She says ooo were you sleeping... grrrrrrrr... so i have to try to be polite and kind and try not to snap at her because when I am sleepy I am not nice to be around.. But I don't want to hurt her feelings.. She is lonely.. I try my best to be polite.... but underneath I am grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrring big time... an extra grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr today cuz I am extra tired...

oo i forgot to mention... She will knock for 30 minutes for me to answer the door....She will wait outside on the deck... I always thought if one doesn't answer the door , nobody is home...shrugs shoulders... in a way "nobody is home" when I am sleeping.... 30 minutes of puppy barking and her nocking on the window I have to get up to quiet the dog and her knocking... you'd think she'd go home after 5 minutes... nope she waits and waits and waits and waits.. gonna start taken naps in the bathroom and shut the door..
You should do what I do. I have some 'do not disturb' signs for my doorknob that I brought home from hotels. When I REALLY want to be left alone I hang it on the door as my message to the world. It works quite well.
