Sometimes a little sleep is all you need
Today, for the first time in forever, I had a catchup sleep during the day.
Like most of us, I'm busy. Working. Walking the dog. Looking after my daughter - doing school drop off some days, pick up the rest.
Me-time is a rare commodity.
So rare, that when I have it I cherish it. I want to do things that I don't get to do during my ordinary days: play guitar; write stories and music and songs; have fun with my family; play boardgames; read...
But sometimes - very rarely - I go to sleep.
And wow did I need it.
Sometimes I feel I'm like a little kid - I get so tired I don't actually know I'm exhausted and making bad decisions, saying stupid things and being grumpy.
Research came out this week showing that weekend sleep-in's add years to the average life. So, note to self (and all of you): remember to take the opportunity to sleep - before you need to.
Just go with the guilty pleasure and live a little.

The results of many researches indicate that sleep deficiency leads to blurred vision, poor eyesight, problems with driving and remembering information. The deferred effects of lack of sleep include obesity, insulin resistance and the development of heart disease. I personally enjoy sleep on weekends as much possible.

Hola @drowm
Tienes toda la razón.
En lo particular la hiperactividad mía no me permite ni tomar una siesta.
Me encantaría hacerlo..... Pero si la tomará creo que no pudiera dormir en la noche.
Saludos y bonita la foto.... Ahhhh por cierto parece un zorro pero muy bello. jijijijij
So contradicting the last research I heard that advised getting up at the same time every day regardless of whether it's the weekend or not? XD
Not that it really makes any difference to me I sleep and wake up whenever x_x
I wasnt a person who sleeps in the day, but noticed lately that it gives me some extra energy when I need it. A short nap is a must :)
as children we were refusing to take a nap but know we are ready to pay just for a few minutes of rest
So, is it a long sleep during the day? Or just a 12 minutes nap? Or siesta?
I have read somewhere that sleeping very important for our healing. So, sleeping adequately everyday is a good practice. Sorry for my English.
but sir less sleep can cause harm to your health. everyone should sleep 7 or more hours on a regular basis.
