In an attempt to head off some fatigue threatening to overwhelm, I went to bed around 9:00 last night. I slept relatively well. I didn't even have to get up to go to the bathroom! Alas, when Ben's alarm went off at four, instead of falling back asleep as I usually do, I stayed awake, depriving myself of the last 2 1/2 hours that I really needed... need I add that this was not intentional? So much for that experiment. Tonight, maybe, I go to bed a lot later, but I have a suspicion that's not going to solve the problem.
Why does sleep have to be so difficult for us mothers who need it the most so we can attempt to survive our 24/7 job?
ReplyDeleteI think the world's problems would be greatly reduced if everyone could get as much sleep as they wanted when they wanted it. I would be asleep right now though, and unable to type this comment.
ReplyDeleteBack up the trolley . . . his alarm goes off at four??? What what?
ReplyDeleteYou've got my sympathy, sleep is never easy to come by as a mom. It's more precious than gold I swear.
