is it 7am yet?


work is dragging right now.
(-.-)zzzZZZZz

if you work overnight or use to work overnight then im sure you know where im coming from. if you havent, you honestly wont know until youve worked the shift. some people might say "oh please i can do that". but its easier said than done.

ive been working the overnight shift for 2 and half years now. crrrazy. imagine... getting off at 7:30am-- sleeping--waking up when aleyna wakes up at 10:30am--take a nap at 5pm with aleyna--then wake up two hours later when aleyna wakes up... almost 5 days a week for two and half years? thats pretty much 3hr and 2hr naps... no sleep. coworkers always tell me "mahra. i dont know how you do it" because i was the only working mom during our shift. i think i just got immune to the sleep deprivation. it sucks... But you gotta do what you gotta do.

good news is...
im about to start working day shifts.
its about time!
i can finally sleep during normal hours.
i can finally spend time with aleyna with the right energy.

no more making aleyna nap when i nap.
no more worrying if i'll fall asleep on the road.
no more "MUST HAVE COFFEE" moments.

ive been patiently waiting for this, and now that its coming up... i cant wait.

to anybody thats looking into working the graveyard shift. i dont recommend it. but if its your only option, then i guess you have to. it'll be a good experience. but dont do it for too long... it might eat you up.
