down, so in order to forestall getting a head cold while having to work retail on Black Friday I took NyQuil. I'm not sure if it was the NyQuil that knocked me out or the head cold, but I was fairly wonky this morning. But also way more awake than I usually have been when I'm wonky, which was the strangest damn feeling. Anyway, with luck I've kicked the head cold before it had a solid chance to begin and I'll be fine, which is good because this weekend is both capoeira class for the first time since being on thyroid meds and a goodbye roda for Puck.
How glad am I that I'm on proper meds and have energy and so on when I'm going to be the senior student to one teacher at class? SO GLAD.
Also rather glad I have proper meds for working retail Black Friday. Which I technically am not working the retail side, I'm working the shipping side, but that doesn't mean I won't get called out to the front of the store if there are Things Going Down. Or, more likely, what happened on Wednesday which is I'll get called to fetch and carry things we normally keep in the back. And keep a running restock of what's been going away. Fun fun fun.
Never have I ever been so glad to have finished Nanowrimo before Black Friday oy. It used to be that I'd get both Thursday and Friday off because UPS took Friday off. Not so much anymore. Poop.
Still. I have a novel finished, I have a (crappy right now) anchor novella that needs serious major work done to it but it's getting drafted, I have a short story to draft, I have a novel getting rewritten that's actually doing far far better this time around thank god, so writing productivity is happening. I feel good. I feel amazing I even got exercise done this morning despite waking up very late. The house is starting to be a disaster area but I feel like cleaning it might even get done this weekend. I have a lot to be thankful for, and I am.
ETA: I have now remembered I took 2mg of melatonin on top of taking NyQuil because I was very out of it last night and that probably explains everything. Oops.
