Until a few months ago Jackie was working at a bakery, which necessitated getting up at 4:30 AM several days a week in order for her to be to work on time. To support that, we were going to bed by 8:00 PM most days. Even now, months later, we are still working to get bedtime pushed back to at least 9:00 PM. (Earlier than that not only makes evening activities untenable, it also puts bedtime too close to the end of supper.)

In my case my brain shuts down just fine at 9:00 PM. The problem arises in the wee hours. If my brain gets going at 2:00 AM or 3:00 AM I can pretty much kiss the rest of that night's sleep goodbye.

Good to hear from you, Jerry! And I will keep the blog updated with what I learn from the Oura ring.
