I'm a tired person

Almost all the time I am tired. Especially when I'm at work. I work from home so the urge to take a cat nap on my lunch is huge.
Thankfully I manage to talk myself out of it all of the time because by the time I fall asleep it will be time to get up and go back to work again.
I finally caved and bought me some Pepsi bottles because it was on sale.
I'm trying to get out of poverty and debt so I am charging myself for every soda/pop I drink. I figure if I was working at an office I would have to buy them from the machine. So bottle or can it costs me $1.
That $1 goes into my soda fund. Every paycheck I will put $10 into my fund in an envelope. Whenever I drink a soda I pull $1 out of the envelope and put it in the container.
When I need to buy more soda I pull from my soda fund $$s so they cycle keeps repeating. My goal is that once I hit $40 that anything above that goes into a savings challenge.
A case of 36 cans is $20-35 at Sam's Club, I don't remember exactly, so I will always be coming out ahead.
I am hoping that this slowly helps build my savings.
My daughter thought she'd get in on this as well and bought some Diet Dr Pepper, which I like, and decided she is going to charge me $1 per bottle but I told her I am not buying hers because that doesn't allow me to refill my stock when I'm running low.
