Is Technology keeping you up at night???
« on: May 05, 2018, 02:17:49 pm »
Lately I've been going to sleep around 3am-4am in morning checking twitter, doing surveys, and playing Cookie Jam. Anyone else a night owl?

No, usually stop internet looking about 8 or 9 pm, watch tv instead.  Don’t look at internet until next morning.

I work 3PM to 11PM 5 days a week so im always wound up a little when i get home.

I was always more a night person then a morning person.But if i dont get to sleep by 3AM i dont feel as fresh the next day.

I don't do  any thing on the computer after 9 p.m., just shut it down. Go to bed around 9:15. But I am  up around 4:30 to 5:30 every morning.  If I can I am out in the yard by then doing yard work before it gets too darn hot. Right now I require a light jacket about that time but within a few hours it is off and it is getting hot. By 10:00 pm  it will be hiting close to a hundred here in a few weeks. so I have to stay ahead of it  as time goes on.

I read or play mild games on my tablet until I feel sleepy.  I don't think I could fall asleep without it.

No! I generally turn it off early evening; the only time I even keep my cell phone in bedroom at night is if there is something going on with my Mom who lives out of state that may be an emergency; she calls equally on landline and cell; but I don't allow technology to keep me up!

I was up until 2am this morning working on a new Channel for YouTube. Learned some new stuff watching a few hours of video yesterday to help me out. The Internet is fantastic.

I generally turn off all tech besides the TV by around 10p.m. but I try to do it earlier. I find that if I am still involved by  8:30, I just turn all off and watch TV.  Frankly, TV can keep me awake sometimes; however, on the other hand, I have grown more and more used to it helping to put me to sleep.  I just turn the sound down so I really have to concentrate to hear it and put the timer for it to turn off in 90 or 120 minutes.

I usually read a book or play a word game on my Kindle before I go to sleep (I have the screen on night shade so that its not glaring bright )   :) :)

used to be a night hawk , and just liked morning too much to keep up that pace.  I love it before the sun comes up listening to the birds, must be them early birds waiting for them worms ! :glasses-nerdy: :glasses-nerdy:

i usually relax to watch TV around 8 p.m., but usually fall asleep by 9. Then i'm awake at 11:30 p.m. If I don't eat my chocolate ice cream at that time, I'd be awake all night! Even then, sometimes it doesn't help and my inner clock will have me awake all night and sleep all day for weeks. it happens every couple months.

Technology doesn't really keep me up because I'm doing stuff all day long on the computer and get tired of it. Like this weekend...i'm not doing anything on here except FC, then I'll shut the computer off until tomorrow and sit on the sofabed reading and doing old-fashioned crossword puzzles from a book.

I used to be a night owl until my children came along. Now I am in bed around 8-9 pm.
