Do you ever wake up WAY earlier than normal & then wonder what to do? email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (6960)   ranked 72 out of 37,995 in life1 year ago

It is the second day of the weekend here and normally I would wake up around 9 - 9:30 AM as this is one of the only days of the week I will actually sleep in late. But I woke up arounbd 6'ish and for the life of me could not get back to sleep. So I have had some coffee and am now tapping away on mylot! To be honest it is hard to find something to occupy my time when I wake up this early. My wife will be sleeping for at least another hour and I have been up for two and a half hours already!

What about you? Do you sometimes wake up way earlier than normal and what do you do to pass the time when this happens?

Yes I wake up sometimes too early where I am still tired but dont want to go back to sleep I usually just wash my face drink something cold eat a fruit and then get on the computer!!!


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (6960)   ranked 72 out of 37,995 in life  1 year ago

Thank goodness for the computer in both of our cases then cristis! I wash my face, drink something HOT but don't eat anything, so we are almost similar there as well! lol. Thanks for the response. happy

Yeah, like yesterday 06:45 I woke up, normally I wake up around 08:00 but when I wake up earlier I'll place my but on the chair and start looking at Mylot, right after I consider to even play a game or code a website:)


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (6960)   ranked 72 out of 37,995 in life  1 year ago

Welcome to mylot Galima! happy I don't think my brain functions well enough to code a website or play a game first up in the morning so mylotting it is for me too. Reading a newspaper would be nice but there are none in English readily available. Online news is too tricky for the morning brain too I think! lol. Thanks for the response.

Yeah yeah, it happened to me b4^_^ ANd i was very frustrated about it.. Because i'm someone whom always wake up at 1230pm, so waking up in the morning will make me feel very lethagic.. But i dunno why i manage to wake up once at 8am, and that i cant fall back asleep.. NO matter how i turn and toss, how cooling is the weather, my body system just refuses to budge, so i have no choice but to wake up.. PLus, i just slept at 3am.. lol

SO i wake up, wash up, switch on my pc, and mylot for just 3 discussions b4 my eyelids feel heavy.. lol=D After which i shut down my pc and went to bed again, only to find myself waking up at 2pm.. lol=D Though i can sleep back, but it's a very funny feeling.. haha=D i will not wanna experience that ever again..


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (6960)   ranked 72 out of 37,995 in life  1 year ago

That's quite late to be waking up normally kun but you did say you go to bed at 3 AM so fair enough! There is nothing worse than knowing it's so early but the body just refuses to go back to sleep. Thankfully it is not something that happens to me a lot. So here I am with a cup of green tea with a slice of lemon and tapping away on mylot. Make hay while the sun shines right? lol. Thanks for the response.

i also wake up too ear;y for quite sometimes and don't want to go back to bed again. i just prepare myself for a short road run then go back home and prepare breakfast.


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (6960)   ranked 72 out of 37,995 in life  1 year ago

I wish I had the discipline to go for a road run but I am not so good when it comes to things like this! Maybe if I did I would sleep better the following night. Thanks for the response princejay. happy

I do almost everyday and I don't know why! And I don't like it! I'd like to be able to go back to sleep and get some more rest but I just can't so I get up and attempt to start my day which is go online, make my hot drink and just wait the time out. Sometimes, I go out and water the plants all over the house, fresh air always makes me feel better. I am also that kind of person who gets into whatever it was I was already doing that I tend to start getting ready to leave the house in less time than I originally intended to.

I guess it's better than staying up way LATER than normal and have nothing else to do at 3 in the morning except watch infomercials.


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (6960)   ranked 72 out of 37,995 in life  1 year ago

Good morning sunshine! (Actually given the time difference it appears that you may not have even gone to bed yet!) Watering plants would be a nice thing to be doing early in the morning but I don't have any! lol. I would steer clear of those infomercials too. Thankfully the ones here are all in Arabic so even if I did get caught up in them I have no chance of buying anything because I don't know what they're saying! lol Thanks for the response and have a good weekend SaintAnne.

There are days when I get up much earlier than usual...but I don't wonder what I need to do. I just start my day earlier and get on with my chores. I do a bit of cleaning if it's before 5 AM....but if it's just a little before 5, I start with my cooking for the day. Sometimes, I catch up with my reading.
I always have this problem for a few days when I visit my parents in Africa (due to the time difference). I fall asleep (can't help it even if I try) by around 4 PM and wake up in the middle of the night. Of course, I have no work to do then...so it's usually a book or a movie that I watch.


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (6960)   ranked 72 out of 37,995 in life  1 year ago

I had this same problem when I travelled to the USA a couple of months ago and would wake up at 3 AM in the morning. The frustrating thing was that by the time I aqctually adjusted to the time difference it was time for me to return to Cairo! lol. At least you are able to make the most of your time and get chores etc out of the way. Thanks for the response and have a great weekend Sandhya. happy


myLot reputation of 91/100. SViswan (4176)   ranked 1,760 out of 37,995 in life  1 year ago

It's the Diwali weekend and I have 5 days off from work!
And guess what I'm going to be doing? Cleaning, of course...lol!
I just can't function with clutter around...and I also tend to hoard stuff....so I need it all organized.
Hope you have a lovely weekend....oops...your weekend was just over...right?


