I have had winston for about 4 weeks. I thought by now that he would be able to sleep longer in his crate than an hour before having to go potty. He wakes me up constantly and when I wake up on my own I take him out too. This totals about 5 times a night (not to mention just whining for fun in the crate). He also pees in his crate and it freaks me out.

The main problem is that I am a teacher and school is starting monday. How in the world am I supposed to get my sleep?!? I must have 8 hours or I feel like crap. I was considering a play pen in the back room with a spot for tee tee pads in a corner. My boyfriend thinks it is stupid, but sometimes, I think he is stupid too.

Also, Im quitting smoking (4 days now) and am very cranky! Please give me some advice on how to get some sleep!
