Im on a high until lunchtime. its a buzz to be alive.
Afternoons are the opposite. The negatives start asserting themselves and i feel gradually depleted and depressed. who me depressed? not clinically. just middlin.
the nature of my posts will vary .....😡😢😁😁
 

When I was in my late teens,early 20's I had no problem sleeping in maybe past 9am,those days are long gone
After I retired,it took me 6-8months not to get up at 5:30am the 3 days I had to go to work
I am a morning person,during these summer months,the birdies wake me up anywhere between 5:30-6am,trying to get back to sleep sometimes happens
I usually start to wind down after dinner,do NYT crossword puzzle,read my book.I've found lately I'm taking a little 'snooze' in my recliner before I go to bed usually around 11:30 pm

I'm a morning person. The world appears fresh and new then, the air is cooler and sweet, birds sing, and people are not as much about to noisily crowd and push...
 
I'm a whatever time I get up type of person I guess. Getting going involves coffee and cold water. I try not to stress too much over things and get myself annoyed at times but then bounce back. I usually do it by saying something to myself like @#$% it!
 
I really get rolling after my 2 eggs and coffee which I have about 9:30 as long as my knees are cooperating. Once I get going I can go almost until dinner time. If the hubby didn't want lunch I wouldn't even stop to eat. What stops me dead is the heat and humidity even with central air I'm still dripping. Looking forward to fall.
 
I am not now, nor have I ever been, a morning person. One of the things I like best about retirement is that I do not have to get up before the rooster crows anymore. I HATE getting up in the dark!
