I normally go to sleep sometime between 9pm and midnight, recently more often closer to 9-10pm because I have not been feeling well and been exhausted, and I cannot go to bed earlier because I get out of work in time to pick up the kids by 6pm, then we need to eat/do homework/relax a bit/bathtime/reading books -- all within 3 hours. Then I have to get out of bed no later than 6am. So if I go to bed at same time as my kids with no adult free time, that means 9hours of sleep tops, and I need 6hours of sleep minimum to function. 6am is the latest I can get up and still get kids ready for school and get myself to work on time.
The point I was making here is that a few days ago, I did fall back to sleep after a 5am wakup and then I woke up at wrong time in sleep cycle, and I was groggy and tired all day. Today I woke up at 5am knowing that I could at most sleep for another hour, and decided that was not worth the risk of what happened a few days ago, and I do feel ok not groggy today.
