Waking Up Early Again

11/06/15

A couple of days ago, at work, I decided I didn't like my wake up just-in-time for my morning meeting system that I had subconsciously accepted and just went with. I wanted to start waking up early again.

As if by magic, I woke up a good 2.5 hours earlier the following day (yesterday). I went from 0800 to 0530. This morning, I woke up at 0330.

I love waking up at 0330. It's pretty wonderful. The only real downside is that it's starting to get cold here in Tucson ("cold") and that temperature shift is really quite powerful in the middle of the night. The middle of the day is quite nice in the 60-70 range, but the middle of the night is currently the 40-50 range.

I will gladly deal with the "cold", though, if it means waking up early again. I'm blogging first thing today! I'll be getting to work before most everyone else, even after doing home chores before going.

I think this sleep schedule will also play a helpful part in fixing my home system. At the very least, waking up earlier means I have firmer control over the scheduling of the day. I don't have to wake up and quickly go to work. I can try out other things.

But today, I think it's time to get ready and go to work.
