Now that classes have finished I have no more 9AM starts, though I have to go into the Faculty this week for student consultations, exam preparations, marking etc. You would think that I would relish the extra hour or so this gives me in the mornings! But every morning so far I have been up before 6 AM, far earlier than on a normal class day, making tea, cleaning up, getting online, even doing packing ready for my final departure. Does anyone else have this problem of getting up earlier when you DON'T have to? I just don't seem able to stay in bed, even reading. The cats love it of course - they get breakfast earlier, except for Dushka, who stayed on my bed till 8 AM this morning, as if to set me an example!
