A New Plan

mmerriamI've started getting out of bed at around four in the morning again. ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
careswen and I talked about how since we've lived in the townhouse, I've been trying to sleep the same hours she does, and how for the last year and a half I've been constantly tired, cranky too often, and not writing as much as I need to stay sane. So instead of tying to sleep the seven to nine hours careswen needs, I've gone back to sleeping four to five hours a night.
The difference in the last couple of weeks has been remarkable.
I'm more awake during the day, less likely to get upset or tense of stupid stuff, and I have an extra few hours for things like, well, writing.

Four-fifths of the word count happened in the last five days of the month. I can only hope this means my plan is starting to work.
