Yes, I know it's early

It's 7 am, and yes I am awake. No I'm not quite sure why I am. I mean, I do usually wake up around this time but I go right back to sleep instead of getting up. Except today, I decided I'd go ahead and get a head start on the day. I think today requires coffee though, so I'd better get to that. *looks around at all the 'lotters I don't usually get to see since I wake up around 8:30 (I'm up about an hour and a half earlier than usual)

I went grocery shopping in Italy very early this morning, before the heat and before the heavy traffic. We already had lunch here, it's almost 1:30 p.m.

I turned on my phone a few minutes after I woke and looked at what my weather app said. It said it was already too hot but I thought that couldn't be right, I refreshed the app and it's only about 70 degrees at the moment, It's still going to be a pretty warm day.

what are the things on the list you need to finish within the day?

There is nothing I necessarily need to finish, and in fact I could have a relaxed day. I did do some work yesterday, and I've done some this morning. I've thought about just relaxing for the most part, and spending some time on mylot. Tomorrow I need to get back to the daily grind.

I woke up around 9:30 yesterday morning. My norm is usually 8:00 am to nearly 9 am. I'll probably end up going to bed slightly early because of being awake.

@ScribbledAdNauseum I teach the English language.

@Shavkat Oh I see. I watch a couple of youtubers who used to live in China, they were expats from the US and from South Africa. When they first came to China, they taught English but they said that it wasn't a high paying job. One worked in a university and so got paid more than the other, but they still weren't paid much.

Oh, I hope you enjoy your teaching session. What are you teaching?

You need a caffeine jolt to get going.

I actually didn't. I decided to play a video game for a few hours instead, but I did still earn a little bit of money, and the day is not yet over.

@JustBhem I got online at 7 am (7 pm your time) and was on mylot for a few minutes before I did some of my other sites. I got offline a few hours later and then played a game until about 3:30. Now I'm back online and trying to earn a few more cents here.

I always wake up early, but if I try to get up early..I will just get sleepy so I catch a few more zzzzs.

I will probably crash around 9:30 to 10 o clock tonight, which isn't so bad. I usually go to sleep by 10:30 or 11. I like going to bed about that time but friends of mine are usually still awake around that time. If I am spending the weekend with them, I end up going to bed at 1 am and somehow waking up at 7.

I am an early riser and so 7 is too late for me. It's evening here now.

The earliest I rise is 6 Am, unless I need to be somewhere and then sometimes it's even earlier than 6.

I say get a cup of coffee and get that caffeine in you to help wake you up and start your day. I always enjoy a cup of coffee first thing in the morning then I start my day.

I don't drink coffee very often at all, and I didn't end up drinking any coffee at all today. I actually prefer iced coffee more than anything else. I need to find a coffee that's healthier to be honest, coffee and me don't exactly mix which is why I don't drink it often.

That's a little early for me too. I usually get online in the evening when I have everything done for the day. Then I usually sew or read before I go to bed.

I am online at various times of the day. I got online for a few hours, then got offline and am now back online. Usually I am on from 8 am until around 11 or 12, then I take a bit of a break. Since I earn a living by things I do online, I have to be online. However, I am trying to make more of a concscious effort to take a break.

@RubyHawk I agree, I want to get through those notifications as quickly as possible but that's not always what happens. I try to make any excuse to get up and walk around, even if it's just to go down the hall and come back. It's good to let those joints move.

@Nickzter1331 I love sleeping, but I'm also not too hard to wake up. In fact, if I have plans, I'm usually the first to wake up, even if the other people I have plans with are sleeping in.

@sophie09 It's whatever I want it to be. A couple of hours here and there, a few hours of break. I could work until 4 am and sleep until 2 pm if I wanted. I usually wake up at 8:30 and go to bed by 11 pm. I'm usually not online earning past 9 pm though.
