In the early morning before the dawn

I have been a morning person for a long time.  I rarlely need to set an alarm.  My mother (was) and brother (is).  Truth to tell I enjoy waking up a little before everyone else and having my coffee and getting my head together.  Until now.

I got Covid 19 in November.  I slept a lot.   Like 12 hours a day.  When I got better I started waking up at 5 AM.    That is just too early.   It 3 to 4 hours earlier than the workday starts.   My pets like it.   I refuse to feed them before 6:30 AM.  If I ever can sleep again I don't want them waking me up and expecting food at 5 AM.  There are a lot of things going on.  My brother is sick with cancer.  The down side of this is I go to sleep around 9 PM every day.  

The early morning is very peaceful.  I can have a nice chat with my brother (on the east coast).  I can communicate with my former client in Dubui.  The dog and the cats are very happy I am up and snuggle with me.  My dog is sleeping next to me on the couch. 

I go through my email, Facebook, calendar.  I play some game on my phone.  I look up.  Is it 6:30 AM?  Can I feed the cats?  I have started blogging in the early morning.  I think about the day to come.  Today I have  a cake in the oven for my youngest son's 28th birthday.  I wll do the dishes.  Around 8 I will take a shower and get dressed.  Today I go to the office for a meeting.  I could Zoom the meeting.   That is probably safer but I had Covid.  I am not to worried.  

It is quiet and peaceful in the early morning. 

P.S. Early morning person seeks chat buddy from Europe.

I love the quiet of the early morning. After 30 years of ARRIVING at work by 6 a.m., it is wonderful to watch a sunrise in the Ozarks (except for the Green Polar Vortex that hit us).

Hello Debbie - I have long been an early riser as well and I enjoy that before-sunrise-feel.   I am sorry to hear about your brother and hope he is on the road to a full recovery.

I enjoy waking up early as well and I naturally wake up between 5 and 6 a.m. every morning without an alarm.  Of course, I am also going to sleep between 9 and 10 p.m. every night so I think once I get my 7 hours of sleep then my body is just ready to wake up and it does.  I feel more productive when I am able to work without being bothered by others, so it helps if they are asleep, haha.

Hi Debbie- I am an early riser...always have been. I love the "me" time even when we're still in bed and I'm checking email, etc on my phone.
