Mornings are hell

Is it just me?

As soon as the mornings get dark I struggle to wake up and when I do I'm immediately in a foul mood.

October - April

Alarm goes off...

Me: ffs. Why? No, it's too early. I hate this.

And repeat for ten minutes until get in shower.

May-September

Me: the birds are singing. I should get up soon. What time is it?

An hour before my alarm!

I'm already dreading the first glimpse of tomorrow morning. I know it will be ok really, but I just can't wake up feeling positive on a weekday in the dark morning months.

Have you tried a sunrise alarm? I have a lumie and it makes winter mornings less awful.

Ooh no I'm the opposite. Summer feels like waking up with a torch shining in my face. Winter feels cosy and gentle.

Im the same. And my dcs won't move in the morning. Teen argument to go to college. 2 under 5 both being woken and going back to sleep despite a 6.30 and 7pm bed.
This morning 8am we all woke. We leave 8.30
