Two days a week (the typical weekend) is just not enough. The pandemic has added a whole new layer of hard to life for the last 15 months... <br /><br />I hope your Sabbatical brings restful sleep. Eventually. No pressure!! :) I just hope with each passing week you feel better. And I know you will. <3 A little bit at a time.Infertile Phoenixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11033358612204465661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3354761566702250657.post-79266369027738445952021-06-14T05:16:00.673-07:002021-06-14T05:16:00.673-07:00I am with Loribeth - I have had sleeping problems ...I am with Loribeth - I have had sleeping problems for years, too. I actually blame the stress from fertility treatments for it; I do hope my Sabbstical will help! Of course I am glad that there are no additional things that keep me from sleeping ;-).<br /><br />I love the chat you had with your Department Lead, too. You handled this so lightly and naturally ♡.Elainehttp://www.elaineok.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3354761566702250657.post-45702436376995512732021-06-13T08:02:04.087-07:002021-06-13T08:02:04.087-07:00I will take my sleeping privilege!

(Although things may even out somewhat during menopause, lol.) Being both childless/free AND retired, even if I've had a lousy night's sleep, I don't have to get up early for work (or anything else) most mornings, and I can sleep in or nap to make up for the hours lost. :) As I've said before about childlessness, there has to be SOME compensation, right? ;) loribethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09272814565916935113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3354761566702250657.post-10398773890617121622021-06-11T21:03:16.894-07:002021-06-11T21:03:16.894-07:00My co-worker is thoughtful.

I love your response to your Dept Lead, and the way you both accepted it as a natural discussion. She may well have thought about it since, when she has snuggled her child. I hope so. I hope it has made her snuggles better, just as you are maybe more thankful for your restorative sleep.<br /><br />I've been sleeping well too, lately. Tonight I won't though. I've just checked the French Open schedule, and the games I want to watch start at about 1 am and 3.30 am! I'll sleep tomorrow.
