Sleeping

It's a good thing I've never needed much sleep, because I'm not getting much lately.  I'm still having to pee three times a night.  The way things work here, when I have to go I press the call button and wait.  The wait could be ten minutes, or twenty minutes, and during that wait I get wide awake.  So, after I go, it takes me a while to get back to sleep.  Doing that three times a night means I miss quite a bit of sleep per night.  I've taken to going to bed a bit earlier than normal and reading in bed less.

This is not a knock on the aides here; they are good about helping me, but this is a big place.  In my own place, my aide could get to me quickly, and hopefully I could get more sleep.
