I Took a Nap Today / myLot

I took a nap this afternoon because we had t get up extra early to go to church for a meeting this morning before the regular service. I am SO not a morning person so by 3:00 pm I couldn't stay awake anymore. I laid down and slept from 3:00 pm until 5:30 pm. Now I only hope I can fall asleep quickly tonight but that was a pretty long nap. Are you a napper or can you usually get through your day without a nap?

I took a longer walked than planned, so when I got home I had a quick 30 minute kip.

@Kouponkaren I think so too. Don't have one everyday, though

@Ronrybs They say those short naps are the best for being able to just energize a person and then get a good night's sleep. So good for you.

@RebeccasFarm I used to nap almost every day but not much anymore. My husband has one every day and always wants e to nap when he does (he is in his recliner) but if I don't need one, I just stay awake.

I never take naps, I may rest in a dark room if I have a bad migraine.

@Kouponkaren I have less migraines now getting older, it was a serious problem when I was young.

@JudyEv Sometimes a nap feels so good. I used to nap a lot but now I try to get 7 - 8 hours of sleep a night, and I don't seem to need a nap very often anymore. But yesterday, I definitely needed a nap!

I never sleep in the day. I keep myself busy all day so that l will have a good night's sleep.

@Kandae11 That's probably a good idea. There is a lot of positive research about naps, but if I don't feel like I need one, I just keep on going through my day...like the Energizer Bunny, but maybe without quite as much energy.
