@#$% Monday

And that is how I felt this morning. 

I started reading Debbie Macomber's "A Turn in the Road" last night before I went to bed.  Then I started to fall asleep.  I turned out the light and lay in the darkness for almost an hour and sleep would not come.  This went on until 3 am.  Back and forth - read, fall asleep, drop book, wake up, turn off the light, lay in the dark wide awake.  Then do it all over again.  At about 2:30 my leg started getting twitchy, so I finally took a Tylenol PM.  Should have done it BEFORE I went to bed.  But that would have made too much sense.

Finally, I fell asleep (finished the book) then ignored the alarm clock, and the house clock that starts playing music on the hour at 7 am.  Woke up at 8:30 ish, already late to work.  Went to take a shower and had a trickle of water.  Checked the house and yard to make sure we hadn't broken a pipe.  Called the city - there was some sort of water problem (really?!? Couldn't have guessed.)- and had water again at 10:00. 

Not a very good start to the day and definitely not what I had planned to post.  A better post later.  I promise.

You work at home though, right? It could be worse.(maybe) I hate nights like that. I do the same thing sometimes. Tylenon P.M. knocks me out for an hour or two and then I wake up all itchy and twitchy. Hope tomorrow is better.

Whata terrible start! Hope you slept better last night and were able to take a decent shower. I've never used Tylenol PM, Nyquil is my best friend though.
