I try to be but then it is quite hard to do this when you have work. Although there are times that I take some small naps in between if there is an opportunity.

I often wish I could. I have suggested that we have cushions and a sensory room in the office where we can take ten minutes to nap! I'm often tired by the afternoon but don't get the opportunity for a nap. Even when I do get the chance, I find it difficult to sleep during the day. That's getting easier as I get older, though. There are times I'm so tired that I've fallen asleep on the bus on the way home (and sometimes even on the way to work in the morning).

@Janet357 Nope. It usually takes a while for me to fall asleep, no matter how tired I am. Then sometimes I'm woken by my alarm but, more often than not, by my bladder!

Sometimes I will take naps in the afternoon. More often than not I won't, but sometimes, I really do need a nap, and will have one.

taking a nap refreshes us, or brings back the lost energy.

I did take a regular nap for 45 minutes in late afternoon for almost two decades. But now I don't get time for it. But on days I can manage, I do take it. On weekends, I do take a longer nap of almost two hours.
