So I have been having some bouts with initial Psychophysiological insomnia. i am sure that this is compounded with a mild case of shift worker syndrome.

Also sometimes knowing about sleep can be overwhelming when you are trying to go to sleep. A sleep techs curse.
My windows are blackened, and my room is cooled by 2 fans and airconditioning.

Now this is my schedule for the week. Sunday sleep till noon. hang out with family play volleyball at 2-5pm. Work by 7pm. Work till 7-7:30am. I am usually home just in time for my wife to go to her 40 hour a week job. In the morning it is my wife's job to get the baby's things ready for the babysitter. it is my job to get her up, feed her, and have her at the babysitter by 9am. the baby and I usually eat together. After I drop her off i unwind until around 10 am and go to bed.

On Monday and Tuesday I try to sleep until 5pm. my wife get's home at 5:30 with the baby we eat I go to work. the mornings through Wednesday are the same as Sunday's. the difference is that on Wed. I only sleep 4-5 hours so that I can go to bed at a decent time and get up with the baby on thurs. and Fri. This saves us money. Family day on Sat. start the process over again on Sun.

this has been the norm. for me until recently I have been working an occasional Fri. Lately I am having trouble getting to sleep on my workdays. I am finding myself up at 12-1pm and having to get up by 5pm.

What do you think?

My schedule is as regular as it can be. The point of this post was to show that everyone has sleep problems at some point in their life. We spend 1/3 of our lives in bed. There is no such thing as a normal night of sleep. The best we can hope for is the selfishness of a good nights sleep. Even when you take all of the necessary steps to achieve this you may fail.
I envy your husband Cindy. For the most part i sleep well. Had a bad couple of weeks adjusting to the extra day. Seems to be back to normal though.
