length of nap time makes a diff with some people on the grogginess
I wonder if u still have that picture?? LmfaoAn asshole!!
All my life I have slept 4-6 hours. Its been 6 lately.Sometimes your body needs a couple extra hours to help relieve the stress or fatigue.
We aren't meant for 6-8 hours of sleep a day. We need 8-10 hours for good health.
Lack of sleep, stress, high activity/exercise all increase the need for naps.
We generally start to drink coffee when we are sleepy, even though it is your body's way of telling you to reboot with a nap. Or we make ourselves stay up so we have more time to spend with the hubby or friends.
I need a new mattress soon. Ours is 10 years old.All my life I have slept 4-6 hours. Its been 6 lately.
They key to it is a good mattress. I mean you spend up to a third of your life in it. I buy quality name brand mattresses. I get a better quality sleep. I'm groggy if I sleep somewhere with out it.

My next one will be the dual chamber sleep number bed where you can adjust it on each side. I slept in one and it was awesome. I want the one where it moves like a hospital bed. Raise the head if you get heart burn or raise you leg for swelling.
Did you know a mattress can double in weight in ten years from dead skin cells. Yuck!
There is no actual study to prove the amount. It does gain weight and that's gross. Your pillow does to.Not really. It's a great phony stat for mattress salesmen...

As is the case with precise but shaky widespread beliefs, the mattress claim was questioned when it initially appeared in 2000; and as is similarly common, the subsequent adjustment of facts failed to spread nearly as far as its more titillating predecessor. Just a few months after the WSJ article was published, Ohio State University researcher Emmett Glass (quoted in the original piece) explained:
I never quoted that statistic. I told [the reporter] that Internet web sites have statistics that try to strike fear in the consumer, thus promoting their products. I gave her a few off the top of my head (two million mites in an average mattress, mattress doubling in weight, etc.) that I read over the years. She asked me if any of these statistics have any scientific merit and I told her that none of them are in the literature. To the layman that is NO! In fact I asked the Wall Street Journal writer to call an expert on mattresses at the internal sleep products association. She did and was told that the statistic on mattresses doubling in weight was far from the truth. The journalist choose to include it in the story anyway. She liked the statistic because it made her story more interesting.
