My sleep schedule has blown up this weekend! I haven't followed it at all (well maybe a little).
Sunday is the hardest day to keep my schedule, because of all the other things that are going on. Saturday was a very modified day, and then I followed it with a Sunday that didn't follow any of the rules. I did end up taking my 8am nap, with no problems whatsoever. It went exactly as it should.
Then my 12pm nap is right in the middle of church. Last week I skipped out for just a bit at the time when it was the most ideal. This week, I decided to delay the nap altogether. That made things easier at church, but harder to figure out later. I was able to get a shortened nap at 3:30pm and that was going to have to cover for my normal 12pm and my 4pm nap. It didn't quite cover, as I got pretty tired around 8:30pm. I was at my brother's house, and felt my normal "oh I'm tired, I can bet it's 8:55pm". I was a half our early (I guess it's because I took a 3:30 nap instead of 4:00). Well, I decided not to miss out on family discussions etc. I started getting a slight headache. That would happen to me quite often when I was still a monophasic sleeper, if I had to pull a late night or two. So, I guess my body was telling me to get some sleep.
We got home from my brother's around 10:00pm and I went down pretty soon after for my 9pm nap. I remember the alarm waking me, and the next thing I knew, I was waking up naturally (with no alarm) at 5:30am. I got up for a little bit and decided to sleep a little more. It didn't work so well for me. I woke up at 6am with my headache worse than it was the night before. I don't remember it hurting when I was up at 5:30. I guess I still haven't learned my lesson on getting up when I wake up naturally, and not trying to get that extra little bit.
I am going to have to skip the 8am nap too. It's Monday and I need to finish setting up my class for the week. So, the schedule has blown up! My intent is to get back to the schedule, but we'll see if I actually manage to do it or not.
