Why is that when we're younger, we dread taking naps..and as we get older, we'd give anything for a 15 minute snooze with peace and quiet?
For me, naps are a luxury. With two kids, ages 5 and 8, there is no time to catch some zzzzz's during the day.

I do look forward to football season, though, because Sundays are big family football days at our house, and 9 times out of 10, I fall asleep in the afternoon watching the games. So bring on the football! Go Packers!

Question Re: If I knew then what I know now....

At 57, for the most part of my life I have taken naps whenever possible. I believe the body lets us know when we are tired and napping restores us to our 'perfect' selves.
Again this is just my belief.

Daytime napping can be restorative. With the exception of when I'm at work - I never resist a power nap when my eyelids get heavy. wouldn't it be great for work to be like kindegarten and we could all have a short rest period each afternoon?
