Day 61 ~ Sleep

Some days it just feels great to sleep. Yesterday I arrived home in the afternoon and felt really tired. I planned to take a nap, thirty to forty minutes. I fell asleep immediately, and for almost two hours I kept telling myself, "just a little bit more." Normally, if something weeks me up, I have a hard time falling asleep again. Not this time. I kept checking the phone every time I woke up, but my body kept thinking it needed more sleep. I feared I would have a hard time falling asleep last night. Far from it--I went to bed and fell asleep before midnight (something that hadn't happened in over a month) and I slept almost nine hours that night. My sleep tracking watch reported 3 hours and 13 minutes of deep sleep, which is an extra hour over my average deep sleep count.
