Since we got here I've been tired. Exhausted really. I assumed this was normal for the pace we've been pushing. Everyday is another long list of things to figure out. And all the uncertainty until things settle is tough too and of course would add to the exhaustion. Not to mention sleeping on the air mattress!
But last night, in the middle of the night, I came to a realization. I'm not sleeping well and it has nothing (OK, almost nothing) to do with stress. Its the light. I'm not used to living in a city with light pollution. It doesn't really get dark. And our room has a big, beautiful solarium in it. There are curtains between the main room and the solarium but they are white and don't really help.
I may need to dig out one of the sleep masks we bought for the flight until I figure out a more permanent solution!
