Sleep!

I was awoken in the night by Greta. Yes, Greta enjoys tormenting me, by waking me up at 3 AM. I was so groggy and cold and I couldn’t find my robe. I did find a jacket that barely covered my bottom. So out I went into the frost in my underwear socks, slippers and jacket. Oh thank you dear Lord that there were no Paparazzi outside to capture that on film!

I came inside and Greta decided that she did not want to go back to bed. After an argument with her, I gave up and went back to bed. I pulled the warm blankets over my body and pulled Arnie closer…and “bark, bark, bark!”

So I got up and this time told Greta to get into the bedroom and stop all this silliness and go to sleep! I managed another couple of hours before it was time to start the day.

I put the puppies outside in their pen and spent half an hour washing up their room. I cleaned everything, washed the floor and fed them. All that before drinking my first cup of coffee!

Hubby had a meeting this morning and so I fed him and sent him off with Fritz for a working meeting in the woods. Meanwhile I stayed home alternately cleaning the puppy room, walking them and then cleaning the puppy room again!

Later in the day our friends came by for a puppy visit and then later on Makenna arrived to run the pups for us.

Tonight, the pups and I are all exhausted. I think we will all get a good night sleep. At least I hope so. I do know one thing. Greta will be walked two seconds before we go to sleep.

  1. Oh no, poor you!
    I was so tired yesterday that I fell asleep last night as soon as my head hits the pillow. I slept until my alarm went off at quarter to 6 today.
    And now? I am at work and still dead tired.

  2. Greta sounds like she could have been one of us internet nerds with disturbed body clocks… *giggles*

    I hope it improves. I do know how it is to not get enough sleep…. ouch.

  3. I really don’t think I could do it! You are amazing! The weekend will soon be here with the bittersweet moments of Good-byes to most of the pups and hello to more sleep and less cleaning! Love YOU, Mel
