1. After spending 9 hours at work, I lack the energy to deal with dogs that won't follow my instruction.
2. I took them outside at least 5 times between 6pm and 11pm, and they still had two accidents inside.
3. I can't sleep when the cuckoo clock in the hall goes off every 30 minutes.
4. The second story is HOT! I had to turn the thermostat down to 62, which is ridiculous. I hate wasting energy like that, but it was unhabitable otherwise.
5. My cell phone reception sucks at their house.
This is what I've decided after last night. I couldn't get to sleep until 1:30 (after stuffing my ears with cotton since I forgot my earplugs), was awakened by the storm at 3am, and pretty much wasn't able to go to a deep sleep after that.
It's hard for me to say no (although I am much better at it nowadays), but I'm gonna have to put my foot down on this one. I miss my bed in my apartment (even with my loud neighbor). I don't function well on less than 6 hours of sleep. Even though I hate to tell their owners no, I've just got to next time.
