Early Bird or Night Owl

[oldlongwalker]

I'm up at 5am just about every day. Can't recall the last time I used an alarm clock. Wife is up at 8. We are usually in bed about 8:30 and I nod off while she watches tv.

Night owl. My natural schedule is sleep at 5 am, wake at 1 pm, not human until 5 pm.

I followed this whenever possible until my mid-50s. Then I turned my schedule around because of work. I still hate mornings though!

I go to bed between 11pm and midnight, often wake around 4 or 5, if I can’t get back to sleep I make a warm drink, read or go online for an hour or so, usually settling back down until 8 or 9 am

Early bird. I'm up at 6 am most mornings. I feel like I slept late if I get up at 7.

A life-long night owl, have become an early-riser. When it changed, I can't recall. A couple of years, perhaps.

 

[LadyEmeraude]

Mostly both lol. I am often in bed by 9:30 pm and up at 6am. Other times
am in bed at 11:00 pm and up at 7am.

Night owl, but I can get up early if necessary.

Like @Pinky...I'm a life long night owl... and like @jujube despite being a night owl, if I need to get up early I can.. .I don't like it but I can..

Night owl...

 

[CallMeKate]

I wake up between 1:30 and 3:00 no matter when I go to bed... it's horrid... but since staying up later doesn't change that, I try to be asleep by 9:30 or 10 and earlier if possible.

Fairly early for a retired person, but depends on how well I sleep.

I retired in 2022 and before that, I would usually be up at 6 in the morning. Now the earliest I wake is 9 in the morning. I am much more the night owl going to bed between 11 p.m.and midnight.

Also a 5 AM here, farm country most of my life, with chores. And I do enjoy a sunrise with my coffee. No longer farming but the dogs are early birds too.

 

[Moon Rat]

Asleep by 11 and up by 2 or 3 am.

I go to bed between 11 and 12 and get up between 8 and 8 30.....
i normally get woken a few times a night , so its a broken sleep

When I was in my 20's could stay up until midnight or longer, those days are long gone
I'm a nearly bird, I get up anywhere between 6-6:30am,get dressed and go take my 1st walk of the day before breakfast
I now go to bed around 10,some nights I can sleep through,others I wake up around 3 go back to sleep
