Summer time and no pressing schedule. So I stay up too late. Then I sleep late in the morning. It was 7:30 a.m. when I got up. Gasp!! When I go to bed early, like 9 pm. I lay awake forever it seems. Today I will go out for a...

I am off to work

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (169568) • United States 18 Mar 24

I woke up a half hour early. So I was ready early. Knowing I should have gotten more sleep, I sat in my chair with my eyes closed for a half hour. It was a challenge. I did not trust that my alarm would go off. So now the car is...

As usual

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (169568) • United States 6 Aug 22

Today is Saturday. I did not set an alarm and my plan was to sleep in. That did not happen. As usual I was awake at 5 a.m. It does not matter that I stayed up a little late last night. My mind and body are so accustomed to...

I thought the clock said 4:54

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (169568) • United States 19 Nov 21

When I do not have my glasses on and it is dark it is easy to misread a clock. I got up, because it was "almost 5" Nope. It was actually 4:04. So I have done a load of wash and eaten breakfast. I am dressed. I went out to the...

Very Long Day

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (169568) • United States 11 Jan 21

Between 3 and 4 a.m. my husband discovered what he believed to be an emergency. We got up, got dressed, and went to the Wichita VA Emergency Room. It was more of an unfortunate problem than an emergency. Meanwhile, I was texting...

I woke up too early

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (169568) • United States 22 Oct 20

I am dragging now. Very tired, and it is not even 7 a.m. Hubby got up too, which means I could not sit in the dark and rest my eyes. Since my son has the truck, hubby wanted to drive me to the bus stop. I could walk, it is not...

My body did not believe it was Saturday

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (169568) • United States 7 Dec 19

I have been awake since 4:40 this morning. My body thought I needed to get up for work. I have stayed home all day, though. In some ways I work harder here at home. I also play harder, though, so I guess it evens out. Early...

Coffee and the kitty

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (169568) • United States 25 Feb 17

We get up at 5 a.m. during the week, and we could sleep in on Saturday, and Sunday. We could sleep in except for the need for coffee, and for the opinion of our kitty. So, we got up at 5:30, and made coffee. I made breakfast, and...

Tokz @ilocosboy (45155) • Philippines 1 Jun 16

It's a habit now, after waking up, mixing my kind of coffee, sip and sit a while. And after all the coffee is consumed, get the scythe and do some physical workout in the backyard. Pulling and cutting off those bushes and grasses...

Are you an early-to-bed type of person or are you the nocturnal type? I always decide to retire early to bed, but invariably end up sleeping only after 1 am, even if I have nothing to do. It's kinda become a habit for me now....
