Human After All
One thing I don’t think I’ve mentioned yet here in the blog is my work schedule: I get up at 5 to go to work, and then I’m home by 3:30. At that point Kai and Maria are home, and then I watch Kai for the rest of the day so Maria can get in a couple more hours of work. So Maria and I both work full time, but Kai doesn’t have to spend the whole day at pre-school.
It’s working out well, but I’ve recently learned I’m human after all. Today is my 2-month anniversary at my new job, and over the past few days I’ve had a really hard time getting up in the morning. Previously I had been jumping out of bed, ready to go, usually right before the alarm went off. But no more – now the “bzzz bzzz bzzz’ of the alarm slowly rouses me from deep sleep. I guess the new schedule has finally made the transition from “novelty” to “routine” and now my body is fighting back. It’s hard making myself go to bed early enough so that I get enough sleep before getting up at 5!
