omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Morning all. Still not used to being a morning person. Stupid hospital causing new "habits". Hey, at least no chest x-ray happening right now. Tried going back to sleep, but heart rate is high (90's). To be fair (and not cause concern on y'all's part), that is *low* compared to before. Upon entering the hospital my heart rate was 130 sitting in a chair. And most of the time it was in the 110's. So. Progress. Just. Not enough to fall back to sleep at 5am. Le sigh. Morning person it is. Hopefully Mom is still sleeping. She had a nasty cough during the night. And hey, I can always have an excuse for a nap!!

Our wings are not tired.

Good morning! I changed to a morning person at some point, much to my shock and dismay. Now I find it a nice quiet time before the crazy noisy busy day. Thing with getting up super early is that I am nodding off by about 9.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I am not a morning person. I have cats.

I have cats and a financial assessment at work that starts at 10 am. Before that will be complete, I have to leave to accompany someone to a medical appointment. And then I work direct care until 11pm.

And tomorrow morning I have to be on the road by 7 am for training out of town.

I am not a morning person. ltc is so far very much a morning person and an extrovert.

Even when I wake up early, I am pretty useless in the morning. The only time I have been productive in the morning, I was wired with anxiety and sleeping no more that 3-4 hours a night. While I will probably never be so productive again, overall it was hell.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

o_a, naps are always good. And hi!

I'm usually up and functioning at 5:30 a.m., but gods help you if you want to make conversation.

I'm kind of a morning person. But I like spending it having multiple cups of coffee and petting a cat on my lap. So it's not like it's a terribly useful habit.

I'm glad the heart rate is getting a bit more manageable, Omnis.

Our wings are not tired.

There is always so much noise and activity and crazy in my day that I developed the habit of getting up early and relishing the quiet and calm. I used to sit outside and listen to the birds while drinking my coffee, but now I tend to catch up on the internet. I think maybe I should go back to sitting outside in my jammies in the early morn.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

o_a, naps are most excellent. I could use one right now myself.

I can usually fake being a morning person as needed, but I'm much more of a night owl.

Tomorrow I'm really going to have to fake it. My flight back to Denver should get me home around midnight, then it typically takes me an hour to wind down before I can really sleep (night owl). Then I have to be in the office and AWAKE by 8am for a meeting with my new manager. We will only have 30 minutes to meet before she has other meetings and then I'll likely drive back home to do my real work from home.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

I am 100% a morning person. Unashamedly so. I woke up at 4:30 without an alarm today (it's not a gym day for me) and got some work done. Early is better for me. But by 6:00 PM, I'm done thinking.
