Bedtime Habits

What are your bedtime sort of rituals? Me I cannot go to sleep without taking a quick shower, putting on cologne and body moisturizer. Then of course put on my favorite pajamas. It's so nice to feel so clean and fresh in bed, so conducive to a good sleep.

I'll put my son to bed and read a little before I get a quick nap before my bf comes home. When he get's home I'll heat up his plate and we'll talk while he eats. Then we get a shower, I'll wash my face, put on some lotion and then we'll go to bed a few hours later

Here in India, most people shower early morning. I'm different, I prefer having a shower last thing at night. You feel so clean when you get into bed. After a shower, I spend sometime on the net, and then when I'm a little sleepy, I thank God for another day.

After my shower each night I get online for a few hours. Then I like to watch a little tv, something funny for about 30 minutes. I put lotion on my face, read a chapter in my Bible, then lights out.

I have to jump over all the stuff in my room and into the bed. I'll wear anything except for jeans basically. Then I like to make sure the blankets are straightened out a little bit (okay, I just like to make sure they sort of cover me, who am I kidding on actually making the bed). After that, I'll usually put the TV on sleep mode so that I'll go to sleep watching TV. Sometimes I'll read instead, but generally only if it's something important like for school, and not more than 15 minutes usually.

I usually take bath before sleeping, complete my exercise as I joined body building club a while back : I regularly drink a glass of milk and almost six banana's as I am recommended by my bodybuilding sir. Apart from this I use internet just for five minutes to check my my Lot updation I really can't sleep before watching it :p I brush my teeth before sleeping, I wear my night dress before sleeping. I oftenly fall into depth slumber while watching television. Last but not the least I put an alarm on phone at put my phone just under my pillow so I manage to wake up when ever I planned to get up! These are my some bedtime habits. Have a very good day! Happy earnings!

I don't have any specific rituals .. But I would mainly wait until I feel really sleepy .. maybe around 2-3am .. then throw my clothes off .. whip on pj's or a nightie and leap into bed .. I always read for a while so I can settle down in bed properly before turning off the light .. But prior to this I will have had a last drink (usually around 11pm) .. next visit to the bathroom I cleanse and moisturise my face .. brush my hair, clean my teeth etc .. so that when I do feel tired I don't wake myself back up again doing all these things .. heheh !! I wish I could shower last thing at night but it wakes me up too much .. and I have enough problems trying to sleep without actively making it harder ..

If you have a nice home, you can have a shower 2 or 3 times a day. Without leaving any unfinished job outside you backyard is okey to have a Bath before sleep.

LOL. To tell you the truth I have been so tired latley I could just jump into bed clothed and all and go to sleep. LOL. But usually I take a shower and put on some deoderant and put some cleaner on my face. Thats about it. I dont do the whole colonge/body moisture thing, usually I dont have time but it does feel nice to have some kind of smelly lotion on. I usually throw some Bath and Body works Lotion on!
