TODAY’S POLL

LAST POLL RESULTS

35.8% of you voted Only when I’m really exhausted in yesterday’s poll: How do naps fit into your routine?

“Only take a nap when I wake up really early in the morning and feel tired.”

“I’m retired now, so I just sleep in and don’t need a nap. Sure needed them when I was working.”

“It’s nice to now have the opportunity to nap when I need to. I have a varied sleep schedule, so I try to stay up all day so I can go to sleep at a decent time — but inevitably a few times a week, my eyes feel sooooooo heavy, and I know if I close them and take a two-hour nap, I’ll feel much better.”

“Nothing beats a 45-minute nap around 5 pm.”

“Usually, I wake up from a nap not feeling super refreshed, and it disrupts my night. The exception is a quick, 20-minute power nap.”

“15-30 minute power nap to get through the afternoon and evening.”

“MAKES THE DAY GO FASTER.”

“I like naps, but I have to resist the temptation to use them as work avoidance instead of a pause to refresh.”

“I’m more apt to nap on the weekend, but I rarely nap during the workweek.”

“A Sunday afternoon nap is a guarantee!”

“Never been much of a napper until recently — maybe that comes with age.”

“I wish I could nap — especially on an airplane. People who can snooze on a plane are so lucky. My older friends take a cat nap during the day and love it. I’m better off hitting the bed early than napping. A good night’s sleep is the best.”

“I love, love naps!!! I’m retired now and taking full advantage of my sleep time!”

“The joy of being retired — sitting in the recliner with the kitty on my lap, and both of us entering the Land of Nod (or, as my mother called it, the Featherbed Ball).”

“AAAHHHHHHH… :0)”

“I know rest is important — I just find there’s too much to keep me busy.”

“I was never a napper! If I take a nap, it happens naturally — I never try to take one.”

“Has to happen spontaneously! Mostly by accident — and rarely at that.”

“I need to sleep at night, so going to bed tired and skipping naps works best.”

“Don’t ever nap, but because I don’t sleep much at night, I’d really like to!”

“Naps are nice if I have had a sleepless night.”
