Last night at about 11:00pm I came over very tired. The 20 minute power naps that I had yesterday did get rid of some of the tiredness, but the effects were not long lasting like my normal naps.

This morning I first woke up at 5:30am as usual, but I ended up drifting in and out of sleep for about 15 minutes. Maybe I should try sitting straight up when the alarm goes off to avoid this.

When the weather was warmer it was much easier to just jump out of bed, but now that it's cold it is way too tempting to lay there for a while.

I didn't have a proper nap today because I was waiting to take delivery of a parcel (which never turned up), so by 6:00pm I was starting to feel pretty tired. I went to bed and did manage to fall asleep but only briefly.

I got up after about half an hour, and I felt surprisingly refreshed considering I must have only had about 20 minutes sleep.

Today I was working from home and I had nothing better to do on my lunch break so I thought I would go for a sneaky little nap. I woke up after about 15 minutes which was a bit disappointing but better than nothing. Let's see how this affects the rest of the day.

I went to bed a little early last night to try and catch up on some sleep from my missing nap the other day. When I woke up this morning I felt quite sleepy and the sleepy feeling has lasted a while.

Today I felt fine all day at work until about 2:00pm when I felt really tired. I had a meeting, and I literally felt like I could have drifted off to sleep right there: My eye lids felt really heavy and kept going out of focus and I was struggling to stay focused.

All of a sudden, at about 2:45 I suddenly got over it and felt much more awake.

I originally went to bed at 4:20pm, and reset the timer twice before falling asleep. The last time I reset the timer, I remember laying down and thinking "This is it - if I don't fall asleep in a few minutes I am giving up".

When the alarm went off I wasn't sure if I had fallen asleep or not until I realised that it was 6:30 and an hour and a half had passed. This felt like a short nap, especially considering it took me 40 minutes to fall asleep.

I was quite tired again last night but I waited until 1:00am to go to sleep. It wasn't uncomfortable, but I felt like I had a bit of sleep to catch up on.

This morning I must have drifted off to sleep for 10 minutes after the alarm, and I felt quite sleepy when I woke up but I was fine after that.

Today I would say I felt less tired in the afternoon than I did yesterday, but as 4:00 came around I started to really feel like I needed to take my nap.

When I got in from work I went straight to bed and fell asleep within minutes. I think I woke up 5 minutes before my alarm at 5:55 and looked at the clock, and decided to continue sleeping until it went off.

I felt refreshed after my nap with no grogginess.

I fell asleep again without even realising it and woke up 10 minutes later.

I was very tired last night as I missed my nap yesterday, but I still waited until just before 1:00 to go to bed.

When I got into my bed I fell asleep straight away, and this morning when I woke up I could have easily slept for another couple of hours.

I was quite tired today at work from about 12:30 - 3:30, but just as home time came around I started to wake up. When I finally got home I tried to sleep but couldn't.

:-(

Yesterday for some reason I actually felt tired all day, and in the end I went to bed at 12:20am and fell asleep pretty much straight away.

This morning I woke up from a dream when the alarm went off, and managed to jump out of bed and into the shower within 5 minutes.

We got back from Yu Lee's Mum's house at about 1:00pm, and went for our nap soon afterwards. It was a bit earlier than usual, but for some reason I felt really tired.

I had a good nap and I could remember some fragments of dreams upon awakening. I slept right through to the alarm and felt like I could have slept much longer. I felt a bit groggy afterwards.

Last night we went out for dinner with Yu Lee's Dad, and I think I probably ate a bit too much.

We went to bed around 1:15am, but I think it was probably 1:30am by the time I was actually in bed. If I was at home I would probably have reset the timer, and I would have clicked it off a little earlier this morning so the times are not as accurate as usual.

The other interesting thing about this sleep is that the clocks moved back during the night. This means that my sleep looks shorter on the graph than it actually was.

Today we went to Yu Lee's Mum's house, and I had my nap their before going out for dinner with Yu Lee's Dad. The wifi reception in the room where we slept was really poor, so it was difficult to get an accurate time.

In the end, I am sure I was still awake at 4:45 although I may have dozed for a few minutes before that point. I moved the alarm back from 6:00 to 6:20 and put in my ear plugs and fell asleep pretty soon afterwards.

When I woke up at 6:20 I felt like I could have slept for quite a while longer! It was a refreshing nap once I'd finally got to sleep.

When I came back to bed 15 minutes later I fell asleep within 10 minutes of laying down, and woke from a nice deep sleep when the alarm went off at 6:30pm.

After I woke up Yu Lee came in and jumped on the bed and tried to convince me to get up and make dinner. It took me ages to get out of bed though because it was really cold!

I got in from work a little bit earlier than usual, and came straight to bed for my nap. I laid there for a while, but really didn't feel like sleeping, so I got up for a while...

This morning I was very tired, and I'm not really sure why as I have had quite a lot of sleep this week.

My alarm went off at 5:30 like always, and somehow I managed to turn it off and go straight back to sleep. I woke up 20 minutes later from a dream. I'm not really sure how it happened, because I literally must have fallen straight to sleep after turning off the alarm.

This was quite a frustrating nap. When I got in from work I was pretty tired, so I went to bed at about 4:30 and fell asleep instantly. The problem is that the school out the back of my house was obviously having some kind of event, and everyone came out very loudly which woke me up. When I looked at the clock only 8 minutes had passed since I laid down, so I'm guessing I was only asleep for 2 or 3 minutes.

As it was noisy I decided to put my ear plugs in and reset the timer. I also changed the alarm time from 6:30 to 7:00.

When I had finally nodded off again, it must have been about 5:30 because I woke up very soon afterwards when my girlfriend came home. I didn't bother restarting the timer this time as I think I had been dozing for about 10 - 15 minutes, but again it took me a while to fall asleep, I would guess about 15 more minutes.

Eventually I did get some undisturbed sleep until Yu Lee came in at about 2 minutes to 7, asking if I was going to get up and make dinner! I didn't mind though and I felt like I had woken from a nice sleep.

Overall I laid in bed for 2.5 hours but I think I only really slept for 1.5 hours of it.

I managed to get up at the correct time for the second day in a row. I did feel quite tired though and I could have easily slept for longer.
