I actually got a good 8+ hours of sleep, last night, but I am, quite frankly, exhausted. I'm feeling tired, weak, and have actually had dizzy spells after stretching while sitting down. Yesterday, I was doing much better, alertness-wise, on less than 6 hours. Where is the logic, I ask you?

It is way too late for me to be up, yet here I am. My husband and daughter are apparently (and fortunately) blissfully asleep, but after lying sleepless in bed for more than half an hour, I decided I might as well get up and knit. I did have a nap, this evening, but that shouldn't be keeping me up, as I was short on sleep from last night, and I do feel tired. The baby is not kicking me awake, nor do I have heartburn (I've found a bedtime snack of banana smoothie seems to at least dampen that issue).

I was thinking, earlier this evening, that I was going to write a blog entry about all the things I have on the needles, and how I'm trying to figure out how I'll possibly get it all done even remotely on time... and then I logged onto Facebook.

It is just after 6 am, and I have been studying for an hour. My last Anatomy & Physiology exam is this evening, and I just finished a (probably) final review of the last of the material to be covered. Hopefully my brain is functional enough that the information will stick.

... lost her mittens, and she began to cry... "Want mittens back!"

However, the little blue mittens, handknit from fingering weight merino wool that my darling girl picked out from the yarn store, herself, were nowhere to be found. Returning to the produce market (our only previous stop on our errands run), and conducting a search also failed to yield the mittens. Ditto with having a staff member check the lost and found. The mittens were just gone.

Last night, Arazyr and I went to my 20 year high school reunion. I had a pretty good time - saw and talked to quite a few people, and the food was fantastic! I think the DJs seriously needed a clue, though - they really should have figured out, when just about everybody spent most of the evening in the hallway outside the ballroom where the event officially took place, so they could chat (at a shout, because of the music inside the room), that it was time to turn the music down, at least a little. Ah, well.

Lots of updating to do!!!

First off, just on the outside chance that anybody was concerned, Arazyr has been back to work, since about mid-September - a couple of weeks after I last posted. We're still doing a bit of catch-up on stuff, from that really lean period (let me tell you, a family of three and a half trying to live on one person's unemployment insurance only works as long as the family's financial reserves last), but things are definitely looking up.

I have a couple pieces of good news to share today.

First, I have launched (another) new gaming materials website. This new site is called Excavated Esotera.

Hey, look! It is another of my infrequent blog entries... not that it matters, as I don't think much of anybody reads this stuff, anyway, but...

I'm done with my nutrition class, and while I haven't gotten my official grade, yet, I know I'm getting an A - I got something like 96% of the possible points in the class, and that comes up as an A, pretty much no matter how you slice it. So... one class down.

...and so another large gap in the blog comes to an end.
