I know exactly what you mean I work from 7pm to 7:30am. I've only worked days when I was in orientation and hated it. By 8am I was ready for a nap and didn't get moving until 11am. It's ok to wake up earlier on my days off but that's because I'm not setting an alarm clock. I still go to bed late on my days off. I hope you are enjoying your retirement.

I have always been an early riser. With my career job I was up at 5:30 and in the office by 7:15 or 7:30. I did it for so long, I would wake up at the same time on weekends and vacation. My problem is that I am also a ‘night owl’. Sleep is highly over-rated 😊.

I understand the time thing , most of my life I worked in the afternoon/evening getting home at 12 or 1 , been retired 10 years and still thing I am on 2nd, just so normal, I thought about moving the time but why? it works like it is... all the jobs I had there was to much help on the day shift, made it hard to get anything done, always someone in the way holding up progress, We were always able to get er done faster and under budget on an off shift...The old scenario, to many cooks in the kitchen just don't work!!!!!!

They say old habits die hard but it looks like you're going in the right direction by changing your lifestyle etc. I'm still kind of stuck in the same routine.

I've always had a regular 9 to 5 type job, more than a few times with long commutes and attempts to beat rush hour by going in early. So most of my days involved overtime. And that's if I even went out for lunch, which I usually haven't, so usually worked some or all of that time too. Now I'm self-employed and "between" contracts, and am the master of my own schedule. And I find myself going to bed later and later each night. To the point where now 2am isn't unheard of for me to still be up reading a book. I think if I ever have to go back to "normal" hours, I might go insane. Turns out, I'm a night person. I guess. Even an herb as sweet as basil is nothing without its bite. Lord Basil

I'm historically a later-is-better kind of person, also, but recently have been finding the pleasure in getting up early. One gets the sense that one can get a couple of hours of whatever it is one is into (work, reading, house work) before the rest of the world even gets started - sort of a nice feeling. (That is, until one realizes they should have stayed in bed, and go back there for a nap.)

I was always an owl and far from a lark but now that every day is Saturday, I'm falling asleep in my recliner and waking up early enough to hear the last hour of George Noory's Coast-to-Coast AM. I don't know what happened, but as I think about it, I'm now waking up about the time I used to go to bed.
