I love a quiet morning to myself. There’s hope, light and new beginnings that come with the sunrise and to me, it’s just magical. There’s an entire day spread out before me that is chock-a-block full of possibilities. Or at least I’d like to think there is!
I wasn’t always this way though. I used to love a good stay up at night and still don’t go to bed until after 11pm and wake up around 6ish. But I was a night owl for a long time. I don’t know when it switched – probably in the last few years. Maybe it’s because I’m a middle-aged woman. LOL Or after so many years of mourning the divorce, I’m over it and moving on…
Eithet way, mornings are a joy to me. I don’t want to see the sunrise though. I have no interest in getting out of the house at dawn. Nope. I want to stay in my lounge clothes and savor my hot coffee instead.
I read my emails, go through social media and occasionally write here. Then I begin my day after that hour of transition. It works for me, so that’s what I do.
What about you?

I am a morning person. I usually go to the gym, walk the dog and write. Perfect way to start the day!

Oh I love the way you start your day! I like it! Although personally I’d want to pass on the gym part!

I’m a complete morning person, Janie. That time of day including before sunrise is so peaceful. My mind hasn’t quite ramped up with noise yet and I can enjoy my coffee routine like you. After that I’m off to workout with all the energy! At night I’m crap😃. I’m usually in bed by 8:30.

Oh Dwight! Sounds like a great life to me! Although I’d be hardpressed to be abed by 8:30…too early for me…but then again you’re up before the crack of dawn so it works out! 🙂

I’m a morning person too. By afternoon, my day is shot! I love watching the sunrise from bed. We have incredible views of the sunrise. But I don’t have to get out from under the covers.

I can’t imagine how awesome it is to lay in bed and watch the sunrise from under the blankets! That’s amazing Elizabeth!

I’d consider myself both. I’m grateful to be one of those people who don’t seem to need as much sleep as the average bear. I’m up early and stay up late.
