LOL I guess when I referred to my daughter I should mention that she is now 36 yrs old and still requires alot of sleep. Which some do. She goes pretty hard all day chasing two little boys around and running a business so she stays busy and is phsically tired at the end of the day.

I try to maintain a 6-8 hours sleep because of my work, but most of the times I get an average sleep of only 6 hours. But I am glad that we are allowed to take a nap in the afternoons, during our 30 mins. break from work. It helps me alot, I finish my work and perform well. Plus, it is also good for our health, because it helps our heart to function well.

When I was younger, I could get by on 5 hours sleep and still function well at work. Now I prefer to get 7-8 hours sleep to be able to function well during the day. If this keeps up, I'll be needing 10 hours every night by the time I'm 75...LOL.

I had an old Garfield Poster that said "I DON'T DO MORNINGS" LOL that is pretty much how I feel about them. My hubby can open his eyes and start the day chipper and happy....ME on the other hand need lots of hot tea and quiet time to get the engines started. Speaking to me is NOT the way to win my smiles in the mornings.

I feel dizzy when I'm not able to complete at least 6-7 hours of sleep per night. I just feel bad when i lack sleep.

I probably get an average of 6-7 hrs sleep per night.
I'd like probably an hour more, and some nights I can manage that, and some not.

I really wish I could remeber what it is like to sleep for 8-10 hours! I think I could use it, but I don't seem to have the time. My energy comes from the adrenalin surge that bolts me straight up in bed as soon as the alarm goes off. I know I need to hit the floor running. I am pooped at the end of the day.
I would love to languish in bed for a couple of extra hours.

Well, i used to sleep at midnight at around 2am, and wake up at 8am the following morning. I cant sleep early in evening and i think i'm good with about 6hrs. But sometimes, it makes me sleepy in the morning because i lack sleep at night. And what i do is getting a nap at noon and again get sleep at midnight..lol
