Re-Sleep

To go back to sleep within 1 hour after waking up, usually because one has stayed out too late the night before or is hung over.

Re-Sleep is differnt than a nap since it is so close to the actual night time sleeping, any sleep after the 1 hour limit is called a nap.

She was so tired in the morning that she went back to bed almost immediately, trying to re-sleep. By trying to re-sleep she could avoid the negativeness of taking a nap and could honestly say she got up a 8 AM.
