Shaun,

Sounds like "par for the course" when you are in business for yourself. I've had too many stretches like the one you describe over the years--especially when you're dealing with construction and other opening-related issues with new businesses.

I've got to say though that even though the price you pay for that many days and nights in a row is great; the feeling of satisfaction and accomplishment is usually well worth all the time, effort and loss of sleep.

We're in one of these cycles now--a second business open less than a year and a third in planning and permitting. Sleep? Nah.

Best of luck to you and cheers for being so committed to your work.
