delete the folder that it's in. sleepyhead isn't "installed" at present, you just run it from the folder.

From what I could see, SleepyHead doesn't "Install" at all. It runs the executable directly so there are no start menu items, shortcuts, or registry keys anywhere. Therefore you uninstall it by deleting it. Mine for example is in my PROGRAMS/Sleepyhead folder, so I would delete my Sleepyhead folder. Mind you, this is on Windows 7, but it's a homebrew program with no fluff, so I'm pretty confident that's all it needs.

The posts above are correct. The program can be simply deleted. The data usually resides in a My Documents folder. So you can delete the program folder without losing data. If you delete the Sleepyhead folder under My Documents, be sure to back up the files first.
