Hmmm. I stayed up yesterday, had a busy day, went to bed early and then woke up at 2am, bright as a button. Needless to say, I’m not feeling my best this morning! 14 months ago

This is the second part of my Lenten practice for this year. I’ve slipped into the habit of napping every morning and generally slinking off to bed at the slightest provocation. So I’m going to abide by the ‘rules’ I have for sleep:

Get up between 6am and 9am
Go to bed between 8pm and 11pm
No napping outwith these times.

This will give me plenty in the ‘giving up’ department of Lent and also help me with the ‘do something extra’ of daily Mass. 15 months ago
