Moving in
Talking about moving into a unfinished apartment complex. I tried to sleep there yesterday, but the debris and dust made my asthma worse. I say:
I've tried sleeping there and I just can't. Or
I've tried sleeping there and I just couldn't.
WHich are useable and what's the difference?
Thanks!
