hibernation

My sister’s oldest girl came to stay with me last week, which was great!!  I love every opportunity to spend time with kids, especially my nieces and nephews! :)  I got to play teacher for the week, since my sister home-schools.  I had a blast with that too.

The only problem is, after just 4 school days I had to sleep 34 hours straight (straight!) to recover to a halfway normal state, then another 16 hours the next night, and I STILL almost fell asleep in my chinese food at lunch on Monday. 

Now granted, my sleep schedule was off before she got here, so I wasn’t getting as much sleep as usual during the week, and my arm had gone out again, so part of the sleep was still my body trying to recover from that, but still… I’d have to be crazy to ever think I could take care of a family.

I’ve got SO much work backed up right now, and I don’t even have a job!  I wonder how much I could actually get done if I could work like a normal person, without having to go into hibernation for 3 days after every 4 days of work.
