      My hours are 12 until 7 am. I seem to wake up at 4 or 5 am and I am not a morning person so I hate waking up so early. My trouble is I get so sleepy at 9 or 10 pm and I am sure this nap is not helping me. Some people say enjoy your early mornings, well I like being a night owl and am most happy that way.

      DO you have any ideas how I can make myself not take this nap? I get so sleepy early in the night. I have tried to go to bed 15 minutes later but that didnt help. I am planning on throwing water in my face or keep my feet on the floor. Looks like I will have to make myself do this even though it is so hard. Any other suggestions? I cant walk around outside this time of night and geez probably wake husb up if I walk inside.

      I cant remember what I use to do. I never had trouble sleeping before, I could take naps, even long ones and just go on to bed when I wanted to after watching tv. I think I have some fear I wont be able to get to sleep. 2 years ago I was miserable but thankful I can sleep now, just hate getting up so early. I am retired since covid and maybe just dont need so much sleep.