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (6960)   ranked 72 out of 37,995 in life  1 year ago

Happy Diwali! happy It's still before 10 AM so I have the rest of the day left of my weekend thankfully. Try not to clean too much and enjoy the 5 days. happy


myLot reputation of 91/100. SViswan (4176)   ranked 1,760 out of 37,995 in life  1 year ago

Isn't the weekend Thursday-Friday?


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (6960)   ranked 72 out of 37,995 in life  1 year ago

Here the weekend is Friday/Saturday. I think the Thursday/Friday scenario is for Saudi Arabia and some of their neighbouring countries.


myLot reputation of 91/100. SViswan (4176)   ranked 1,760 out of 37,995 in life  1 year ago

Oh that's the first I'm hearing about a Friday/Saturday weekend!
Yes, most Arab countries have a Thursday/Friday weekend.


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (6960)   ranked 72 out of 37,995 in life  1 year ago

I have had enough of a challenge trying to adjust to SUNDAY being the first day of the working week let alone a Saturday! I am looking forward to moving somewhere that has the srandard weekend days because it really does confuse me sometimes and I get all messed up about what day it is! lol.


myLot reputation of 91/100. SViswan (4176)   ranked 1,760 out of 37,995 in life  1 year ago

How long do you intend to stay in Egypt and get confused?
I'm sure you'll move just as I plan my trip to Egypt!
I find i easier to relate to a Thursday/Friday or a Saturday/Sunday weekend.....but a Friday/Saturday weekend sounds funny.


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (6960)   ranked 72 out of 37,995 in life  1 year ago

I have been here a year now and STILL haven't gotten used to these weekend day changes! lol. I expect to be leaving Egypt for the US within the next few months so you had better plan that trip! wink


myLot reputation of 91/100. SViswan (4176)   ranked 1,760 out of 37,995 in life  1 year ago

ok...now I'm going to quit my job and concentrate on mylot...I need all those cents for my trip to meet you.

I go through this very often. And i've noticed it's not much with the sleeping late or getting up early. And it's about an hour or so earlier, not enough time to really get back to sleep. So what do i do. Laze around in Bed, maybe some light exercising or just stroll down the kitchen and make myself a hot cup of tea.


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (6960)   ranked 72 out of 37,995 in life  1 year ago

Lazing around in bed I am not very good at alok! Light exercising is something I should be doing though so I need to maybe consider this next time this happens. Tea sounds good and I have already had a couple of cups of green tea with a slice of lemon this morning! Thanks for the response. happy

Now I know how come Mr. James is active at this hour!
This thing hardly happens with me. For most of the times I go to bed quite late and I get up around 7ish and then rush to get ready. I start from home at around 8. But there are times when I do get up early in the morning and I chat with my mom still lying down. That’s the best time to get family updates. Nothing like listening to new stuffs with intermittent sips of darjeeling tea!


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (6960)   ranked 72 out of 37,995 in life  1 year ago

BTW< how was the traffic today?


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (6960)   ranked 72 out of 37,995 in life  1 year ago

Shut up and the niceties?? Oh so you are one of these people that leads with aggression and then has an immediate conscience mimpi? lol Good to know! No traffic today because of this being a non-work day. Hopefully tomorrow will be quiet on that front too because that few minutes waiting for my turn in the lift can be very stressful.


myLot reputation of 99/100. mimpi1911 (8027)   ranked 129 out of 37,995 in life  1 year ago

It's not that funny. After I posted SP thing I saw your comment...
Appreciate that at least... lol

You better take rest.... wink

well i had the same thing yesterday, woke up 7 AM so i decided to get some fresh breakfast, read my newspaper and enjoyed the morning breeze.
if you wake up up early and found nothing to do, go out and enjoy the morning breeze.


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (6960)   ranked 72 out of 37,995 in life  1 year ago

What if the morning breeze is actually the breath of the screaming words of your fighting next door neighbours? lol Your morning sounds pretty good actually. If I could read Arabic I would probably sit there with a newspaper myself and maybe do the crossword or something. Thanks for the response.

Hello, James!

I hardly ever wake up sooner than I expect when I am home. But it happens. What you say usually happens to me when I have to go to school but there are no classes. I get there and then I realize that there is only one or two classmates. Then I come back home instead of staying, since there will be no classes at all... And when I get home, what to do? Seven in the morning, and I do not want to sleep nor do anything... Then I just sit in the Computer and start using it. lol

Respectfully,
Munhozmib.


myLot reputation of 98/100. James72 (6960)   ranked 72 out of 37,995 in life  1 year ago

Hi munhozmib. This is a rare thing for me actually and I usually have trouble getting up in the morning rather than wake up early. It's a good thing we have computers these days because it seems to be a saving grace for many of us! lol. Thanks for the response. happy
