Jul. 17th, 2015 09:54 amI am so very, very tired. I'm not actually sure why. Scott came to bed around midnight, so we weren't dreadfully late getting to sleep. I slept straight through until my 5 a.m. alarm (for taking my thyroid med). Usually, I've been waking up and checking the time every half hour to hour and then taking the med whenever I decide the time is close enough so that i can turn off the alarm and not have it wake anybody else.
My bladder woke me about 8:30, and I decided I was up for the day. I'm not sure I should have given how I'm feeling. I probably could have gone back to sleep, but once I took my morning meds, I was committed to getting up. Only Scott's parents were up when I came out. Cordelia and our almost four year old niece came out about ten minutes later, and other people have been trickling in ever since. The almost four year old is currently screaming because her father told her not to grab things out of other people's hands. I think she must be exhausted, too.
Most everybody went to the water park attached to Cedar Point after lunch yesterday. It wasn't dreadfully warm, only about 70F, but the forecast said rain today (and it is raining). The water park tickets were free with the amusement park tickets, though, because Scott found a really, really good deal online (it was only good for one day, or I'd link it). That meant there was a lot less pressure to spend a lot of time at the park or to do things once there.
Scott's parents took a trip to see a lighthouse. They invited me along, but I had link finding to do, and my ankle wasn't entirely happy. (There seems to be a delay in terms of my ankle telling me that I've overdone things. I did very little walking on Wednesday, so I'm putting the trouble down to the walking I did on Tuesday. That fits with the time I went grocery shopping on a Saturday and then had extra pain on Monday.)
Link finding actually took a lot longer than I expected it would even though my connection to Google stayed steady. The last link I followed actually led to an index of recent articles about a variety of fandoms, all meta on a single theme. I tried to figure out a good way to simply link the index, but the articles were fandom specific and were all about different fandoms, so I linked each article. There were a lot of them.
Scott and his brother played some Axis and Allies with our nephew last night. Two turns takes a lot longer than I expected-- I think they were at it for more than three hours. Scott told me they still have more to do before they put the game away.
I finished the book I was reading while I waited for Scott to come to bed. The timing was reasonable-- I finished while he was brushing his teeth, so I put the book down and pulled a pillow over my head to block out the light. I'm not sure what I'll read tonight. I brought another book, but I don't know if I want to pull that out just for one night, not when we're going to be trying to get as much as possible packed before we go to bed tonight.
