Tired, I’m So Tired…..!
TALES FROM THE BRAT FARMI really AM tired today. I could NOT sleep last night. I was suffering all day with a bout of IBS and, once my bowels were emptied, I was left with an enormously distended abdomen. I was so glad I didn’t have to do any walking around somewhere because I would have been a real life walking *granny fart* caricature. Trust me on that.
I decided to lay back in my recliner for a while, hoping the gas would pass and I would get rid of the stomach *ache*. I fell asleep and ended up waking myself up shortly thereafter and having to put on the fan. I put a can of Febreze (Moroccan Bazaar) next to me so I wouldn’t asphyxiate myself by accident.
I gave up trying to sleep after a while and just laid there, watching DVD’s of my favorite movies. I know I snoozed off a time or two but I have pretty much walked around groggy all day long from lack of proper sleep.The Beast knew what was going on and just ignored the fact that I didn’t darken our bed. He was actually kind of grateful, I think.
The heat index today to up to 106. I watched the temperature start climbing up into the 90′s by 9am. By noon, it was almost 100 actual degrees. If the humidity had been higher (it was only 36%), so would the heat index. We kept lights off to keep the inside temperature of the house down since I know how much they can add to the heat in a room just from my computer room. It’s considerable. Try it yourself at home and you’ll see.
I just found out I won’t be getting Chewlee tonight like I thought I might so guess what I am going to do? I’m going to bed early. Like as soon as I can get into my jammies.
Love you all and I wish you a fantastic day and weekend. Enjoy yourself and keep cool, for heaven’s sake.
