Tired

I am so stinking tired right now. I went to bed last night at about 10:00, and slept fine from about 10:30 or so until 12:15. Then I had get up to use the bathroom, and when I came back, I couldn't get back to sleep, mostly because Willow was growling. Like, growling non-stop for hours on end, keeping me awake. I yelled at her, I got up and tried to make her stop, but nothing worked until finally, at about 3:30, I got up and put her in her crate in the living room. She stayed quiet for about two hours, so I managed to get a couple hours of sleep myself. Then she started barking, so I had to get up and get her.

Anyway, so all told, I was in bed for about 8 1/2 hours, and managed to sleep for about 3 1/2 or 4 hours. Fun! I called in late to work, because I was so desperate to get a little more sleep, but it didn't work. This time it wasn't Willow's fault, it was just that I couldn't get to sleep. So I got up and went to work. And somehow I made it through the day and now I'm home, waiting for it to be late enough to go to bed. I could go to bed right now (it's 7:30), but if I do, I'll be up way too early. So I'm making myself hold out until 9:00.

Wish me luck for sleeping tonight. Willow has been grumbling the whole time I've been home. I don't know why she feels compelled to growl all the time. Her life before I adopted her may have been horrible, I don't know, but she has a good one now, and has had for almost a year. What does she have to be so unhappy about? Anyway, if she keeps me awake tonight, I may just lose my mind, which would be very bad for both of us, so think good, quiet dog thoughts, okay? Thanks.
