I Needed a Nap

With only four and a half hours of sleep last night, I needed a nap. I got a power nap. Not quite an hour and it feels like I had a full night's sleep. Now, it feels like I can make it through the rest of the day. My sleep was interrupted at 12:30 AM with multiple booms, almost like gunshots, but different. It happened several times with multiple booms each time. It was enough to wake me and keep me awake. With being wide awake through church this morning, I thought maybe I wouldn't need a nap until I sat here and felt my eyelids begin to droop. Now, I'm back and ready to finish the notifications, hopefully without errors. Have you gotten your sleep interrupted and found a nap necessary? Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me.

Thank you. One of these days I'll figure out how to do a webcam selfie. That's with my trusty camera after my haircut on Friday.

I had my sleep interrupted last night due to an upset stomach. No time for a nap today, unfortunately.

I'm sorry you had an upset stomach. I hope it wasn't the martini you had last night.

I always need a nap . I normally sleep about 4 hours and find myself wanting to nod off. I will fall asleep in my recliner for about an hour and like you, I usually feel better.

When I lacked sleep on the night before, I try to take a nap before lunch whenever possible. A nap of 1 to 2 hours will do. I am very conscious with sleep because lack of sleep is one factor in strokes.

@just4him my brother had a stroke on May 13. He said that it was due to lack of sleep and stress. He was taking maintenance medication for a long time but did not help.

@just4him It's okay, she's small, and when I became a mother, I became sensitive to every sound.
