Are you a morning or afternoon person?

[Suej]

I get up in the morning around 9am and feel half asleep until at least 11am and cannot cope with any rushing around until lunchtime! come 10pm at night I´m wide awake and start doing jobs around the house I´m sure I could sit up all night reading a book! Are you the same? or up at the crack of dawn and raring to go but like to be in bed by 10 or 11pm! I hope this post makes sense because it´s still very early for me!:zzz:

[YOUNG GOLFER]

With two kiddies it's Morning Afternoon and Evening....

But have to say i love the evening times the best.

[cainaries]

Same as you, Suej. Sometimes here I seem to be sleepy all day and only really wake up when the sun goes down. (This sounds a bit ominous now I think about it). Very occasionally I wake up bright and early and get lots of chores done. I wish it happened more often.

Im probably more of a morning person as im up at 7 o'clock everyday, and i seem to be on the go all day, then about 4 oclock i can literally have a cat-nap of 2 or 3 minutes and then im fully charged of energy again, i dont really go to bed till after 11.30. so on the whole i think im an all-rounder:wink2::wink2::wink2:

Thank god I thought it was just me ! Been off a week and all I am doing is sleeping ! I was beginning to think what a waste but if the body needs rest then rest it is.

When at work I'm up 6.20 and not back til 18.10 then you start again with dinner and washing etc.

I have to say I'm enjoying all the silly daytime programmes - bit of a novelty when you don't normally see them. Gino and Mel's lunchtime is funny - love his accent. Mind you think I will get fed up soon !

Shame the weather isn't so good - if that sun were to poke it's head out be on the balcony like that !

Thanks C and SueJ... what does that old bird Zara reckon and SusieF

We all know what Max is like (when in good health):D

The reason I asked is because sometimes I look at posts at the crack of 11am to see that some have been posted at like 4 or 5am!!! now I know people might work that late, but then you see some that post at 6am in the morning! LOL!

[sunspot]

I am a afternoon person,i take 2 coffees and 3 ciggies befor im ready for any conversation then after work i have to chillout again for another couple of hours.
Hubby gets up early and is wide awake almost as soon as he gets out of bed...............i just wish he would shut up first thing in the morning

[bonitatime]

I tend to be a morning person although when I was young I worked nights so I guess I could go back to that. i would need some blackout curtains though as I wake just before ut gets light. This played havok with my body in England this summer.

I'm definitely a night owl, irrespective of my health... I'm an absolute git in the mornings and could easily murder people. I need at least 3 cups of tea and half a pack of marlboro before I can be civil to anybody. Actually, nearly all the major rows I've had during my life have come about because somebody bugged me in the morning...

I should have a health warning tattooed on my forehead, warning people that if they talk to me before I'm ready, I'm likely to inflict serious harm on them... :D

Afternoon person!
Get lots done between 12pm and 4pm and lots done after 7pm. Terrible in the mornings, feel tired until midday.

I believe the term you're looking for is awkward bugger.... :D

I'm a definite evening person - takes a pound of semtex to get me out of bed in the morning. Partly due to working evenings, always need a couple of hours to wind down before bedtime..

Seriously does it wake you up? If so, I then need something that puts you to sleep!!!

As you know I am a very bad sleeper but I'm still like a kid really. If I've got something exciting to do I jump straight out of bed and I'm wide awake. Mind you if I've got something exciting to do, I can't sleep either!!! The only thing that would get my OH jumping out of bed would be if a very young version of Bridget Bardot was knocking on his door to get in!!! :) oh and a race meeting to get to.

I used to have a Hillman Imp car and that had ankle straps.:wow:

I had better explain,they were really grab handles that hung over both doors, but my wife (girlfriend at the time) was gullible and believed me.

My second car was a Hillman Imp - cylinder head gasket went and my dad said it was the way I drove it!!! I didn't find out until year's later that it was probably to do with the aluminium bloc!! By the way my first car at 17, was an A40 - now plenty of room in that ;)

Those Hillman Imps were VERY well named. Mine broke down in the middle of Hammersmith Broadway on a rainy November Friday rush hour. One of those 'I'll hoot your horn, you drive my car' opportunities. It wasn't a morning or afternoon car, that's for sure.

[Sal]

Has this thread gone a little off topic? I am definitely a morning person - can get so much done, but by afternoon I want some me time.

Never had a Hillman Imp, but had a Hillman Minx and a Hillman Hunter - both good reliable cars!

Mine was kind of punk purple! Horrible car.

Yes, Sal, we've gone off topic but Suej probably won't mind :D:devil2:

I can't usually even work out which day it is for quite a while but .. first car was TCR 534 (nice Southampton reg for Ed3229).

Cos of circumstance I am an all day person.

Sometimes I go to bed at 7 in the morning so am grumpy at 12.

Sometimes bed at midnight, grumpy at 7

Sometimes bed at 4 in the afternoon, grumpy now.

All said, I think grumpiness can be equated with jet lag. (Something I have never quite understood)

I kinda understand that if you go to bed at the same time forever then any change can be a problem, but If you only go to bed when your tired, as I do, the first hour whenever it may be is potential divorce time...:twak:

I would love to be able to go to bed just when I felt tired, rather than having to stick to a routine that doesn't always fit how I feel.

Why is it so mentally difficult to get into an upright position after lying down to sleep ???

Mind you when I lived in a warm climate I didn't seem to have too much of a problem getting out of bed - or was I much younger then and life was more exciting and promising??!!!

I am defaintly not a morning person,even though i need to be.I proberly go to bed between 1 and 2am as other half usually gets in about 1.If i go to bed before even if im cream crackered i cannot sleep.

Usually wake when my 3 old wakes me and it mum,mum ,mum,like waking and straight to work grrr.I need about at least 3 cups of tea or more and cigs to wake up.Takes me a good 2 hours and can be grumpy as hell if i cannot sit for some time to wake.

I defaintly better in afternoons,do my cleaning and what ever else and enjoy my nights when kids are in bed and have some me time.Apparently ive always been bad for going to bed and being grumpy in the morning,hard habits hard to change,but got to as my son starts school september so knocking the tea and fags on the head and see where it takes me . Proberly a nervous wreck lol

Hillman avenger was my first car !

I had a Hillman Avenger too - a boss bought it for me as a run around (running his dog back and forth to work!!). It was a horrible rusty orange red colour with a black vinyl roof!! One Christmas I was coming out of a Divorced and Separated Club (as you do!!), it had been snowing hard. I spent about 15 minutes cleaning off all the snow, I scraped off the ice got in, with my friend in the passenger seat. She put on a pair of gloves that were on the dashboard as she was so cold and I then started up the car, when there was a tap on the side window. This chap was shouting through the glass that I was in HIS car!!! Of course I thought it was a wind up and that he'd had too much to drink so told him to clear off!!! After a few more 'words' I had to concede that it was in fact his car. Great!!! I then had to start all over again clearing the snow and ice off my car!!!

I'm a nighttime person, love to spend time into the wee hours, I even work/concentrate better after dark!
