Day of rest? Woke up early to work on my abstract.Then when the family woke up three hours later made them pancakes and we decorated the rest of the house. Good news is that we are 100% ready with house and Christmas for whenever baby 2 wants to arrive. The rest of the day until 1:30am was spent finishing the abstract and aims. Unfortunately, I had a lot of primary data analysis to do and that took a lot longer to crunch all the numbers than I thought. That and my OCD gets in the way when it comes to making figures...
