I have been awake since...3:00 (when H got home from his work party). I woke up with a headache, so I took 2 excedrin and tried to go back to sleep. No dice. At 4:45 I just rolled with it and got up to start some laundry.
The laundry's all finished, I loaded and unloaded the dishwasher, wrapped Christmas presents, fed DD breakfast, played with her and read to her, had 3 cups of coffee, made myself scrambled eggs, did my morning internet rounds and it's 7:06. Now I know how my mom gets so much done, LOL!
This is going to come back to bite me when I crash at 11:30 a.m., but at least it's a quiet day at work and DD is at the sitter all day.

interesting! I am usually ok with a couple motrin and followed up with some of the good sudafed and a heating pad to my head if it persists. But I know I wouldn't be able to sleep after taking excedrin, I am a little sensitive to caffeine. No coffee for me after 3pm!
LOL. We could've chatted at 445. That's about my usual wakeup time. It's nice though, I get a lot done before I head out to farm or school some days because Rubes is asleep until 6:30.
Just don't talk to me after about 8:45pm..ha.
And I love EXCEDRIN. I can't wait until I'm not pregnant for that reason alone...ha.
Dairy how do you get up so early? I am up at 6, sometimes 5:45 and it is solo hard for me even though it's been routine for close to 10 years
It was hard. Before we got married, I used to be a night owl, so it's a complete 180. It helps that H is a morning person and bouncing off the walls talking...ha. I've also come to appreciate the silence. I either leave for school at 7:30 or head to the barn with Rubes at 6:45ish so I get a lot done in that hour and a half (laundry, bills, cleaning, meal prep, etc.) On the days I'm home it leaves my afternoons open for errands, exercise, activity with Rubes which is nice.
As I said though, I'm dead to the world by 8:45pm these days..ha.
