It's the school holidays.
The alarm is off.
I'm still waking at 6am.
I'm more productive in the mornings than afternoon and evenings, although I do have a flurry of activity just before bed.
I've always woken early and I do enjoy the peace and quiet of a cup of tea, sitting in my happy place outside, regardless of the weather.
6am on a Friday before work.
6am on a campsite.
6am in bed.
No matter how hard I try to stay in bed, I'm awake by 6am most mornings. But as it's summer I'm not so worried about it, because the first thing I do, is make tea, feed the cat and go sit outside with my laptop or phone.
Most of my blog posts are written at 6am. It's rare to read a book and normally I just flick through social media on my phone.
Sometime I wake earlier and just stay in bed for a while hoping I'll go back to sleep, but the traffic noises keep me awake, vans pulling up with engines running and the occasional tooting of a horn to hurry their workmate up for his lift to work and car doors banging.
Are you an early riser? Do you have a time of the day where you get more done?
I like a morning as long as I wake up naturally without the pesky alarm clock. I have been waking up at around 8am and I am happy with that. I am not a morning person, I am more of a night owl.
ReplyDeleteI'm exactly the same as you, 6 am on the dot no matter the time of year. I've always been a morning person, I like the peace and quiet first thing. I love your bookmark!
ReplyDeleteSorry for accepting your post so late, luckily some of my readers have popped along anyway. I'm like you, up at the same time every morning, alarm or not. I wouldn't mind a lie-in but I do enjoy a bit of peace and quiet too.
ReplyDeleteThere's something quite nice about the stillness and calm of an early morning, especially in summer when it's already light (6am is not so nice in the winter!) Nice to sit outside with a cup of tea first thing too. I'm generally more productive in the mornings as well.
