When I was in school or working, and later raising children with my husband out to sea, I usually grew more exhausted through the week and then made up the sleeping hours during the weekend. Even sometimes hiring childcare specifically so I could take a long nap in the middle of the day.
Camping at Pennsic is a drain on me because of this, since canvas or not, tents get too hot to sleep in during sunny days. Although it has gotten a bit easier with the aid of a good fan but usually by the time we have to pack out I am barely functioning. The first couple of days we are home I spend sleeping. And then I'm back to being awake through the nights while my husband is asleep.
We have a few overlapping hours each day that we spend with each other. Otherwise, we'd be total strangers.
