    На русском? Не точно уверена... моя проблема с словом "papers" и "catch up" главным образом.

    "I got some sleeping to catch up with" is slang. I wouldn't recommend using it, I was just providing a random example

    У меня записки заполнять
    У меня сон заполнять

    Take my translation to Russian with a grain of salt, not sure it's correct

    It's very funny translation into the Russian language ....and absolutely meaningless... Especially the second phrase May be someone can help with translation
    Could you correct my English, please.

    I think you could express the general idea with я давно не высыпаюсь (lit., "For a long time I haven't been getting a good night's sleep").

    Also, I think that "make up for" or "catch up on" can be translated, in many contexts, with навёрстывать/наверстать. As in нам надо наверстать пропущенные уроки, "we have to make up for the classes/lessons that were missed."

    Hmmm... Google turns up a number of hits for наверстать упущенный сон (i.e., not пропущенный). Does this sound okay to native speakers?
