I don't mean what time do you get up, but when do you feel the day has officially begun?
For me, it's after I brush my teeth! I take as long as possible over breakfast, having multiple cups of tea, usually I'm on TCS. I put off brushing my teeth because then I have to get on with the day and get going.
Anyone here a "get up and go" kind of person?
I always shake my head in wonder when I drive by all the people out jogging at 6 am. Don't they know they could be snuggled up in bed with a cuddly cat instead?

I have a huge cup of coffee and a smoke. I'm not rational before then, and DH knows not to talk to me. My only language at that point is a grunt.

As soon as i see sunlight.

This is why i get so drowsy at work, but thats because i dont have tea or coffee in the mornings
and i realised that the energy drinks arent working!

Gosh I don't thin I could handle working nights. Mind you, sleeping all day with the cats sounds good!
In the summer when I have to get up at 5 something am, I want to cry. It's alwys so hard to get out of bed.
Today, I'm on my 5th cup of tea already! I think it's going to be a lazy Saturday with lots of TCS time.

.....I have had a coffee and a cig or 3
Then Michaela charges down the stairs full of life expecting me to be full of life too. You would think at 10 she would know by now that its not going to happen.
I get at 8am and wake up at 9ish.

My day really starts once I shower & go to the usps.
I get up, process orders & emails, & then I get ready (shower) around 2pm to go get the packages & mail them.
After that, I feel my day has started.

I am NOT a morning person... AT ALL! DH knows to stand at the bedroom door or at least 10 feet away when it's time to wake me up

My day starts after a cup of coffee and a cigarette. Then it's time to wake the kids up and the battle begins.......
.... and my day

DixieDarlin - you have to wake the kids up?! Isn't it usually the other way round? Many moms would envy you!

Chaunte - A 2 pm "start" seems like a nice sleep in. I'm guessing you work late though.

For some reason this thread reminded me of my dear friend and her 3 sisters. They all used to have body image issues when they were teens, and would absolutely refuse to so much as answer the door before they had full make-up on. Glad they've all gotten over it!

We get up at 6am every morning. They usually sleep in from watching TV late at night

My day starts when I walk into the kitchen to make coffee and 12 hungry cats surround me, meowing at the top of their lungs until I feed them.
