It's about 4:50 am and I've been awake for a few hours and can't get back to sleep. It all started with the fan making a racket and since I'm a light sleeper, it was like torture, so I figured I'd be better off on the couch downstairs (difficulty spelling without my glasses!). Then the dogs wouldn't quit barking. A cat was making a lot of noise. I went for a walk around the corner of the house and it was Tiger. Hissing gone and dogs ain't barking. Now I have this cough and congestion which is keeping me up. Ugh. The only saving grace is I have today off.
Haven't mentioned this before, but Dad is coming to town this weekend. He'll be arriving Friday evening on the Amtrak. How long he stays is his guess. Jeff mentioned that I have him on my days off and when I'm at work, he'll take over. Jim also volunteered to play golf once or twice. Should be a real nice visit. Got Patty (co-worker) shotgun trained enough on the Classifieds that she can take care of these on the many days I'll have off. Thank-youuuu Patty.
Coughing has stopped, uh, no it hasn't. Darn, thought I could go back to bed. Another cough drop, I guess.
