One of the reasons old people often take naps, is we wake up at 4:30 am wide awake. I hope Santa was good to everyone and you have a healthy/happy 2024.

This is scary. I, too, woke up about that time, and got on up to beat all the grands down. Broom, not so much, but she’ll be down soon, too. Merry Christmas!!!

making all kinds of noise getting my hot joe ready, then right outside on the porch for an hour.
When asked by a relative why so early, my reply, "Cause that gives me an excuse for an afternoon nap unless I'm working!" lol

I usually wake up between 5 and 6. Lay there for a little while then get up about 6:15-6:30. Today the grands didn’t get up until about 7:30 so had plenty of time for a cup of coffee. During hunting season I was getting up at 3:30 because I have a pretty long drive to where I hunt. I set an alarm for 3:30 and was awake before it went off every time.

I used to be in bed by 9:30 when I was getting up at 5:30 for work. Now we stay up later - maybe 10:00 or 10:30. 😜

During the summer I’m up at 4:00, shower have a cup of coffee and some breakfast and then I head off to the golf course, provided I haven’t had some doctor issue like a procedure that they think is necessary.
By the way, who are you calling old, lol. Only 75 so still a youngster!!!

Lol, we’re not exactly old, but we go to bed at nine every night and get up at five every morning. Not the schedule a lot of people would like, but it’s what we do. On the weekends we usually been up 4 hours by the time our teenage kids get up.

I’m 54. If I have to get up before 6 I feel physically ill for the first 45-60 minutes. Nauseous…body aches. Have always been that way…and doesn’t matter whether I go to bed early or not. Always envied those who can get up so early and function…I guess some are just built different. Really hoping I never lose my ability to sleep until 8-9 without waking…but I’m sure it’ll happen at some point.

I'm an old people too and 3am is my normal bedtime. Up at 7:30-8:30am. And I hate naps. Only take on occasionally on Sunday and only if I've been up until 5:00am working on my Sunday School lesson. Yeah, if I'm up at 4:30am, that means I haven't been to bed yet.

LOL, I usually fall asleep watching TV anywhere around 9:30 to 11:00 pm, I will wake up usually every morning around 3:00am to 4:00am, and then I'm up all day until my usual fall asleep time between 9:30 to 11:00, and that has been my asleep and awake routine for the past 20 years. My wife tells everybody that I'm scared that I will miss something, and that's the reason I don't anymore than 4 to 5 hours a day. But I've always heard that a persons body knows how much sleep that needs, and mine is good with 4 to 5 hours...

F that. If I’m not working I’m sleeping in until anywhere between 10am and noon and it’s GLORIOUS. Nothing like being in your cozy bed doing absolutely nothing. On work nights I stay up anywhere between 11pm and 1am and if I’m not working I’m up till 2 or 3am. I’m 35.
