Now I've gone and done it. Between the stress of traveling and the stress of coming home to a place I'm not wanted, my sleep schedule has been way off. Right when I had planned to go to bed at 11 PM, I find I am wide awake. So I stayed up till 3 AM in a chatroom, and about that time I realize my throat is getting sore. I woke up this morning with a full blown cold. I know lack of sleep compromises my immune system. I know better.

    Purple, sleep is something we all need enough off. Do not cut corners there. Researches have proven that the less sleep you have the lower your immune system gets. Of course you know that already. Now you know just how you got the cold, you practically left the doors wide opened for those buggers to come in!

    Sleep well and wake up with your batteries fully charged.

    Take care,
    GM

    It truth, I haven't slept well in over a week. That includes 3 nights on my daughters couch after 2 AM (she gets off work at 1 AM plus the commute), then trying to sleep at home in 100 degree weather, then being congested from crying, etc. etc. And now my days and nights are reversed. It's not like I don't want to sleep.

I lost myself.

I lost respect towards a person.

I lost valuable time towards another.

Great, can things get even worse?...

My father told me to not make mountains out of molehills.

I'm stressed over little things that are building up because I'm putting them off.

Needing a second, and maybe third job.
