Argh!

I can't sleep! I've been awake since 2:45, and I can't get back to sleep. This is so damned frustrating. Hubby got home from the cottage and woke me up, and I've been wide awake ever since. I hate to think what I'm going to be like at work later on today. I wish I could just call in sick, but I can't do that, because I know my coworkers would have to work without a replacement, and Friday afternoons can get quite busy. So I couldn't do that to them. I'm going to have a smoke and try to get back to sleep for an hour or so at least.

So tired lately

I don't know what's with me lately; if my iron may be low or something. Ever since I came home from my vacation and have gone back to work, I come home at the end of the day and I'm just totally wiped right out. It's all I can do to stand a little longer to make myself some sort of meager dinner. Almost every night I've been going to bed early, and yet I still don't want to get out of bed when that nagging alarm starts in the morning. Last night I was just beat while I was watching Jeopardy, which is on at 7:30 here. About half way through the show, I decided that before I end up falling asleep on the couch, that I would just go to bed to watch TV for the night. Then if I fell asleep, I'd already be in bed with the alarm clock set for morning. I didn't make it to 10 o'clock, and next thing I knew the alarm was just about to go off. I did actually end up getting up at that point -- only because I had to go to the bathroom anyway, and so did my dog!

Today I actually feel not too bad, so maybe I've just finally caught up on the sleep that I needed or something. It's strange though, because I don't really think I was sleep-deprived on my vacation. At least I didn't feel like I was. I know I was pretty busy every day, going here and there, so maybe that was just it. I'm not used to having such a busy life! Or a life, period, for that matter! Ha!

Can't sleep

Might as well blog since I can't sleep. One thing that sucks about Fridays, is by the time the end of the week comes I'm so bagged from working all week that I usually pass out when I come home from work. Tonight was no exception. I didn't even eat dinner when I got home. I just took my spot on the couch and snoozed for four hours! Which means I'm still wide awake now at almost 4am. I've tried sleeping but all I'm doing is tossing and turning and listening to my husband snore, so here I am, yammering on in my blog!
