All the stuff going on keeping me up thinking again - Who else is having trouble sleeping?

My break from work is almost over. I have 3 10.5 hour days and an 11 hour day coming up starting wednesday. (the 11 hour day is the day that I had to take a different shift because I have a nurse appt for shot)

Between that, the house search and the wedding, I cant sleep tonight.

I know that I need to power through these last 2 weeks of heavy hours, but I cant help thinking of how exhausted I was at the end of my 3rd day of 10.5 hour days last week.

Anyway, I will plow through. But it doesnt change the fact that I cant get it off my mind.

Who else is the sandman skipping tonight? (WHo else cant sleep?)

I’m ok. I dont think Im going to let myself burn out, no. Doesnt mean I wouldnt rather just go to part time instead of this full time stuff for 3 weeks, though.

How are you?

Just listen to your body. If it’s too much then you need to slow down.

I’m fine. I’m waiting until it’s morning then I’m going to take a long needed shower.

I have no choice but to finish out the schedule Ive made for the next 2 weeks, so I really cant slow down. THey required a certain amount of shifts for these 2 weeks.

After that, I have a flexible schedule.

I really have to power through.

Thank you though.

When I was a receptionist at a doctor’s office, I had to train for a week at the main hospital about an hour away and I had to be there very early in the morning.

It was a long week but I kept telling myself there was an end in sight.

Good luck with your training @Bowens.

Hey there Bowens. You might already be in the sack but I’m up late tonight like always haha.

I’m debating on growing out another beard, or going back to clean shaven every other day routine.
