Most days I do work hard but I do not have to be up at 6 am, being a landlady never calls for work at 6 am. Running Sunshine`s homestead creations does not require me to be up and about at 6 am.
However, the caregiver job does.
Tony fell asleep last night around 9 pm and woke at 12:30 as I was going to bed, I did not fall asleep right away and laid in bed reading, this is what I do all the time. Off and on all night I did hear him, making something to eat or popping the soda can lid open. OR coughing and coughing.
He should not sit and cough. He has plenty of meds for that, from store bought cough syrup to homemade cough syrup to prescription "pearls" that really is a tiny amounts of liquid in gel caplets.
I was awaken for the last time, 6 am and I got up. I reached over to get the bottle of meds that sits in front of him, he said " I just took that."
Now, 30 minutes later and 1/2 cup of coffee, the house is quiet and he is asleep.
When he wakes around noon I will have to ask why he had not taken the prescription medication before he woke me coughing 5,000 times.
No I will not stay up, I will go back to bed, and I will sleep till noon also.
And people tell me I keep strange hours.

Hope you get more sleep. I was able to sleep until around 9. Cloudy days are great for that.

You sleep when you can. If I did not have a time clock type job I would do the same.

All I can do is shake my head that Tony didn't take his medication and would rather cough and cough and cough.Hope your day went well after going back to bed.
