It was so fun having the family over yesterday. and it was so fun having them do a sleepover, and it was fun to have my son's friends over,especially since those friends are going to be moving next week, but MAN am I TIRED.
I barely slept because I was too worried about the kids. I kept having thoughts that one of them was going to leave the house while I slept. It would wake me up out of a sound sleep and then I would have to check that all the kids were still there before I could go back to sleep. Then I wasn't feeling good still and had to get up a handful of times throughout the night to try to feel better. And then the kiddos woke up really early and I couldn't let myself sleep when they were awake so I only got a few hours of sleep.
Then as soon as I was ready to start relaxing for the day, my son's friends came over with their youngest brothers who are toddlers. They are pretty well behaved and nice toddlers but I was super overstimulated from the day before and I didn't feel like I was able to handle having toddlers running around my house. It ended up being fine for the most part. My son also seemed to be very overstimulated and over all the people being in our house too because he was starting to get a bit mean to everyone until he went to sleep for a while. I'm sure he probably barely slept too since he had people in his room all night and was woken up at the crack of dawn too. And he barely sleeps on a good night, poor kid. He inherited my horrible sleep issues.
I drew a new sketch of my art gallery piece which I know I'm running out of time to complete but there was so much else going on that I had to play triage with all of my things. And most of them had deadlines like my sister's birthday, and the taco party, and that kind of stuff which was already scheduled events and I HAD to do A MILLION freaking things for each of those events. That left me with a combination of no time and no energy to even start that project. It's due this Friday. THIS. FRIDAY. I'm going to be starting, like actually starting the inking and all that tomorrow. I'm so nervous about doing this art piece. It's a medium that I have very little working knowledge of and the closest medium to it is watercolor and I'm not very good at that so I'm nervous. At least I have many pieces of this new paper that I'm going to glue to the paper they gave me. That way if I fuck up or anything happens to the piece, I can just make another one.
I have a bunch of administrative things to do tomorrow too but hopefully that won't take too long and I can just focus on the art piece and writing my different projects. I currently have three going and a fourth on my mind. All things that I will be sharing on my substack.
Well I think I'm going to go to sleep. I am so sleepy and I can't think of anything else to write about right now. Oh, actually that's a lie, I happily played Balder's Gate 3 and Winter's Burrow today on the Xbox for a while today. I missed playing my games, it's been SO long. And we went to the Platinum toy store and we got some dice and some stickers and some Balder's Gate 3 blind box dice and I got a legendary one that was so rare it has a card of authenticity with it. And it's for the Dark Urge one! Which is funny because that is the run I wanted to do this time lol. I already beat this run once (and the regular game twice) but I wanted to play it differently than last time. I went full evil the first time I played and I killed like everyone and it was really bad. But this time I'm going to fight the urge and see what that ending is like.
So that will be my reward for getting all of my other things done tomorrow but first I need a lot of sleep.
