Waking up

I always wake up fully wake to my day and all that I have to do the minute I wake up. My husband on the other hand takes five to ten minutes to come alive and respond to the world.
I get up singing and am usually very cheerful in the mornings.
What kind of a waker are you? ( I know that there is no such word LOL)
Do you need your coffee, may be even a smoke to wake up?
Do you need to take a few minutes before you actually are aware of where you are and what time of the day it is?
Do you jump up cheerfully and start planning and doing things right away?
Are you grumpy and wanting to be left alone in the mornings?
How do you wake up?

@wiLLmaH - You said - "...I will kiss my husband then jump out of my bed.." Do you not wait for his return kiss and simply run away ?

@crazyhorseladycx That is quite natural I guess. Most people are grumpy if they have had a rough night.
SO I take it that you are normally cheerful.

As soon as I open my eyes, I am awake. However, I have the cobwebs in my head, until I have had my coffee and smoke. My hubby needs about an hour of alone time, with his coffee and smokes before he will even want to talk to anyone.

@sofssu Yes, i know you well aware of my 'cobwebs'. They are so much a part of me, I couldn't have them leave all together. 
Yes, that he does, he likes to take his time waking up, and like me, he gets in no rush. Yes, we are quite alike in quite a few things. Oh no, that would irk me to no end. I also don't care for 'perky' people.

@TexanTornado So you are a coffee and smokes girl..I know about the cobwebs in the head so hubby needs coffee smokes and alone time... too .. good for you that both are similar. if you had a cheerful chatter box like me around it would get on your nerves I guess.

@Jessicalynnt It takes a coffee pot to really wake you up I guess. Are you cheerful?

When the mobile alarm clock goes, I would press the snooze button twice or thrice, before I stretch my legs and arms and come out of bed during week days. However, during weekends, when I want to sleep, my sleep gets disturbed and I tend to get up early.

@dpk262006 LOl taht only means your body clock is working perfectly. So you need three reminder to wake up and get into action eh.. So you are one of those people who start a bit slow.

@dpk262006 That is because on working days you are physically tired and need more sleep.. on weekends you are relaxed and well rested.

I wake up at the same time every day I need however to stretch a little before getting up. My muscles get a bit stiff but once I start walking all is well.

@allknowing So you sound like a morning person.. I guess it is just a physical issue with you.. from what I have read of your posts I assume you are a cheerful morning person

I setted up two alarm clock every morning except the Sunday morning. When the first alarm sounded, I will wake up from sleeping but the mind is still not very clear. I'll stay a few minutes in bed. When the second sounded, I have to get up~

I like to linger over my breakfast, so I guess I'm a bit slow in the morning, but sometimes I start doing little chores as I make my way to the kitchen.

@HebrewGreekStudies Good to hear that you are a morning person. A cup of coffee is good but smoke is a great thing for your lungs on those beautiful mornings.
