For those of you just trying to catch some 😴😴😴

; others might write in a journal, listen to a podcast, or read a good book. I decided that my bedtime routine would involve putting on actual pajamas , then reading a physical book or working on a paper crossword.

Going into this experiment, I knew that the set bedtime and wake-up time would be the hardest thing for me to stick to, particularly on the weekends. I was also a little worried about quitting caffeine at 4 P.M., because I usually work after dinner and didn’t want my concentration to falter if my energy dipped. I endeavored to make a note every time I felt crazily sleepy during the day, woke up feeling awful, wanted to nap, or actually napped.

The first few nights were much easier than I anticipated. I did feel some FOMO when my husband came home and asked if I wanted to watch an episode ofat 10:57 P.M., three minutes before my self-imposed screen cut-off time. But I actually enjoyed sitting in bed with a book. When I turned off my light at midnight, I did not feel tired. Like, at all.

Over the weekend, things got a bit hairy. On Friday night I got to bed on time, but waking up at 7:45 A.M. on a Saturday morning was…a grim experience. After an hour of feeling quite sorry for myself, I hit up an early spin class, then we went to my in-laws' house outside the city and spent the afternoon swimming, enjoying the sun , and playing with dogs. After all that, I was wiped…and I took a long, delicious nap. I also fell asleep at 11:30 that night and blissfully slept until 9 a.m.

Getting back on schedule for the week was a mixed bag. On Sunday night, I had a lot of trouble falling asleep, and I felt super groggy and out of it on both Monday and Tuesday mornings. I also really wanted to nap on Monday afternoon, but talked myself out of it.
