Hazel Cannot Sleep Without Pills

It's the morning of the solstice. I've been awake for an hour or so. I just opened the curtain and there's a little bit of grey light outside. I can't tell if it's because it's so early or because it was raining up until a few minutes ago. Either way, it should get lighter soon.

Yesterday I pushed myself and it paid. I'm confused and not very well-rested, but at least I know definitively that cutting out coffee doesn't solve my sleep problem. That doesn't mean I'm going back to drinking coffee full time, though.

Today I want to do some things to improve my living environment, and I want to write. I will probably also want to get some sleep in the middle of the day. First, though, I need to warm up. No use trying to wash dishes while huddled in a fleece blanket.
