It is difficult to sleep alone after a week of not doing so.

First three days I was back home I had nyquil to help me along, but I am no longer sick.

Insomnia is back.

*sigh*

3 good nights in the middle though.

Hey look!

My hair is kind of red!

Yay!

Seriously.

Haven’t been able to sleep through a whole night since New Years Eve.

I didn’t feel like doing anything, so I spent an hour curling my hair.

It will probably be another year before I do that again, takes way too long.

I promise I will stop being too busy for you soon.

The sculpture is almost done (I will post the in progress pics I took and everything).  Holidays are winding down.  Definitely am busy the rest of this week, but after that things should settle back down to only being busy with school.  Until I disappear to the other side of the mountains for a week.

I REALLY DO LOVE YOU ALL!

And hello new followers!  I promise I am actually active!

Maybe the internet will have more news upon my return.

And maybe I’ll feel compelled to work on things.

First part is the fun spaghetti mixing process to get the clay to a nice even gray tone.  Needs to be gray to show imperfections and so that painting is easier.

Second picture is the sculpture with basic blocking.  Definitely no details yet, just lumping clay on for a basic form.

Since I was in third grade I have gotten excruciating leg pains at regular intervals in both legs.  Usually once a month, sometimes multiple times in a week.  Tylenol helps… eventually. It does not hurt to stand on or to touch.  There is no swelling or other indication that my leg hurts. Nothing except this pain that seeps from my knee down through my calf and up my leg.  When this happens I cannot do anything except curl up in bed because it is so painful.  Not that laying in bed helps anything, unless I miraculously fall asleep.  To put this in perspective, I get migraine headaches, and this is worse about 90% of the time.

I went to the doctor this morning for congestion issues, and I brought up this pain again.  Both my pediatrician from before, and my current primary care doctor have no idea what is going on.  I have gotten x-rays and blood work done, multiple times.  Today he said that it is probably some random neuropathy that no one can figure out because it is so rare.  Just something I will have.

Luckily, unlike other peoples health issues, this rarely interferes with my life. It happens primarily at night, so the most it has interfered with is late night homework.  However now, hearing that I will probably just have to deal with this terrible pain for the rest of my life is disheartening.  I still have options to try and find out what is wrong though.  Next order of business is seeing if there is a pattern to it so I will be writing it down every time.  From there I will see a neurologist.

Thanks for listening tumblr, if anyone has any ideas go ahead and send me an ask.

Here, have a gif.

This sums up my day.

Seriously. Cleaned the whole house.

Ironed.

Washed doors.

Wiped down baseboards.
