[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DH here.  How do I tell my cheetah wife that I need hours of do-nothing/nap time to recharge my batteries?[/quote]

You don't!  If you're an adult who takes naps on the weekends you are LAZY!  Get a solid amount of sleep at night and exercise to increase your energy.[/quote]

This poster just doesn't get it. Everyone is different. I wouldn't call myself a sloth, yet I need a nap every day. I cannot function well without a nap. I'm a very light sleeper, and often get broken, not restful sleep at night. I need a nap to recharge during the day. I have a very stressful life right now, and I am not high energy. But lazy? People who need rest aren't lazy, they're tired. My DH is having a very hard time at work right now, and he needs to sleep for hours on the weekends just to recharge his batteries. I resent that he's asleep while I'm taking care of the house and kids, but I completely understand his need for extra sleep right now. He's mostly a Cheetah, super high energy, never needs or takes naps, and sleeps like a solid rock at night, unlike me. We all wear down at times, and everyone has different needs, so lighten up, PP. You may one day find yourself in a situation where you need some rest, and it won't feel very good to have an unsympathetic person say you're lazy. Tired, yes, exhausted, probably, in need of sympathy, absolutely. Leave the man alone and let him get some sleep. [/quote]
