Re: Pastor Rick
It's amazing how much more energy I have doing that, and how much more alert I am too. I do crosswords regularly, every day in fact. I find that since I've been getting more sleep, even these seem to be a lot easier.

Re: Pastor Rick
That's good - and you obviously then need the extra sleep then.
I guess I'm just lucky because I function well no matter how little sleep I have ... I find stress is more of a problem than lack of shut-eye.

Re: Pastor Rick
I become more stressed and agitated when I don't get enough sleep, but I also become stressed and agitated from not having enough time in the day to do everything I want and need to do. I look forward to the day when I can quit my 8-5 job and work on my own schedule, and still have time to enjoy life. For now, there's no rest for the wicked.

Re: Pastor Rick
You will make it happen Lesa because you're that kind of person with a go-ahead mindset!
Strange though how things sometimes work out because I looked forward to having more time to do my own stuff too and I'm busier than I ever was, but admittedly in a different way which is much, much better than holding down a normal job.
There never seem to be enough hours in a day!

Re: Pastor Rick
I know what you mean Petal.
I seem to be constantly downsizing. Whenever I think I've done one job, it usually creates three others.
We started clearing out old papers this week. Among them we found photos I want to scan, all my mother's old documents which I not sure whether I can destroy or not and a whole lot of other papers. So now I have to sort through all of them and scan whatever I need to keep before I can burn them.
More work.

I really hope so, Petal. Thank you for that faith booster.

Re:
I made some serious life-style decisions over the last 2-3 years to give myself more time for reading and just relaxation instead of going full tilt every day. Most of the time I am very happy I made those choices though I do miss the extra money in the bank sometimes.
