Our two dogs have it made, they have no worries, they are regularly feed and often walked.
They have a large back garden that they use frequently, mainly destroying my grass and leaving dog eggs all over the place.
However, they are great company and both have unique personalities.
They move around from one flat comfy place to another sleeping their lives away.
For both of us, today was exactly the same. Both stricken by the same cold symptoms and not feeling that things are getting any better, we took our place in the comfy seats not planning to do anything.
It was a really bad night, Kelli couldn’t sleep because I was snoring. I alway dispute this because I cannot hear, and not aware that I am making any kind of sound, other than breathing.
I decamped into the living room hoping that the distance would help. Even with the door closed she could still hear me.
This is when I know that I cannot win, all that remains is to restrict the damage.
Unfortunately this didn’t help, rage ensued with Kelli storming out and going for an early morning drive.
I was running out of options, I concluded that I would try and stay awake, this way I could control what noises I made.
It was a long night, I fell into a doze at times, but woke myself up, and the whole process would start all over again.
To a degree it worked, it was well past seven thirty when she woke, all I could think about was getting some proper sleep, which is exactly what I did.
I drifted off for many hours of undisturbed sleep, it made up for some of the deprivation, but still not ideal.
The rest of the day we joined the dogs binge watching The BIg Bang Theory.
What was in the back of my mind, “Will it be the same tonight?”
