This last week, I tried to move onto a different sleep schedule, with varying amounts of success.  Most days I was able to stay up about 10-12 hours, and was then able to sleep.  The problem still comes in when I try to get up.  Sometimes I was able to get up… sometimes not.

It is still the outside world that is giving me problems.  I have been feeling like I need to be up at certain times… at least I feel some internal pressure to.  That means I end up sleeping too long.  I did that just this last night.  I should have got up about 2am, but did not.

it will take a while to get it all to work out.  2 years ago it took me almost a month to finally get into the pattern.  So I will keep trying.  It is just very draining at times. 

I have given myself some small rewards for getting up some days – that has helped too.  So I still have plans, and am still working on it.  Wish me luck!
