I'm having difficulty understanding how some people think........
Since the moment I opened my eyes yesterday, before dawn, I was on the go....helping to set up the community yard sale, coordinating logistics, cleaning up and locking up afterwards, dealing with an emergency when an alarm went off, plus the aftermath of a storm that involved a tornado warning....so by the time I got back home I was EXHAUSTED!!!!!
I'm in bed, between 9:30 to 10:00 PM, trying to get comfortable as I'm feeling muscles I forgot I had, finally start to drift off to sleep when my cell-phone rang. Immediately, I'm thinking that CERT is being deployed in response to the storm damage earlier in the day. I get out of bed, pick up my cell-phone, only to discover it is a new-found cousin calling from New York.
His first words to me are: "Where are you going?"
My response: "I WAS going to SLEEP!"
His reaction: "But it's NOT 10:00 yet! Why are going to bed SO EARLY?!!?"
My comment: "I AM EXHAUSTED AND I HAVE A RIGHT TO GET SOME SLEEP!!! I've been going non-stop since BEFORE DAWN! I WANT TO GO BACK TO BED AND GET THE REST I NEED!"
Sometimes I just have to be BLUNT!
