If I drink a lot of coffee the night before, I'll be up by 5:00am the next day. If I have a big bowel of popcorn the night before, the salt retains water and I'll sleep in until 6:00 or 7:00

Up between 5:30 and 6:00 most days. Throw some wood in the stove, sit on my throne in the bathroom eat a pill for the ticker then a bottle of water and a dry bowl of cheerios to keep the cholesterol down.

4:30 to 6:00 Depends when the baby decides she's hungry. My wife gets up with her during the night so I get the early morning duty. It's my favorite time of the day. She goes from fussing because she's hungry to a great big smile as soon as you walk in her room. Makes my day every morning. She usually takes her bottle and falls asleep for a short nap. This is when I run out and fill the OWB.

5:15 every morning. read the Bible,pray,eat breakfast, then go to basement to refire the riteway----ah the warmth-and quietness---instead of the furnace banging in every 10 minutes--

Olyman-- that is a great way to start the day!

Mine begins at 4AM. Pray, spend some time in The Word, feed a few splits into the wood stove, and just enjoy some quiet time before work, or whatever may be planned for the day.

Yep, God is Good! :bowdown:

Workdays, between 4:30 and 5 depending on how bad I think traffic's gonna be.

Weekends, normally between 7-8. Days when I'm catching up on lost sleep like today, 10ish.

When I worked 3:30-2AM, noon or thereabouts was standard wakeup time. That schedule made deer season a pretty miserable experience though.

Usually around 9 ish (P.M.)

3rd shift y'know?

I've been on the first trick to cover for the Holidays the last few weeks.

I seem to get up about 4;00 A.M. here lately.

Guess I'm getting old, and scared I may miss something.:buttkick:

Nothing like being up & listening/watching to a new day being born & coming to life. An old timer once told me that he got up early....

'cuss iffen he was going to loaf he wanted to get a full day in'. ;)

5-530am

When I am home I get up 5-530 am, spend some time with the Bible and in prayer, go fool with the OWB, 9 year old daughter is up by 6 and we eat breakfast, 13 year old is up by 6-630 when he has his quiet time with the Lord and finally bring my lovely wife a cup of coffee about 730am.

When I am out of town on business I am up at 530 and working by 6-630 (quiet time is done in the evenings).
