Shitty sleep again on Monday. I think I finally said enough and got up after 4am. I did take a long 2+ hour nap during the day. It was a rest day from the gym, but I played 18 holes of night golf! After getting dinner it was nearly midnight when I went to bed. I took some melatonin, hoping it would help me sleep through the night.
On Tuesday I woke up way too early again, but didn’t look at the time and stayed in bed until some time after 7. Might have fallen back to sleep here and there. I had a nasty headache (#1 side effect of melatonin) pretty much all day. Tried to take an hour nap before lunch, which it didn’t really work. Decided to make it another rest day from the gym and not push my body. Even took a second nap around 5 because I was still feeling like shit with the headache.
Went to bed just after 10 last night. Woke up and not sure I really fell asleep again, but didn’t “get up” until almost 6:30. After breakfast and getting laundry started, I went to the fitness center around 10am.

This was getting sketchy, especially since I came back to the apartment to do it. Was worried my hands would slip out on me because of the tile floor.
