NOT a morning person!

Two mornings this week I was awakened early to the sound of an alarm...and as beautiful as the rising sun looked outside my bedroom window, I would have preferred a few more hours of ZZZZs! I am definitely not a morning person. It's my norm to stay up until 1:30 or 2 a.m., so 7 a.m. comes way before I'm ready to get up. On all of my PBase web pages, you'll only find one gallery that shows the dawn. For the past 37 years I've lived one and a half blocks from a huge lake that faces east and has stunningly beautiful sunrises. Back in my running days I used to see them on a regular basis, but since then? Nada. Well, except for the one time I got up early to take photos of the dawn. CLICK HERE to see my "Frosty Morning Sunrise" gallery.

This morning (Saturday) was one of those early mornings, so tonight I am early to bed. We had a wonderful monthly gathering of our women's singing community, and as one of the planners, I had to be in Windsor, Ontario by 9:30 a.m. I didn't get back home until 8:30 p.m. after a l-o-n-g wait in the tunnel getting back into the States. Oh my, that bed is going to feel good...

Now at least you don't have to get up early to see the sunrise. More of a challenge in June and July. It's still the best time of day by far, I think.

Excellent placement of the sun.

Beautiful light!! I am a morning person and often walk at sunrise - love that time of the day.
Hope you recovered from your early mornings....
Best, Meggi

I'm definately a morning person yet i tend to stay up too late too, but then just get a nap in when I can!

A very nice picture, Patricia! I really admire you can stay up until 1:30 PM. I believe it's enjoyable.

LOL! I think there are two categories of people where sleep is concerned: larks and owls. Welcome to the Owls'Club!
