Tonight we celebrated my oldest daughter's 12th birthday. Her actual birthday was on the 7th of this month, but it was her dad's weekend. Per her request, we had chicken tenders, her Mawmaw's biscuits & gravy, mashed potatoes, peas, and Oreo pie. My fiance had picked her out two video games that she apparently loved, judging by the squeals and hopping. I'm so glad he knows how to pick out stuff like that because I am clueless.
I had an odd thing happen tonight right before we left to go to my mom's for the birthday dinner. I had one of my typical out-of-the-blue Ice Pick Headaches, but it lasted longer and actually made me drop down to my knees. Afterwards, I felt so...weird. Disoriented and swimmy-headed. My legs didn't seem to want to work correctly. It took a lot of effort to walk. I seem to be back to normal now, but it was a very strange ordeal. My guess is that it was a combination of not eating all day (oops!) and sleep deprivation. Not only has Baby been eluding bedtime, but my insomnia is acting up again, primarily due to the racing thoughts. No Food + Not Enough Sleep = Ice Pick Terror. This lesson has been noted, and hopefully I can avoid a repeat.
I suppose I should try to go back to sleep now. I love having my girls here, but it wears me out. I need all the rest I can get before morning!
Oh, our only vehicle decided to start acting up again today. Because life was not fucking us up the ass enough already.
