Sleep Deficit

Regular readers will have noticed the complete lack of posts for the last week or two. Truth is, both DH and I are more than a little behind on our sleep, and circumstances keep conspiring to make sure we don't catch up. The one hour each way commute to the city for DH's work means we have to leave the house at 6:30am to get him to the train station on time, and he isn't home until after 5pm. Give a couple of hours for playing, dinner etc, and it's nearly 8pm by the time DD is in bed, giving DH and I very little time to relax and unwind before we should be in bed ourselves. In order to catch up on some sleep, we really need to be in bed by 9pm, but somehow that seems impossible (as you will note from the 9:30 time on this post). We've tried not even turning the computers on, but then we sit and talk for an hour! All good stuff, but not helping with the sleep, thus making the extra time for blog posts right now just isn't happening. Hopefully we'll catch up a little soon (or give up trying!), and I'll have some more time for posting.
