    I need 8 minimum and lately I've needed one night of 12 hours sleep per week - don't know what's going on, but that's what my body is dictating!!

    I sleep about 10 hours on average for every 24 hour period. Some days it may only be 8 hours other days it may be as many as 12 to 14 hours. I may not get all of my sleep at once, but I do get it all in. I normally will sleep some at night and then take a two hour nap in the afternoon. If I only got a couple of hours at night then I will take a morning nap and an early evenng nap.

    Need 8 to feel good but usually get about 7 in the summer.
    Am better about getting 8..or more in the winter.

    Sometimes the 'quality' of my sleep is lousy then doesn't matter what I get. That is when I take a little 'news snooze' somewhere between 5 and 7.

    Usually in bed between 9:30 - 10 p.m., up between 4:30 and 4:45 a.m. - no later than 5. That's what the alarm clock is set on, but it rarely sounds to wake us up. I sleep-in on the weekend, getting up between 5:00 - 5:20 a.m. I don't require much sleep and love being a morning lark.

    I honestly sleep 10-12 hours a day. But I think that has to do with me working 11pm-7am.

    If I am lucky, I will get 6 hours. I toss and turn all night long. I usually start to fade out about 7:30 will read for an hour or so and then toss and turn till 4am. I wouldn't know what to do if I got a full 8 hours.

    8-9 hours, sleep is a priority for me. They call it "beauty rest" for a reason
