I got to bed late last night, later than I usually do. I figured I could get a little more sleep this morning so it would work out.
No. It didn’t.
I ended up getting about five hours of sleep. A certain small furry someone who shall remain Sirocco-less apparently can’t stand me sleeping. At around 5:45 AM he came in and started whining. I figured I’d best get up to check on him, given his recent run-in with Magdalena.
There didn’t see to be any great emergency other than he needed pets. After getting sufficient scritches, he went back to sleep. Regrettably being up that long made it so I couldn’t get back to sleep.
< heavy sigh >
I got up and got some work done, walked the beasts, then prepared to get the wife to her doctor’s appointment.
Side note: the vet told me to wrap Magdalena’s leash around my hips and hold it in front of me when I walk her. That way when she tries to bolt I get more leverage due to lower center of gravity. It worked! I was able to better handle her o the walk. Ain’t physics grand?
After we got all the above done, we made it back home. Then we tackled the garage again.
We got more shtuff cleaned out, sorted, thrown out or set to take somewhere to donate. I don’t have the energy I had in my previous day. I was worn out after about an hour and a half.
I went to take a short nap. I got Major Tom and Magdalena outside so they could enjoy some play time in the backyard. The weather was nice so they could lounge around as well if they so desired. Sirocco stayed inside.
I set a timer, lay down, and drifted off almost immediately. Then a few minutes later, a certain small furry someone who shall continue to remain Sirocco-less, came in and started whining. I guess he wanted to make sure I wasn’t dead or something because once I acknowledged his presence he lay down for his own nap. I couldn’t really get back to sleep at that point so I just laid there until the timer went off.
And now we’re at the end of the day. I’m tired and need some sleep. I’m cutting this short so I can hit the hay.
Hope you get some decent sleep, my Hordeling.
