Friday Poll

I was supposed to go to a field trip of Mr. P's the other day, but some things happened, and I was only able to get five hours of sleep. And dude, Gina cannot exist on five hours of sleep alone. So I had to beg off, which was no big deal since I wasn't a chaperone or anything, and I went home and slept for a blissful two and a half hours.

How many hours of sleep do you normally get?

And how is that working for you?

You are playing with me, right?

FIVE HOURS? Oh the bliss...

Yeah, my sleep hours are NOT working for me.

When that happens to me I can make it, but I'm a wreck all day, then I get home and I'm wired for sound. It's like a cruel joke. I average 7-1/2 a night. 10 to 11 on special weekends, at least one of the days.

I probably get about 6-7 work nights and 8-9 on weekends. Sometimes more, sometimes less. Today is a less type of day since stuff happened last night for me too and even though I try to stay away from caffeine I will likely be hitting it today... which will make tonight and therefore tomorrow it's own situation. Thankfully I don't believe there are any plans for tomorrow.

I get around 7, regardless of whether it's workday or weekend. I'm such a creature of habit that I get up after 7 hours, no matter what. It works out fine. If I lose sleep due to stress or illness, I usually manage to catch it up somehow. My issue is that I just cannot EVER nap during the day. EVER. I am envious of those who can.

I get 8 most nights, a bit more on weekends. I need my sleep!

I probably get 5 or 6 on a good night. It works out alright except during really busy days, then not so much.

Seven, usually. Being a night shift guy, it's not how much I sleep that's killing me so much as when I sleep. Though I have set up a nice quiet dark room, I still feel like sleeping in the daytime throws me off, even though I've been doing it for years.

I try to get 7-8 hours. Since I've been in menopause, I've struggled to get 5-6 though. It's been a rough couple months. I do best on at least 7 hours.

Solid seven; it's juuuuuust right. Before I had kids I slept 5-6 and was rarin' to early every morning, but now the body demands seven.

close to 8 hours for me. if i sleep all night... I am so a daylight person so it's a good thing I'm no vampire.

about 5 hours on a good night.. none consecutive though... a big issue in my life, chronic sleep deprevation;(

Typically between 6-7 which really isn't enough for me. I just can't make it to bed earlier. Or, if I do, I get wrapped up in a book and stay up too late reading!

Here I am, late to the Friday poll AGAIN. I overslept. Ha ha ha.

I get about 8+ hours of sleep each night. I've been put on some really powerful (and weird) drugs, though, so I am now craving much more sleep. I think the sleep I am getting isn't restful which is why I need more.
