Orema, (or anyone else who manages to get up early on a consistent basis) are you naturally a morning person or do you have a secret that you could share with those of us who have trouble getting up in the mornings?

I'm taking notes!

I am a morning person. I always have been. It is an unusual day that I don't wake up before my iPad goes off with "All Over the World" by ELO. (I used to use Mr. Blue Sky but changed it last week).

I go to bed early, around 9:30 or 10:00PM, read for 30 minutes and then lights out.

My GF is a late night person (usually 12:30AM) so she sleeps later in the morning. On weekends, I stay up with her but I still wake up around 6-6:30. I love that time. It is quiet and I can take my time waking up and enjoying my coffee.

I really don't think that you can make an early bird a night owl or vice versa.

I have been an early bird since I was a little girl.
