I respond very badly to late nights, I can't function very well when I'm tired and I'm definitely a lark rather than a night owl! Weekdays I go to bed at about 9:30 and am asleep by 10pm-ish, my alarm goes off at 6am and I am usually woken up by cats at about 05:55.
At wkends though, I go to sleep at about midnight and get up at 6am to feed kitties and let them out, then I shut the kitchen door and go back to bed usually until about noon.I love my weekend lie-ins and after a particularly hard week I can sometimes sleep for a good 14 hours with about a 10 minute break to sort out the cats.
I used to sleep much less but then Red taught me the value of the lie-in and I'm a convert
