Beginning to think that it must be approaching bed time - time looked at my watch - 1530!

Mike I regularly, have a kip in the afternoon, 2 hours plus. The 'Troop' compel me into the study to get on the 'day bed sofa', so to do. They then arrange themselves, either draped around me or on the rug in front of the Fireplace. I find now if I'm home (mostly these days and in the winter particularly) I seem to need (and enjoy it).

I still resist having a nap in the daytime & I don't have all that much sleep anyway.

I'm waiting for Alexa to get fed up & ask me why I ask her questions every 30 minutes during the night.

I've started to fall asleep in the afternoon, unless I'm out of course. 
It's not intentional, it just happens.  Even sat at the kitchen table and I can drop off :grin:

Oh, Marge and I usually have a sleep in late afternoon.  Perhaps an hour or so, though it varies if something (perhaps a cat or two) does something to wake us.

Cassandra.. You have the best company to snuggle down with.. I can see you all heading for the 'day bed sofa'.. Wonderful.

I head for the settee in the afternoon.. around 2pm..
I either read or watch a bit of tv..  Both make me tired.. My head drops forward.. my mouth falls open.. and I'm sure I dribble sometimes..
Not a pretty picture..

My OH is asleep.  His afternoon nap is a regular occurrence, I'm much more random. If i sit down with a book, or the TV, I'm likely to nod off...🥱😴
