Tiny Complaints

There’s a light partway up the mountain across the valley from us this morning. The mountain is national forest, but there are insets, so it s probably a barn at the back of someone’s field. I just hope it’s a light on a switch and not a new always- on booger light.

I was in bed for 10 hours and only slept for 7. Now I’m both tired and behind.

Original forecast was for 3-5" between Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Now it is maybe 1" Eve, 1" Day. STOP PLAYING WITH MY HEART.

I am physically done. But also I have a tray of cookies in the oven and one waiting to go in, and a person on their way here, so lying down to sleep seems like not the best idea

I need to decide if I’m going to go all the way home to change clothes or stop and spend $ on a new shirt because my tactile defensive self is dying in this itchy sweater.

Picked up a new credit card for next year (remaining family is scattered and I’m usually the one who gets to travel, but I have a standing goal not to pay $$ for it and am working my way through the various rewards cards). I just found out that they’ve changed their policy about getting temporary cards online prior to the real cards arriving, which means that to use it for the insurance bill that was going to be about a quarter of the minimum spend I’m going to have to pay that insurance on literally the last day possible and hope it processes correctly/immediately. It should be okay, but that’s the kind of thing I prefer to have done at least a few days in advance, just to be safe.

Rain has interfered with my attempts to walk the dog the last two days. Today should be clear but I’m even more tired now than I was when I went to bed last night. Kiddo may have given me a cold. Going back to bed is not an option, although the pupper gave me excellent cuddles this morning on the couch.

I don’t actually care about the holidays (ok ok, I do like the transition to the new year), but I MISS MY FRIENDS/HAVING FRIENDS. :pensive:

My catproof holiday decorations display is, apparently, no longer catproof. Someone has been visiting it for the past 2 overnights and knocking shit down. Bad kitties!

My MIL gave me weird expensive gifts for Christmas and now I have to figure out what to do with them. They were too expensive to just donate, but she never includes gift receipts and so now I have to go through the trouble of trying to sell them.

I have a fever.

Bigger complaint: My host loves me but is clearly getting irritated by my uselessness. She was expecting me to be my usual helpful self. I feel like shit for not being able to do most of the things.

Boo. I was thinking of you this morning and hoping your forum quietness was because you were sleeping a lot and/or having fun.

I’m also doing those things! But things aren’t perfect. This disorder ruins everything. It has introduced a caregiver element to my relationship with one of my oldest friends and neither of us appreciate it.

@smacky Maybe she isn’t irritated as much as she is subconsciously anxious about how to relate to you in this version of your body.
