My nights vary. Some weeks I will have to get up for awhile during the night, like last night, usually because of temperature -- I had to turn off the heat/turn on the air conditioning so there would be cool air for my sinuses/asthma. I stayed up for about an hour or a bit more, had a bowl of cereal :-) and played solitaire on my computer, etc. Since I'm retired I can sleep in if I want so I did not get up until 10:00 this morning. But most nights I'm like you, newgal, I may get up and pee once or twice or use my inhaler or something but then I go back to sleep okay and wake up okay; I don't like to take naps because that messes up my nights it seems, but my husband does almost every day.
