I need sleep

need sleep


I turned 27 in May and moved back in with my dad, stepmom, 11 year old sister, and 3 inside dogs. It seemed like a good idea. I am in my last year of my masters and doing internships, so it seemed like a great way to save money. For the most part it is great. I am saving money and/or have more money to shop with. :) I am getting the chance to reconnect with my family. I live right down the road from my nephews (Justin Michael 5 and Logan 2).  Life back at home defiantly has it perks. 

Before I decided to move back home I knew it would have it's draw backs. I am used to coming and going as I please, having friends over to hang out, and doing what I want when I want (like dancing around to loud music or spending rainy days on the couch in my pj's watching movies and cartoons). I also knew I would not have as much alone/quite time; which I cherish so very much. I never imagined that I would have to give up my sleep. 

The 3 inside dogs that I mentioned before, did i mention that they are all under 1 year old? So basically we have 3 puppies in the house. I love them. They are all sweet rescue dogs. (This is a plug to support your local shelter) For about the last 2 or 3 weeks Molly the only girl dog that is about 9 months old has decided to take my room for her own. She comes and goes as she pleases at any time. The house is older, and my door will close but it will not latch. So all she has to do is paw at it to come in. 

I don't sleep very well so her coming in and going out is very disturbing. Not to mention the whining, the need to be held, and early morning belly rubs. To make matters worse for the last two nights she has brought friends to the slumber party. All 3 dogs decided to come see me at 2 am. (This is the 4th night in a row I have been woken at 2 am) Then to make it worse at 6 am they are up ready for the day. Last night when they all came all I could do was cry. I feel like I am never going to sleep again. I am about at my wits end. 

Seriously sleep deprived, 
Cary
