Default Getting up in the Morning

Do you find it easy and jump out of bed when your alarm goes off or do you keep snoozing it till the very end?

No matter how much sleep I've had I find it so hard to get up every morning, bed is so cosy and warm and lovely

Don't need an alarm.
Years of having a Staffie have trained me to wake around 6am to 6.30am automatically.

Once awake, I cannot get back to sleep anyhow.

I snoozed my alarm til 8.10am a couple of days back. Then spent 20 minutes headless chickening and feeling ready to have a heart attack as we have to leave house by 8.30am and there was clothes to sort, kids to feed and clean, endless crap to be found, packed lunches to do...

I know how stressful it makes it as have done it before many times. Yet still always snooze

It's so annoying how no matter which way you turn in the morning every position is the most cosy, comfortable place in the whole world (and when you get into bed you could be tossing and turning forever to get comfortable) Luckily for me, I only have to worry about getting myself ready these days though

Always could get up when I had to.
Nowadays I don’t normally get out of bed until between 10 and 11.30, depending on what kind of night I have had and if the grand dog is happy to stay in bed.
Daughter drops him off about 7 am and he goes straight in his basket at the side of my bed.

Yes. Basically roleplaying some torture chamber situation where you cant get comfy then get cramp finding a position when trying to get to sleep, tossing and turn for ages on your spiky rock. Then as soon as the alarm shouts, its like you are lying on a mattress made of the very finest clouds god has to offer

Always set my alarm early and then I like to lie in for 10mins thinking of the day ahead...
When I had to get up at 3am for an early shift I would have to get straight out of bed because I would be so tired that the thought of a pultry 10 min snooze would piss me off...

I swing more to the second option but I work nights so it’s a bit different for me. I think on off-days I tend to wake up fairly early naturally but I still set 20 alarms just in case (when there’s something important I need to do that morning). And I snooze through a lot of them.

Lots of tossing and turning through the night, as Vicky said, ruddy cramps and uncomfortable bed, until it’s time to get up of course.

I'm an early riser.

I got to bed at 10pm. I often wake between 1am and 4am.

If it's 1am I struggle to get to sleep, although I might manage a couple of hours.

If it's 4am I just stay awake. Not worth lying there.

Get up straight in the shower and then immediately have breakfast 7 days per week

then you are ready for the day and what you have to do.

No lounging about in pajamas in your own fetid stench

Man here thinks LeatherTrumpet should be banned from commenting in threads like this.

No one’s interested in his mega-capitalistic, every day-grind-and-hustle at stupid o’clock narrative.
