I have insomnia and today I had a rare day off AND my body went “nup, I'm sleeping.”
So I had a rare day of 13hrs of sleep. But what I wanted to do today didn't happen.
Don't get me wrong, I am grateful for getting a day off and getting a chance to sleep, but if half of your days off are taken up by simply recuperating, then it's not nearly enough time off.
I have a wonderful job who looks after me, so I'm not complaining about that, it's just it's so weird that we are expected to work 5/7th of our week. Why is that normal?
