Friday OT: Rooster or Owl
- Thread starter Angie
- Start date
Will have to check it out!
By Wordle, what I really mean is I do it and Quordle, Quordle Sequence, Octordle, Octordle Sequence, Blossom, Daily Wordscapes, and Daily Sudoku, depending on how soon I think I can get to sleep. About then, dog decides he wants out.
My oldest brother goes to bed and 8:00 and gets up at 3:30-4:00. Sometimes he calls me at maybe 5:00 am after he’s worked out.
I have always been a night person, even when I was forced into being a day person because of some factory jobs I had when I was younger where I had to be ready to work at 7 a.m. Luckily, the last 30 or so years of my work life, I worked second shift and didn't have to show up until after noon.

Sedecordle is my go to
I can do/be both. I prefer to go to bed early and wake up early. But I don't sleep much at night anyway, so I will get up between 6 and 730 every morning, regardless of what time I go to bed.
I like to read 10pm-11:30pmish -I could easily sleep til noon or later, always a struggle getting up in the AM and working out-must have 8 hrs sleep or I'm no good
When I can't sleep, I lay there and wonder about the process of falling asleep and how it works. That usually kills a few hours.
As a kid during summer vacation I would gradually stay up later at night and get up later in the morning. By the time school started it was going to bed about 3AM and 10:30 or 11:00 AM getting up.
Working forced me to get up early. Originally had to be at work at 5:00AM 4 days per week and 7:00AM the other.
College was close to the same.
Back at work after college and it was the same but not quite as early. But I still had an hour commute. Often on Fridays I would come home, eat and be in bed by 8:00 PM after a tough week.
I always figured once I retired I'd naturally go back to what I did when I was young. But in reality I generally go to bed between 11 and 12 and get up between 7 and 8. I do get naps most days which I limit to 1 hour max.

I'm a night owl for sure. Ideally I'd go to bed at midnight or so and wake up at 8. Tough to do with a normal 8-5 job
Morning person here. I’m mid 40s w 4 kids, 10 and under. The mornings are my only “me time.”
Under normal routine/schedules I’m asleep by 9:30pm and awake at 5am with no alarm.

Yes. Two below the age of 10 but they sleep until about 8 on weekends.
