I was back late after what turned out to be a sixteen hour work day on Friday and I finally made it to sleep at two o’clock in the morning. Then my alarm went off at four o’clock in the morning. I did something very risky. I pressed SNOOZE!
An hour later my phone was ringing and ringing. My friends were outside in their car. Very kindly they waited ten minutes while I showered and threw some clothes on.
I am working all day as a volunteer. But with so little sleep…I think it is going to be a very long day. Where is the canteen? I need a coffee pleeeeeeeeeease!
I am just going to take it slowly and try not to cause any injury to myself of anyone else!

I was very glad that when I saw the site manager and explained how little sleep I had had, he arranged for me to do some accounts/purchasing work in the site office instead of being on construction yesterday.

You should not take up more work than it is physically possible for you. Remember to look after yourself first.

My Friday is always a long day…but it became a bit of a nightmare last week Sadje. I am hoping to make some changes so that I don;t have such a long work day soon.

I felt really awful on Saturday…I slept a long time of Saturday night!
Thankfully, I ended up working n the site office so I did stay away from the more hazardous areas of the site.

I have to admit, I find Fridays really difficult. But I am thinking of changing that soon.

I do need to…starting from Wednesday, I have a very intense schedule for eleven days – very long days. I have scheduled a post to be published for each of those days already because I think I am going to be absolutely jiggered!!
And I want to start my packing…I am so tempted to start this evening. Hmm…we will see.
