Sleep 1

00:24 to 06:00

(5:35 hours)

Yesterday Bob and Steph spent the day with us and we played lots of games and barbecued lots of meat. We went to bed just after midnight.

I set my alarm an hour later to 6:00am and fell asleep quickly. This morning I woke up at 5:15am, but then I went back to sleep until my alarm went off. I feel like I could have slept longer.

Sleep 2

15:34 to 16:34

(1:00 hours)

Bob and Steph were round today, so I waited for everyone to get up and made some cooked breakfast. After that we chatted for a while, then went outside and I did a bit of gardening while they played a couple of games.

After that we chatted and I had a couple of beers and then they left to go home.

I was a little bit drowsy so I laid on a picnic blanket in the shade for 20 minutes but I didn't sleep. After that I came in doors and fell asleep on the sofa for an hour.

Sleep 3

23:59 to 05:21

(5:21 hours)

Last night I didn't set an alarm as I want to stop relying on the alarm to wake me up! I've written a full blog post about this which you can read by clicking "My Sleep Blog" from the menu at the top of the page, or by clicking this link: http://www.fig14.com/blog/?p=838.

I woke up naturally at 5:15am, but then I let myself go back to sleep for a few minutes and woke up less that 10 minutes later and got up. I think I dreamt in the night but I don't remember the dream now.
