Today I felt very tired at about 2:00pm, but we had to carry on and finish the wall we were tiling in the bathroom. At about 4:00pm the adhesive Yu Lee had put on the wall was too dry to work with any more, so we scraped it off and stopped there for the day.

When I got in bed I felt tired, and I think I fell asleep briefly after about 10 minutes, but then I noticed myself dribbling and woke up and couldn't sleep until at least 5:00pm.

In total I think I actually slept for something like 2 hours, and afterwards I laid in bed for 30 minutes. It was nice to have another lay in but a bit of a waste of time. I feel good now though...

As my nap didn't really happen yesterday, I ended up going to be quite early last night. It's not often that I'm asleep before 11:00!

I fell asleep pretty much straight away and slept solidly through until 5:30 this morning. After the alarm I dozed for a bit, and I laid in bed awake for 30 minutes after recording the end time of this sleep. Hopefully I will be able to nap today!

I didn't really sleep at all for this, although I may have drifted off for a few minutes here and there.

I felt a little tired at work today, especially in the morning, and as I was walking home I thought I would probably sleep well for my nap. When I laid down I felt less tired, and next door were banging about for pretty much the entire time.

When Yu Lee came home at 5:20 I opened the door and marked my sleep as 'failed'. I chatted to Yu Lee for a while until her leg went numb from kneeling on the floor, and then I got up.

This was a bit frustrating, but I do feel that laying down had some benefit. I think I will be to bed early tonight though.

Last night when I went to bed, I remember saying to Yu Lee that I didn't really feel tired. I think I fell asleep about 2 minutes later so I must have been!

This morning I just about managed to get up at 5:30am with the alarm. I actually laid in bed for 10 minutes afterwards, and came very close to falling back to sleep, but I did get up in the end.

Now I feel quite tired. I am not used to sleeping like this any more. Hopefully once the sun comes up I will start to wake up a bit more.

When I came home today, Yu Lee said she felt sick and had been feeling ill for a few hours. We both went to sleep, and when she woke up she said she felt fine. That just goes to show that naps must be good for you!

I fell asleep in a few minutes and woke up feeling refreshed.

Last night I went to bed just after midnight. I didn't feel super tired, but I knew I would sleep as I didn't have a very good nap yesterday.

This morning when my alarm went off I could have probably got up, but instead I set the alarm on my tablet to go off after 15 minutes and got up then. It's nice to get up early again as I have a nice chunk of time before work.

Yu Lee had the day off work today and stayed at home tiling the bathroom. When I got in she was still doing it, and wouldn't even let me use the toilet!

Despite the fact that I needed a poo, and that Yu Lee was banging about in the next room, I did manage to get some sleep, but nowhere near enough. I fell asleep at least 3 times, but woke up again when she cut a tile as it made some noise.

Still, at least I don't have to endure the horrors of tiling it myself!

Yesterday, after dinner I spent a good few hours doing work on my bathroom. One of the jobs I had to do was to screw the bath into the wall using 2 metal brackets underneath the bath. This involved laying on my side with my head between the toilet and the bath, and reaching in between all of the pipes with a screw driver and screwing in a very tough screw. It was very tiring, and took me half an hour to get it all of the way in!

When I went to bed at 12:30am, I fell asleep straight away. I must have been very tired because I ended up sleeping in until 7:00am!

When I woke up I still felt tired and had a minor headache, like I normally get after a long lay in.

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.

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.

I was feeling pretty tired on my walk home from work today, and when I got home I was ready for sleep! I ended up getting into my bed a little later than usual, and I think it took about 15 minutes to fall asleep.

For some reason, when I'm really tired it often takes me longer to fall asleep.

After my nap I felt sleepy and didn't want to get up. I woke up naturally and laid in bed for a few minutes. It feels like a luxury to have a lie in after work!

I could have easily gone to bed just after midnight, but in the end I got distracted end ended up staying up until 1:00.

This morning I was tired, and I turned the alarm off and slept until 6:30.

Today we did more work on our bathroom, and then went to B&Q as they had 20% off of everything this weekend. We got back just after 4:00pm and I was glad to get into my bed!

Yu Lee said she wasn't tired and didn't think she could sleep, but she was asleep within minutes and I fell asleep shortly afterwards. I set an alarm but woke up naturally after 2 hours.

I really needed that one!

Yesterday I went to bed at 12:30, which I am thinking of using as my new bedtime. It did take me a little while to fall asleep, but it was not at all frustrating. I think I opened my eyes and looked at the clock after 1:00am but it didn't feel like I was laying there for half an hour so I was probably drifting in and out already by that time.

This morning I first woke up at at 5:05am, which was about 4,5 hours after going to bed. I probably should have got up, but instead I went back to sleep and then dozed for 30 minutes after my alarm this morning.

As I have said before, I really need to re-learn how to get up when the alarm goes off! I felt like I had slightly too much sleep this morning, and I would like to start getting up early again.

I was doing a lot of work on my bathroom today. I (half) changed the toilet, took out the bath, adjusted some leaking compression fittings and refitted it, and replaced most of the floor.

I was pretty tired from about 3:30pm, but I wanted to get the toilet working so we pushed on. When I finally went to bed at 6:45 I set an alarm for 1:45 hours, but I know it took me at least half an hour to get to sleep as I am not used to sleeping at this time.

When I woke up, I had an epic battle with Yu Lee trying to get her out of bed, which lasted 25 minutes. Grrrrr.

I remember very clearly waking up at 4:30am and looking at the clock, and deciding to go back to bed. This would be the 4.5 hours point which is when I normally get up if I go to bed at 1:00am.

I woke up from the alarm at 5:30, and dozed for a while. I originally ended the sleep at about 5:45, but I actually fell back to sleep again and changed it when I finally woke up.

When I returned to my bed I fell straight asleep! I woke up at about 6:45, and literally 1 minute after I woke up Yu Lee came in to wake me.

I felt refreshed afterwards, but I must admit it took me 10 minutes to actually drag myself out of bed.

I laid down to sleep but it didn't feel right. Maybe it's because this was the first day without Yu Lee for a while.

I actually felt quite tired, but not sleepy, so I decided to get up for a few minutes.

After waking up so quickly from my nap yesterday, I thought I had caught up on my sleep and that it would be easier to get up today, but once again I went straight back to sleep after the alarm and woke up at 6:05.

Now I still feel quite tired. When I woke up I also felt like I'd had too much sleep. Hopefully I can ge back into getting up wen the alarm goes off, as I love having the extra time in the mornings.

I must admit, after all of the sleep I had last night and the previous nap, I really didn't expect to sleep much for this one!

It definitely took me a little longer to fall asleep this time, as I didn't really feel tired, but I think I was still asleep within 15 minutes which isn't bad.

When I first woke up I looked at the clock on Yu Lee's side table, and it was partially obscured and for some reason I thought it said 16:45. I was a bit disappointed as this would have meant that I had slept for about 10 minutes which is never good. For some reason I looked a second time, and realised that it was actually saying 5:45 which was a lot better.

I feel really good after that nap - very well rested. Hopefully tonight I will not need to sleep for so long.
