I Overslept, Big Time

I told hubby I just wanted to try to get warm, cause my arms were uncovered and I told him to turn on the light when he wanted to get dressed. I heard him in the shower, but the next thing I knew, it was after 7:30, and he was gone. The alarm goes off at five. So, to get stuff done I had better get moving. Good morning all my myLot friends.

Good morning. I'm sorry you overslept. I actually did too today. I was supposed to be up at 7am and I didn't get up until 8am! Oops.

My sleeping in was not a big deal. I did not have anything like a job to deal with today. I know I always liked to get up before my kids when they were home though.

I like sleeping in. Not the best thing to do if one is busy but the lure of sleep in a comfy bed beats a lot of things in life!

It is a harmless indulgence, in my opinion.

@allen0187 I am on a break, so no real deadlines for me.

My biological clock wakes me everyday more or less at the same time.

Usually I am awake about a half hour before the alarm. This was very unusual for me to do.

@allknowing Even with sleeping in I got more done than usual at home, because I was more alert.

@GardenGerty Never grudge when your body demands such as extra sleep

I did. Often when I wake up I have a headache. I did at 5, but by 7:30 it was gone. My body just insisted.

Yes, I think I needed it and I almost never do it.

I am usually earlier than my alarm clock when I have an early appointment when I have to go out of the house.

Many days we are awake before the alarm, but today was not one of them.

I have a doctor's appointment at 1:00 this afternoon. I tend to sleep until 11:30, even 12:30 because I don't get to sleep until late and don't sleep well during the night. I went to bed an hour earlier last night in order to be able to get up for my 10:30 alarm (my doctor is an hour away). Well, I was awake at 6am. I got under 5 hours sleep!!! I struggled for awhile but finally got up around 8:30. It always happens. When I know I have to get up early I don't sleep well and am awake much earlier than I need to be.

Hubby claims he turned on the light and got dressed. I must have needed to get that sleep.

obviously your body needed the extra rest. i think most people are responding to this brisk weather to stay warm in bed. lol

Maybe you're too tired and it was warm and cozy. That had happened to me before. Next thing I know it's way past the time I should wake up

It does not happen often, so I must have needed the rest. Usually I have a hard time sleeping. I would like to go back to bed today but I will not be able to.

I really needed the extra rest and I seldom take the time for it. Yes, it gave me some energy to sleep in.

I am sure I did need it, as I felt really good after I got up.

That is all I can figure. Hubby says he turned on the light and got dressed and I never moved.
