Beautiful and wonderful (especially mid-summer in Arizona), but it didn't last. Now that my 18 month old is sleeping in my bed, I can't get up earlier than he does without waking him. Not only that, but my husband tends to go to bed at 3 or 4 am EVERY night, without fail (no matter what he says about getting to bed early). Oh, how I would love to see the sun rise again. Still working on getting my kid to bed before 10pm. Someday! Thanks for the inspiration. My husband and I tried this a few years ago – it was quite odd being awake at sunrise.

Not everything has to be taken care of, set up or ready to go each and everyday before the kids get up. Being well rested can make the whole day a lot more enjoyable. You’ll likely have more energy, more tolerance and patience.

However, I've just done a blog post on it and intend to get back into the habit. One thing I've found good is to open a window as soon as I'm out of bed and breathe in the fresh air. It really helps to wake me. Thanks for the tips. ~Rose .-= Rose´s last blog ..<a href="http://simplewings.wordpress.com/2010/01/01/focus-habit/" rel="nofollow">Focus Habit</a> =-.

Just started getting up earlier this week. I never skimp on having enough time to do the hair, clothes and makeup before I'm off to work. Even when I do hit the snooze, I manage to put myself together in just the nick of time. Now, I'm creating the space to primp my spirit before I start the day. It feels good not to go to work with a groggy soul. .-= Lori | Spiritual Tidbits´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.spiritualtidbits.com/a-committee-of-one/" rel="nofollow">A Committee of One</a> =-.

To sit up immediately, I would add the "flip" - pull the covers off of yourself, then on back angled off bed put legs up in air, then bring legs down, which gives you momentum and you can easily sit up. That and morning and evening routines you look forward to. My final two cents: Sleep is important for your well-being! Make sure you get lots of sleep on a consistent basis - see Sherri's point 2.
