Are you a night person or a day person-I didn't lock the pol

I am wide awake with the sunrise and start fading quickly when the sun goes down. Winter is BRUTAL for me! Sun up at like 7 and down by 4:30. It's tough!

Most definitely a night person. I always have been and so was my mom. It's not too bad now that I don't have to go to work, but when I had to be there at 6am it about killed me!

It is 12:15 here. Thankfully I don't go into work until 10. It is a four minute drive.

Night. Always have been.

I have ALWAYS been a night person. It's 1:30 and I am still wide awake. But I have struggled with insomnia my whole life so that may be part of it!

Day for sure. I am one of those annoying morning people who roll out of bed and need no time at all to adjust. When the sun goes down, I am pretty much done.

I'm definitely a morning person.

Love,
MorningPerson

I guess I'm more situational. I adjust to whatever best schedule my life calls for at the time.

At this stage, my husband gets up at 5:15 am as he likes to get to work even earlier than the office actually opens. It works best when we both adhere to his schedule (I don't have to be at work until 8:30 or 9:30 when I am working depending on which part-time job it is). So we are early risers and usually head to bed around 10 pm. I wake up cheerful no matter what time and I'm a champion sleeper, so the actual schedule doesn't rally matter to me.

I'm a day person. If I'm not getting up for work, I'm getting up for the puppies. I have to be a day person. DH is a night owl always has been. DS is a early bird and a night owl (drives me nuts!)

My ideal life would run in 5 hour cycles. 5 hours of sleep followed by 5 hours of being awake, repeat.

I go to bed between midnight and 1am and awake by 5:30am.

Day. I'm completely useless after 10 p.m. and often earlier than that. Even when I was young and in school, I could never study late. If I didn't know it by 10:00 in the evening before a test day, I wasn't going to learn it.

The challenge this time of the year is there is so much to do early in the day. I'm eating breakfast now after having walked and showered. If I need to do anything else outdoors, I have to do it in the morning because it gets to hot. And my scraproom in an attic bedroom gets hot later in the day. For me, it isn't that there aren't enough hours in the day, there aren't enough hours in the morning.

And on that note, I'd better get busy.

Good question-I know that my mom is also a morning person, but she will tell me that even as a baby I would wake up early and sit in my crib laughing and babbling until someone came in. My youngest, even as a little guy would regulate his bedtime-if he was tired and I wasn't moving toward bedtime fast enough, he would tell me he was going to bed. Even now, at 17/18 he is in bed by 9 and asleep by 10 and for a teenager, up early (by 9.)

My oldest though has always fought bedtime, would stay up if he could, and sleeps longer. He is 20 and can sleep until well beyond lunch time. Even as a kid he would sleep later than the rest of us and is the single grumpiest person I have ever met when he does get up. 

My ex is definitely not a morning person. And for the most part, he is an early to bed, early to rise kind of guy. I would think that if it was a matter of nurture, the boys would reflect more of their shared experience rather than being the opposite of each other. I think it is more a personality thing.
