I think you are right, 9 is good!

Mind you, moose bites can be nasty.

Thats good to know. I usually wake up several times a night either by the Chihuahua charging off the bed to run and bark something up or by the Beagle snoring like a lumberjack in his pet bed. Its a real snooze fest in our bedroom. Somehow we squeeze in about 8 hours.

[Revelation 911]

bed by 9:00 - up at 3am - work from 6-4 - 4 days a week - 6hrs is ok - but would prefer 9

Mind you, moose bites can be nasty.

That's why so many Swedes left Sweden and came to the United States. Unfortunately no one warned them about settling in Minnesota.

The moose are thick there, especially around Frostbite Falls.

I think our bodies tell us when to sleep.

There are so many variables such as age, activity, health, etc.

I remember one time in Vegas watching Jackie Mason.
After wanting to see him for years I fell asleep. My body and mind told me to do it.
