Au Revoir For The Weekend

5:11 p.m. July 26, 2012
Yesterday and today I slept in.  I wasn’t utilizing the snooze button so that messed me up.  I did rest in the afternoon though.  Yesterday was harder to fall asleep while today there wasn’t too much of an issue.  As promised here’s a picture of the painting I finished up;

Sunflowers

This weekend I’m going up north on a fishing trip with my brother, dad and uncle.  During this time I may be able to stick with the schedule or I may not.  I don’t really have a plan going into this; I’ll just work with what happens.  So until Monday, happy sleep cycles!

Back On Track

5:59 a.m.
Last night I went to bed about five minutes early on purpose and today I woke up right on time.  I’m very glad that I decided to use the snooze button otherwise I would probably still be in bed right now.  I would also like to add that my bed has never been as comfortable as it was at 5:00 a.m. during summer break.  It was a struggle to get out of bed to say the least.

My run today went well, I’m very happy with today so far and I’ve been awake an hour.  As far as my plans are for today, I’ll try to finish up that painting I posted last night and put some man hours into yard work.

I’ll be putting another update on the blog after my afternoon rest period.

Another Late Morning

7:56 a.m.
I slept in again today.  If it weren’t for sleeping in I would have no problems with my experiment.  However, as it is, I’m sleeping in about half the time.  This is getting to be very frustrating since it would make the project pointless if I continue to do so.  I hope that simply hitting the snooze button no matter how awake I am will do the trick.  I haven’t once used it so far because I didn’t feel like had a need for it.  I’m thinking much differently at this point.

Last night went well, I stayed up right until 1:00 p.m. and I watched my first episode of Mad Men.  It’s very well done but I’d recommend watching it in order and not jumping in wherever your older brother is.  I was glad to have stayed up that late even though I almost dozed off a couple times and was drowsy.

My typical breakfast, delicious

So as this post shows you, I’m doing the sleep cycle but it’s the details that I’m getting ahold of.  I don’t have anything wrong with me mentally or physically and I’ll stop telling you that after this because I haven’t felt off since the first couple days.
