Polyphasic sleep day 18 and 19

Wednesday/Thursday
Last night I overslept again. I came home quite late and after shower and a small bite to eat I went for my 8pm nap and….woke up around 10pm. I wasn’t happy. I tried to stay up but t was very difficult so I decided to o to sleep and wake up around midnight.
Oh, the bed was such a pleasure. I enjoyed every minute of it and didn’t get p until 5am. I was disappointed in myself and seven surprised because the night before was perfect, I was fully awake and enjoyed myself. To be honest I think it’s down to working too hard.
At work I missed my 8am nap but did the other two.
Then in the evening I went with my family to watch my older daughter Christmas Show at her school. The show was excellent and very rewarding. However it started at 7.30 and that meant missing my 8pm nap. Well, I couldn’t do anything about it. I just missed it. We came back home around 22.30 so I had a shower and managed to say awake till 23.30. I took the nap. Woke up and stayed awake until 20pm. I took another nap. I knew I had to catch up for my missing nap.
Now I’m just about to have my 4am nap. The night wasn’t very easy but I managed. As soon as I feel very sleepy I just go downstairs and start pottering around. This helps a lot and then I can go back to reading or listening.
I slept on and off from 4am till 8am.
It’s 9am in the morning and I’m at home! Now the true experiment will start.
