Yes, without a problem that you can see today! I'd advise that you should consider changing your behavior and perhaps start saving to replace them....leaving a lead-acid battery in a discharged or partial discharged state for any significant time is not good for the battery. Think of as a form of battery plate "rust", the sponge lead sulphate on the plates harden's as the discharged battery sets over time - ooops! There goes some more capacity that cannot be recovered by recharging.
A good analogy is like adding a lb of marbles to your fuel tank every time you fill it, eventually there's very little actual fuel in the tank! In the battery industry 24hrs is considered as significant! Meaning, they should be recharged within 24 hrs.
Have fun!
