Any natural remedys to keep you going through the busy time as i need rest but to much to do until cows go out sleep would be the most important 1 but have to keep going
Its not possible. As they say you cant burn a candle at both ends. Get a college student to help or get a weekend farm hand Not sure why you have to keep going?
In a word..... No. There is no substitute for sleep. I've been in the same position for the last 6 weeks and naps got me through. It didn't matter what I was doing, if I felt I had hit a wall I'd make sure I was safe, shut my eyes and sleep for 20-30 minutes. It was not safe to try to go on without it. I did this in the tractor with my head on the steering wheel, lying on the quad bike[ got a very stiff neck waking with my head on the rear rack] and lying in various corners of sheds/ fields. You soon make the time up working quicker when your head is clearer and you're not walking around like a zombie.
After just getting back on my feet after a short illness that hit me hard and very suddenly I’ve realised I’ve made a huge mistake. All the machines, and all the work in the world to do with them means absolutely nothing. Life first. Everything else second.
