In addition to cold showers and better cardiovascular fitness, I plan to be in bed between 9 and 11 at night and be up by 7 a.m.
I’ve just been so tired during the day lately…I finally wake up fully by the time the sun goes down, but the fatigue is making it hard to achieve a lot of other personal goals that are only viable during daylight hours.
I plan to use a very small dose of Benadryl to get myself to bed early and then drag myself out of bed at the sound of my alarm. I honestly don’t know how else to go about it. Then once I’ve adjusted to the new schedule everything should be clear sailing. I hope…

to I’ve done this!!!!
My very cool new Manager shifted me to Dayshift without me having to work a night! Bless her heart! I have not been on days in 6 months, but I recall how nice it was to be in sync with the world. So, benefits to come from this soon, I am sure!
Yay for being awake in the day!

But I’m not sure if I am working 40-60 hours a week for the next couple of months night shift that I can actually get my circadian rhythm back on track, since I am not really even trying and my livlihood depends on me being up in the night.
So, I do give up…..

Due to the contract screw up, I’ll be back on nights, but oh well, I guess it’s meant to be for a while. Bleech. Still at least its three straight each week, and then whee the rest of the week off. I like being a nurse.

I want to be asleep, but I am wide awake, curses to the night shift job and my inability to adjust. By next week, at this time, I should be fast asleep.

get enough sleep. Seem to be stuck on night shift, and probably will for the next contract and the next one until I decide to stop traveling and get a permanent job….
So here it is, I worked ALL night last night and I am still wide awake at 10:00 am. Guess I did not work hard enough.
