I have been over extending my waking hours and I know how important sleep is. It's easier to wake up in the morning. Patience is easier with more sleep. Patience is a good word to pay attention to as a parent and a teacher. Sleep helps stamina for busy days ahead. One more week of school and then spring break, yea.
You've got the right idea - sleep!!! Good luck and best wishes for a bump-free week. (Our spring break is this week and I have 'caught up' on mine.)
ReplyDeleteI am all for the going to bed early part. I like your list...mine looks similar. Unfortunately, mine is missing "Get into the school bag and complete work." Hence, getting up early tomorrow will be important. :)
ReplyDeleteI am laughing because I got back today from a conference and between the different time zones and daylight savings, lost 4 hours of a day that started after not quite 3 hours of sleep. :)
ReplyDeleteThe good news is that I am now all about catching up on some sleep so I can gain some of those benefits you wrote about.
What a productive weekend you had! I thought I was doing well when I got lesson plans done, did some shopping, and blogged. Like you, I can't wait until next week when the biggest decision I will make each day is what book to read. :)
