Day 2225. On Wednesday I had a student at 9 am after returning home from taking Sammy to school. As swimming class hasn't started yet, Wednesday is the one afternoon of the week with no class. And so I tried to schedule as many students as possible but only had two, from 3:30 to 5:30 pm.

Day 2221. Week 4 of school. On Monday I was able to lie back down after having returned from taking Sammy to school. I had only slept 3,5 hours the previous night so I really needed it, but those two hours didn't make up for the short night. I felt it all day. Still, I felt better and left the house an hour earlier than usual to go to the gym before picking up Sammy from school.

Day 2218. Last night I told the kids again how much I needed to sleep in this morning and pleaded with them to let me sleep but to no avail. Once again it was loud, and they came to me several times, no matter what I said and asked of them. I told them I'd go to a hotel next weekend to get one night's sleep.
