Default Two very, very important questions

Living in the Villages changes lots of patterns in our lives. I think we will find the wide variety of the answers very interesting.

What time do you go to bed?

What time do you get up in the morning?

Usually go to bed right after the news and weather, about 1115-1130. (That is when the Mrs wakes me up to go to bed.)

Get up at 600 +/-.

Bed around 11, awake around 7 to 7:30, but reading the paper in bed means we actually get out of bed between 8:30 and 9 (unless we have an early tee time or there's a wonderful sale somewhere, anywhere... )

Took quite a while to adjust to NOT having to be up before the sun.... and now I truly understand how much my parents enjoyed not setting their alarm clock.

Bed between 10 and 11, up between 4 and 5. While I catch up on the news and sports on the Net, I tune in to ESPN at 5, the Golf Channel at 6 and finally head to MVP (The gym) between 7 - 8.

I generally get to bed later than I did in my previous life; usually near Midnight. I then luxuriate by sleeping in 'till about 8 AM. After 40+ years of my alarm going off before 5 AM this is my reward.

Default Go to Bed/Wake Up Time

I usually go to bed around 11:30 p.m. Sometimes it can be 2:00 AM if I'm involved in a great book on my Kindle that I can't put down.

My natural body wake up time is 9:00 a.m. I just retired in June and no longer have to listen to that darn alarm clock go off at 5:45 a.m.

Meanwhile my husband goes to bed around 9:30 to 10:30 p.m. and Max (our dog) diligently gets him up around 7:00 a.m. for his morning walk. Well actually Max licks my face and wakes me up and then I wake up Hubby. LOL

nONIE, I wondered the same thing? Is the sun up that early?
And I wonder if KathieI is still up when the others are getting up between 4 & 6?
