I had insomnia and could not sleep for anything last night. I've just been having a horrible time sleeping for the last 3 weeks or so. At most I get 3 hours a night. This morning when it started getting light out and still no sleep, I decided I just as well get up and do something productive. I couldn't really do much in the house or I'd wake my Mom and sister up so opted for outside work.
Our alley collects tons of dirt and leaves and I decided I needed to get it cleaned up. The thing is, I couldn't just do may section of the alley. I couldn't stand seeing the mess cleaned behind my house but nowhere else so I did mine and the house next door which is a double lot. Eight bags later I was finally done.
It looked like it might rain and the bags are paper that the leaves go in so I decided I better try to shove them in my garage until pick-up day. Well, my garage was pretty dirty. Somehow leaves and debris get blown in under the garage door so I decided to sweep it out plus I had to do battle with some mighty spider webs too.
Still not sleepy. Decided to clean off the patio. Got that done. I then dug up some day lillies that were creeping where they shouldn't be and transplanted them in a side section where I didn't have much going on.
The one side of the wheel chair ramp needed raking so I did that but I didn't have any leaf bags left so that is all still in a pile.
But now, my back is killing me. But I'm still not sleepy tired. I think I really need to run to Walgreens and grab something to make me sleep. This is getting ridiculous.
But at least I got some things done.
I know I should just go to bed and try to grab a few hours but no, here I am at my computer.

My goodness sake, take time and rest and if nothing else, have a giggle or three with this:
