Yup…. It’s Friday and I’m still tired. I talk to my mom everyday on the phone and never end a phone call without saying ‘I’m tired today.’ My mother then tells me I tell her that everyday lol. But I really am!! I get little sleep each night and my schedule each day is jam packed. Midterms have started and I’ve been studying so much and constantly feel like I have 100 things to still do.
I’m a firm believer in sleep. I’ve never been that person that stays out until all hours and believes ‘you can sleep when you’re dead’ or ‘sleep is for the weak.’ Uh…. I’m a grumpy, unhappy, un productive person when I don’t get my sleep. I try to get to bed before 12 pm but that doesn’t always happen… and I’m up by 8am everyday. In an ideal world, (maybe post-college) I’m in bed by 9pm and asleep by 11pm and up every morning at 6:30am. I LOVE my mornings and days and would love to have the energy to wake up earlier and get even more done. But right now, that is just not happening.
This weekend, my mom and sister are in town!!!!!! I am so excited. I haven’t seen them since January 3rd and I can’t wait to show my sis around Lubbock some more (she will be here with me this fall!) and to have my mom to talk to in person, and give 100 hugs too. We have a fun weekend planned and they’re going to be here in a couple hours so I’m off to clean my wreck of a room and get ready!
How do y’all balance life and sleep?! Have a fabulous weekend!
