Late nighters and early risers

Which one are you?

Late nighter,usually hit the hay at 1 or 2 a.m.
Only reason to rise early-trapping,hunting fishing or conventioning.

Early to bed most of the time and always awake by 5:30.

Both. Not by choice. Lots of nights of 4hrs of sleep. During the week I'm usually up by 0530.
Today I went to sleep around 0400 woke up at 0830 and felt the day was already gone lol.

Here I am, in the fur shed. Just got the fire going and about to put up a few coons.
I've worked 3rd shift for the last 8 years. I'm a "late nighter".

Late nighter big time!

Well here its only 9;30 but I hit the sack at 2;00 am and get up before 8;00 am. And still have to wait three and a half hours for daylight.

Late nighter.

Early riser.

Don't know, 4 to 5 hrs a day. That could be 5pm to 9pm or 12am to 4 am depending if I am working or off.

Both.
Never have slept much or for long.
3-4 hours is more than enough ,
I can sleep when i'm dead .
I like wandering around in the dark checking traps.

I like to watch the sun rise and the day to begin.

early riser

You know the saying early to bed early to rise. I am up at 5 every day.

I'm almost always in bed before 22:00 and wake up before 05:00. No alarm clock necessary...

Early riser I had a coworker tell me once that I was the only person he ever knew that could get out of bed at 5:00 AM and be going a hundred miles an hour by 5:15 AM

Get up every morning 4am thinking about where to set traps.

Both, not really by choice. Because of a bad back, have to sleep in the recliner. 4 hours is usually a good night. Drinking coffee by 4am at the latest.

Early Riser!

Me too, typing with one hand for my neck is killin me. Have no use of left arm, hand is swelled fingers looks like sausage links. Ain't seen my bed in two days. Finished my second lantern though.

Early riser - have never set an alarm clock to get up for work. Automatically awake around 4:45.

Always rise early. Late nights depend on workload. Late nights are coming with the list of Turkey call customers growing. My eyes open at 5AM automatically unless I work until 3AM.

I haven't slept in bed for over 2 years. I tried it a couple weeks ago, didn't last an hour.

After years of getting up at 4am for work and in bed no later, and most of the time before, 9pm I'd say I'm a early riser.

But after being retired since last May, I can't shake the body alarm clock!

Up everyday between 3-4am, in bed by 8pm.

Someday maybe I can sleep till 6am. But the day would be almost over!

Always early riser around 3 am.

a little of both and coffee.

Both last night ... Im gonna need a nap

LDW, I feel ya man. I personally can't believe in my 50's I'm in the shape I'm in. I rotate how my body dictates from the recliner, couch, bed. Get sleep however you can get it man. Gotta keep movin, rockin and laughing. That's all I got.

Early to bed, early to rise. Missed out on healthy, wealthy and wise part.

I'll be 60 in May, but get around like I'm 80. Lol As long as I can still trap I'm happy. Just can't do what I could 20 years ago. At least I'm still upright, that's the main thing.

Late nighter always, sometimes early riser, sometimes napper.

im 61 with too many ailments and body damage and get around like im 65 at times ........at times like im 50 again. But still raising a 5 yr old alone, and his 10 week old border collie

I still haven't slept. I got 3 sisters left and I texted them all early this morning to wake up, if I can't sleep by dang you shouldn't either. My oldest, Sissy, tickled me. She didn't respond like the others did. She texted a few minutes ago and said I don't want to wake up you knothead. I text her back and said are you the smart one or the best sleeper, she said I'm both and your a pain in my arse but I love you. How cool is that. I love my sisters.

then--early to bed,early to rise
fish like heck,and make up lies.

Yep What Keith said....

Garry-

I can wake up early when I need to but I can also work all night too if needed. I was skinning lynx all night now I’m having coffee and then I’ll start skinning the fox in my porch. When I was in my teens and twenties it was common to stay up for 3-5 days at a time.

if i lived in Mexico i'd be known as El Nappo

Earlier riser i guess. But i need quite a bit of sleep to function. I get up 5:25 or 5:50 depending on the day. Im usually settling into bed at 9:00 pm give or take 20 minutes.

I find that if I take a nap I wake up feeling worse then I did before the nap.

Both. I work swing shift.

Watch TV or read a book until 11:00PM, then go to bed. Get up every day between 5:30 & 6:00AM.

I am working my way back to being an early riser. I used to rise early and stay up quite late for an early riser and get about 6-6.5 hours of sleep. When my hip pain got real bad in April I could not sleep well at all and I found myself actually getting my best sleep from 6-8 AM almost. I had surgery in July and I am working my way back but I am still now getting up about 6:45 AM to 7 AM but staying up until 11 PM or later. Hopefully as the days lengthen out I will get back to my more long term life style.

Up by 0400 every morning 👍

When I was working in the coal mine working swing shift it was just whenever I felt tired I tried to sleep. Now that I changed jobs I'm definitely an early riser. It took me about two to three months to finally be able to sleep "normal" again.
