I personally like to plop my butt on the patio chair and read. Sometimes I set the book down and just look around. And that's okay. No music, no nothing. Just listen to the birds,etc. Admittedly I do not have children around clamoring for stuff. I can be very selfish and just do what I want. But it is good to rest and it will make you a better person when you have to wind back up for life.

We who push the limits, must suffer the consequences, the catastrophic melt down that comes from a traumatic childhood takes years and years to recover from. Sleep deprivation is a torture technique for a reason, it is traumatic. <br />I wish you the best, thanks for visiting my blog and Good luck to you.
