If I don't go to sleep before midnight (which happens never), I get a second wind and am up for a couple more hours no matter how tired I am.
Olive has been sleeping through the night for the past week, and I'm getting less sleep than ever because I'm staying up so late!
Do you suffer from second wind syndrome?

Ugh yes! At 6pm I could barely keep my eyes open. Then I gave the kids a bath, nursed LO to sleep, called 2 clients, and now at 11:30 I'm up here on the bee. Grrr!

Yes 
But for me the time has changed over the years. It used to be 11:00, but years ago it was more like 2:00 am. Now since DD's schedule is messed up again, it's anytime I postpone sleeping when I first get tired. If I don't sleep right then and there, I'll be up for hours no matter how sleepy I am.

Yep. I'm exhausted by 4 pm and all I want to do is sleep. By the time I get home at 6:30, cook and/or eat dinner, stay up another hour to test blood sugar, eat my stupid evening snack at 9, then get ready for bed, I've gained wind and lie in bed in the dark for two hours playing bejewled and browsing Hellobee. Wash, rinse, repeat. Sigh.

Yep, decided the house was too dirty since people are coming over so taking advantage of everyone sleeping.

Yes, it is when I get the most work done! I love it and keep going until my back starts to ache, that is when I know I am too tired and can fall right asleep.
