Sleep 1

00:47 to 06:00

(5:12 hours)

Once again I went to bed slightly later than usual, but not much. I also got up to go to the toilet just after 2:00am, which is the first time I've done that for a long time.

This morning when I woke up I still felt quite tired, but instead of just going back to sleep I set an alarm for 6:00am on my tablet. At 6:00 I felt a little bit sleepy but not too bad and got up, and now I feel fine.

Sleep 2

16:35 to 18:30

(1:54 hours)

Today someone was due to come round at 7:00pm to give us a quote on a new window for our study, so I had to make sure I was up at 6:30pm. I always find that setting an alarm makes it harder to fall asleep, and today was no exception.

It took me a while to fall asleep, and I am sure that I woke up briefly in the middle of the nap. When the alarm went off I was sound asleep though, and the nap definitely did provide some refreshment.
