Kay's Day - 07/04/2011

Very boring day for me today. Did not get to sleep last night until 2:15 am. It seems that when I am with people the day before and then they go home, I seem to have more trouble going to sleep on those nights. I noticed it last week when I was out with some friends and now I noticed it after Keith left yesterday. I slept in until around 8:15 am this morning and I was still extremely tired when I woke up. My eyes are very tired and sore from crying and from lack of sleep. During the night when I was lying awake, I got up and wandered around the house a couple of times. Once I looked out on the patio and noticed that there was a rat running around on the patio. I'm guessing it is there because I put out wild birdseed and the seed that falls on the ground from the feeder ends up in corner of the patio and the rat comes out at night to eat the seed in the corner. After I got up and had breakfast, I drove over to Home Depot and got some rat poison. Came home and cleaned up the seed in the corner of the patio and put cubes of rat poison in about 3 places. Came in and watched TV for awhile until it was time to make lunch so I did that and watched my soap opera. After that I drove over to the grocery store to pick up a couple of items. The store was very crowded. Came back home and turned on The Twilight Zone marathon. Around 1:30 pm I fell asleep on the sofa and woke up around 3:15 pm. Now I am very groggy and my eyes are still very tired and sore. Ben and I never really did much on holidays, but at least he was home from work on those days and we spent them together. We'd watch TV and then maybe go out for a drive. This being along really sucks.
