The last week in Aug. I am done with daycare. If (and thats a big IF) I ever do this again...I will only do 8am-5:30pm. Never again will I do 6am-4:30pm...NEVER. I am not a morning person to begin with, especially during the summer. I am a night owl, and do not like having a bed time. I have found that having a bed time has caused me to have less sleep because I'm constantly worried about 1) falling asleep to begin with and 2) not hearing the alarm clock and blowing off my clients.

I started in January, and I bet I have averaged 4 hours of sleep during the week days. I try to make up for it on weekends, but that cuts into my family time =/

8am-5:30pm seem like very reasonable hours to me.
