Festival of Sleep Day 2024
|
I think it all stems from my early start on the third shift when I began working after I dropped out of college. For years I engaged the eleven pm to seven am workaday world with Sargeant Hampton and the others of the Richland Emergency Room back in the early 1970s. Later I became engrained in the standard daytime work from my hitch in the Navy onward. Then I found myself teaching college for the next 20 years. Go figure.
Today is Festival of Sleep Day. It is a January 3 construct which aims in letting you catch up on that sleep surrendered to the seasonal events otherwise. It's origins appear in the industrial organization of industrialist Henry Ford in 1926 back when he tried to structure the day of workers as if he owned them.
Regardless, there is a lot to be said for a good nights sleep. Some of us engage in naps in addition to our nightly 8 hours.
I hope you're rested and raring to go each and every day.
Happy Festival of Sleep Day
