Drop the attitude Sleep

I am grumpy at 5 in the morning. Well, now it is 5:30. I have been up since 4:30. Maybe I should just say I am grumpy in the morning.

Why am I up?

Do I have a job to go to?  No.

Am I up to start on wifely duties like making bread from scratch so it is warm and ready by the time my hubby wakes up?  ha. no.  (For the record, I have never made bread and don't know that I ever will.)

Do I have some giant and exciting plans waiting for me?  Nope. There is a desk waiting for a final coat of paint and a shirt waiting for some more stitches. I do not think either necessitates being up before the sun.

Am I up this early to piously commune with the Lord?  No. Seeing as the answer to my 1st question was no, I really have the luxury of waiting until a more holy time of day.  (meaning a time where the sun is up!)

So............... why am I up?

I am up because normal sleep and I are rarely friends.  I actually like sleep. I enjoy its company. Apparently the feeling is not mutual.  Thankfully, this past week sleep and I have gotten along fairly well...until now. 

Since I have no job, it isn't a big deal not to sleep normally.  It was more of a problem when I had to work at 7 and instead of waking up "early" at 4:30 I was waking up at 2:30. Now, I can just go back to bed whenever I happen to feel tired again. I was hoping that today, the back to bed would be sooner rather than later, but it feels like I will be up for at least a little longer. I am holding out until 6 to make coffee and breakfast.  Almost there!!!!!!!

Sweet Sleep
