Freybynite


I took over my Dad's email address when he died. They called him Freybynite (Frey is our last name)and he worked the night shift, hence Frey by night. Funny! Anyway, I am officially Freybynite, and can I say that IT SUCKS! I have been working some nights until 3 am and I have never felt so sick. I am having to get hours in like this for the summer because of Ron's new position. I can no longer go into work at 4pm until 11pm because we don't do child care and his hours are unpredictable I guess. So, I have been doing some 7pm to 3am's. I get home about 3:30 and to bed, the baby gets up for feedings still and then the others are up early. The other night, I slept from 4am - 6am and then the baby puked, got her back to sleep and slept from 7am-9am because Ron told the older kids to let me sleep. They hung out in their rooms until I emerged with Jillybean who finally woke me up at 9. What is going on in your body that lack of sleep makes you feel like your head is going to explode? I walk around like a zombie all day, going through the motions, head pounding, dizzy and nauseous. I am irritable by the time Ron comes home and ready for shift change, and can't even THINK of making a dinner! On top of that I am having to do this on the weekend, and I have to schedule it two days in a row. So, I stay up all day, Ron comes home, dinner, and I leave at 6pm to work until 3am again. Not pretty. I dread this whole summer because, while I would like to relax and spend time with the kids in the pool, playing, etc., I will be at work or dead tired!
