"Only buy new clothes to replace what's worn out.
If your household size is 2 or fewer, cook a large batch of something and have leftovers the next 2 days. This allows you to buy at lower unit costs and to plan meals, so there's less waste…"

Science Friday has a section on sleep.
First you need to be getting the amount of sleep your body needs in the night. So are you getting 7-9 hours at night?

When I was younger and not in an office during daytime working hours I would take naps when my schedule permitted during the day. I don't have any solid evidence to support this but personally I had the most success with trying to time my nap to sleeping cycles. I heard somewhere that you sleep in 3 hour cycles. If I was able to lay down and get a 45 minute nap or a 90 minute nap I would wake up refreshed and ready to go. If the nap was 30 minutes or an hour there was no telling how I would feel when I woke up.
This mentions the cycles and my numbers sort of fall in line with theirs.

On the rare occasion where I am exhausted I will go to me car during my one hour lunch break to take a nap. I drink some caffeine then set my alarm for 45 minutes and recline my seat back. I get a nice little power nap and the caffeine has kicked in at this point and I usually wake up feeling better than when I went to sleep.

Whatever gets you through the night. I don't even have issue with people proselytizing. It's these zealots that are irritating. "

Does make life comfortable, I suppose.

The Great Debate
"Iron sharpens iron." A place for men to impact each other by debate and exchange of ideas. This is a group where no ideas are off limits. If your motto is, "I never talk about politics or religion," this group is probably not for you. A "gym" for thinkers.See More
