I Think I Angered My Beautyrest Sleeptracker Monitor

Recently, I posted about the Beautyrest® Sleeptracker® monitor. It is a product I received to review and promote. I was compensated. I use it every night to monitor my sleep. Today was my first time using it while I slept for the day while I worked overnights. I’m pretty sure that my Sleeptracker is mad at how pitiful my sleep was today. I am not sure exactly when I drifted off to sleep because…

Okay, this was how the day went. I got home form work and stopped at my parent’s house to pick up my Dad’s truck. I was picking up some rain barrels today at 9 am. I watched an episode of Transformers Robots in Disguise (Season 3 just started) and fell asleep while watching. I got up in time to get over to the recycling center to get the rain barrels and was back by 9:15. That should have given me a great day of sleep. The problem is that I didn’t go right to sleep. I read part of the comic book that I got from the Marvel Collector Corps box that I unboxed yesterday. That usually gets me to sleep. It didn’t. Then I reached for my Nintendo Switch. Link and I set off through Hyrule to find shrines and side quests and much more. When I am super tired and I play video games I tend to fall asleep with them on my face or millimeters from it. Not this time. I must have powered through to stay awake and continue playing. I didn’t even look at the time when I finally stopped. Then I rolled over and went to sleep.

I woke up at 3:29 and looked at the results of the Sleeptracker monitor. I had slept for 1 hour. One single hour. I apparently was awake for at least 2 hours before I opened my eyes at 3:29.

I’m completely out of practice for weekend sleeping. No one was home and I didn’t put in my earplugs. I played too long on the video game and I didn’t get to sleep immediately upon returning home. I’m thinking that tomorrow’s sleep tracker screen can’t look any worse.

On the way to work I decided that I wanted to have ice cream for dinner and I stopped in to Summer Scoops. They have some good soft serve ice cream. Well, on Saturdays between 4 and 6 they have a super deal where you get two hot dogs, chips and a drink plus an ice cream. Well, I couldn’t pass that up for under $5. What a deal.

So, I may not have slept much today but some ice cream certainly put me in a better mood.

I have partnered with Life of Dad and Beautyrest for this campaign, but my opinions are my own.

My New Bedmate the Beautyrest sleeptracker

Sleep is a rare commodity for me. I have a crazy sleep schedule that I would not wish on anyone. Here’s a typical week for me. Strap in for a crazy ride.

Most people start their weeks on Monday morning when they go to work. On Monday mornings I am returning from work. I start my work week on Friday night at 7pm. However, my Friday usually begins at 5:30am when Andrew wakes us up. We have not been able to break him of this habit. So, I am up starting very first thing in the morning and I’m awake until about 9am Saturday morning. That means that each Friday into Saturday I am awake for 28 hours straight.

That Is Just The Beginning. Continue reading #ISleepTo Survive this Parenting Thing. I use the @Beautyrest #Sleeptracker monitor to help improve on both. #ad
