Time to Breathe

Dear Friends and Family,

Where does time go? Well, if you look at a typical mouse weekday:
  • sleep: 5 hours
  • coffee, blog, morning time: 1 hour
  • feed P: 0.5 hours
  • shower, personal prep time: 0.5 hours
  • morning bag shuffle: 15 minutes
  • commute: 1 hour
  • daycare drop off: 15 minutes
  • work: 10 hours
  • day care pick up: 30 minutes
  • commute: 1.5 hours
  • feed P: 0.5 hours
  • down time, play time, dinner, Mr. mouse time: 1 hour
  • nap: 1.5 hours
  • pump: 0.5 hours
And, there goes the day. 2 precious hours of free time for 22 hours of stuff. Wow, no wonder I feel so time crunched. In a couple of months I get back the 30 minutes of pump time and can sleep 7 hours in a row which will be heavenly. Or, I can get an hour and half down time at night before going to sleep which would be a 50% increase. Yeah for mouse!


Cheers!
mouse

oh dear god, i can't have kids. somehow the idea of surviving on 5 hours of sleep makes me want to cry just a little bit. here's hoping the whole schedule improves in year 2! xoxoxo
