    I just took like a good 2 hour nap. Think I'll go and take another soon...I've been known to take 6 hour "naps" in the daytime which is really just more like going to sleep, but then I also go to sleep at night. I'm working now though so that can no longer happen lol.

    Usually a nap rests me enough that after taking 30 minutes to wake up I'm more motivated to get **** done.

    I just woke up from a nap. I don't take them during the week but on the weekends, it's normal for me to nap for 30 minutes to an hour each day.

    I use to nap a lot. But now that I eat better and exercise I don't. It's good to not feel tired all the time!

    Oh Yes. Since I retired I have been asked if I ever find retirement boring. My answer is, Yes sometimes I get bored but then I just roll over and take a nap until the boredom goes away.:yawn:

    Exactly. I will even sleep for 20 minutes on my lunch hour. Helps me not kill people in the afternoon hours. :grumble:

    When I was 237lbs I was going to uni, working 5 hour shifts in a busy kitchen four times a week and going to the gym three times a week. You bet your sweet *kitten* I napped. I would come home from work and pass out on the damn floor.

    I have less of a compulsion to nap now that I'm eating more and doing a little less and weighing a LOT less. I napped yesterday just for the hell of it... I love sleep.

    I nap everyday around 2:30 pm for an hour. Does wonders.

    I :heart: naps. Seriously. I have 2 daughters, 6 yrs old and 2 yrs old, and on weekends I almost always nap when my 2 yr old does. My 6 yr old uses it as her "down" time and usually curls up and watches a movie. I'll snooze on the couch. I feel so much better and have more energy to get things done in the afternoon. If I could nap everyday, I totally would!

    I used to nap most sundays pre-baby, then I tried to join her in her afternoon naps.... now she is 2 and naps on the go of a weekend, I don't get one. Except yesterday... 2 hours undisturbed on the sofa... heaven!

    Thankfully I did all the chores beforehand 'cos I was useless when I woke up!

    I can't do naps, or I probably can but that 30 minute max time frame is always exceed cause I'm lazy like that ????
    And when I do wake up, it's probably from 3+ hours of actual sleep... Wake up groggy and messing my whole sleeping pattern since I can't sleep till 3 am in the morning.

    I love naps! I nap during my lunch hour a few times a week and the whole family takes naps during the weekend. I was raised with mandatory naps and my husband and I are following tradition.
