A few weeks ago I started to realize that I have been unable to focus. I mentioned it to my coworkers, and they said "you're burnt out". They know about what's happened with my house and everything.

This week, I think I'm approaching 100% burnt out. I really can't focus on anything at all. I think I need a vacation. Every day I work, then I go home and work until I go to bed.

Christmas has the remainder of my vacation days this year. I'll be spending Christmas with family. It will be great, but will I be able to recharge?

What do I need? How can I help this?

I don't know. I think if I just push a little more; just another month or so, to the point where all our junk is in our house, then I will begin to be able to find some spare time. A lot of my daily after-work effort goes to unpacking our storage unit. Fill up the car, empty the car, find a place in our house for the stuff I just got.

Right now, the baby's bed time is 10pm, which is crazy, because there's a list of stuff we have to do each night after he goes to bed (such as cleaning bottles and preparing ourselves for bed). I want to roll that back to 9pm. I don't know what's better: immediately pushing it back to 9pm, or waiting until we stabilize and then slowly walking it back. Probably the latter.
