The lack of sleep is getting to me, and I just don’t have it in me today. I’m going to have to do extra work tomorrow and/or Friday or work a day over the weekend. I’ll make it work though. I really don’t want to take a day off but I’m exhausted. :( And sometimes, working from home (and freelancing) means switching around your days, within reason (i.e., deadlines, payments, etc.). I do have a payment coming tomorrow (from Textbroker), and that’ll take care of an important expense for this week. I meant to post on Medium and update my NKOTB fan blog, but neither of those things are happening tonight. There’s always tomorrow! I wrote all my MyLot posts out at once, and they didn’t require much thinking since I was just rambling about my day and how I’m feeling right now. I’m going to apply for this casting call on WriterAccess, eat dinner and then relax for the night. I would like to lie down earlier tonight. You all have a good night/morning, stay safe, and take care. Photo Credit: Pixabay.

Thank you! I think I woke up every few hours, but I still slept more and deeper than the night before.

@RubyHawk I think it would. I would love to sleep for more than 2-3 hours at a time. It's not the only sleep I get (unless it's a rough night), it's just how long I sleep before waking up for a bit.

@tammys85 Maybe it's enough sleep to make you feel better.

I've had those days. Take care and do what you can. In this case an early night.

@tammys85 I'm glad the early night helped. I was in bed early last night too.

@just4him Thanks! I was up earlier than usual today (by choice), so I'll probably go to bed in a few hours.

Don’t overdo it. If your body is telling you that you need rest, then listen to it. I know firsthand the consequences of ignoring my body’s needs.

I won't and didn't. I wound up just relaxing earlier that night. It doesn't help with my productivity, but neither would losing clients or getting demoted because I worked on orders while unable to focus, so I had no choice but to listen to my body. Thank you so much.
