Good Morning and Happy New Year

Okay, I haven't thrown up in 23 hours. I went to bed within five minutes of the baby - that is to say, I was in bed by 9:30 - and I don't remember anything else until she started waking up at 2:30. That means I got five uninterrupted hours of gravol-induced sleep. (I took the gravol as a preventative measure before I went to bed. This time, it seems to have worked.) The baby was up on and off after that until about 5:00, when Piet actually rocked her back to sleep. Since then she's slept. So has he. I did until 7:30, but I wasn't tired anymore so I got up. I like that feeling.

I think this was the first New Year's since I was about 12 that I didn't stay up until midnight - though there were one or two at-home New Year's where I went to bed at 12:05. I don't regret it. I feel much better this morning.

Agenda for the day: eat little, drink lots of juice and stuff, see the in-laws, go to my mother's for dinner, probably avoid eating much of it. (Originally, [livejournal.com profile] summerfields were supposed to fly home out of Buffalo today, but since their flight was delayed by last week's snow, they're actually here until tomorrow now. I said yes to New Year's Day at my mom's because I thought they'd already be gone. Now they're still here, and we're in a bit of a bind. Not that I'm complaining of course - but I want to be able to see everyone without offending anyone. We'll see.)

I really should go down and get some juice, but I'm afraid going down the stairs will wake up the baby, and I don't want to do that. So I'll wait.

Happy New Year, everyone!
