I know I am! But damn, I’m so tired right now. I seriously can’t wait to go to bed! But my House addiction (thanks a lot, Jason!) will most likely interfere with the amount of sleep I ultimately get. Instead of going to sleep right away, I’ll probably watch an episode of House first. Maybe two, if I’m really interested in punishing myself.
Ugh. I feel so crappy right now. My MIA period finally arrived this morning. Nothing like being over ten days late. No worries, though, because I knew I wasn’t pregnant. I was tested about a half an hour before I was taken in for surgery, and I figured that the surgery and sudden nutrition and subsequent hormonal changes would mess with my cycle. No big surprise that it did. I’m just annoyed that my period decided to grace me with its presence on Christmas Eve! And I’m feeling extra crappy because I haven’t taken any iron pills (mild anemia) since the week before surgery, and I can’t take anything for the horrible cramps that radiate down into my thighs and shins. Although I do have half of a bottle of liquid Vicodin left… and I’d be lying if I said it didn’t sound pretty tempting right about now!
Being fatigued and in pain made me cranky tonight, and I feel bad for that. 
Thankfully Dan was home, and he helped set up the Easy Bake oven that Jason got for her for Christmas. Ryan spent the evening watching what we were doing, picking at sprinkles while I was baking cookies for Dan’s brothers, and playing with his new Thomas the Tank Engine train set (Jason’s Christmas gift to him).
So… 11:28pm. If it weren’t for House, I don’t think I could stay awake until midnight!
Merry Christmas everyone! 
P.S. I’m charging my Nikon battery and Kodak Zi8 as I type this! We are totally set for the morning! ♥

I hate those kind of cramps, they are the worst! I hope they eased up today. I actually ended up with some great shots of sydney, didn’t take many, but what I did turned out nice.

I love your Christmas tree and from skipping ahead, it looks like you had a fabulous Christmas!
As the domain name suggests, my name is Jenn, and I own this blog. I'm 26 years old and married to my one true ♥, Daniel. And while I have two kids (Alyssa is five, and Ryan is three), you won't find "mommy" in my username or email address, nor does my blog revolve around them. I'm a mother, but most importantly I am me, with a passion for love, blogging, reading, and photography. I'm also a busy freelance writer, web designer & SEO goddess.
I’m charging my camera batteries as well. I hope that since the morning brings some natural light I’ll be able to get some okay shots at my Dads. MERRY CHRISTMAS!
