i'll be the first to admit that my sleep cycles are not normal
i'm working on it though
and this last couple of weeks, i HAVE noticed an improvement
besides biting the bullet and actually crawling into bed a bit earlier
the only other thing that's changed is that i'm exercising more
not a LOT more, just more
and then yesterday i stumbled across this article from msnbc
one of the people mentioned states that an hour of exercise can make up for an hour of sleep
so sleep 7 hours, exercise for one
apparently it's the same benefits
erm, i'll have to work up to 7 hours of sleep a night...
but i think that's a definite possibility
especially since my complaint about going to bed earlier is that i can't fall asleep...
same study shows that regular aerobic exercise can improve ability to sleep
well, fall is in the air
time to put on those running shoes!

i'm the same way. i don't usually go to bed until after midnight. 2 being the average. and then get up for school with my daughter and come home and nap. i no longer exercise but certainly PLAN to...it just never works out. LOL
