As I am getting ready for bed, I make sure to turn off all of the alarms on my phone. I have many of them set. I live by the alarms on my phone, to wake me up, as reminders, for literally everything. My favorite day of the week is Sunday. It is generally the only day of the week that I don’t have to be up by a certain time.
I make sure that the bathroom door is closed all the way, so that the sunlight doesn’t reflect in my eyes (if there is any). My curtains are the blackout kind - so no light gets in. I am lucky that my dogs do not wake me up in the morning. They will lay with me until I get up in the morning. So I will play ‘possum until I am ready to take them outside. No eye contact with them until that time. We will lay in bed, enjoying the quiet and stillness of the house… until I am ready to get up! I can do this on repeat all week since we are on Spring Break.

I too enjoy the silence all around at night. We live a small place. 🙂

Enjoy your week! Isn't it wonderful, no alarms, no morning routines, no making lunch the night before or figuring out what to wear! Happy Spring Break!

I have a special talent that makes my body wake up about 5 minutes before my alarm. Doesn’t matter what time I set it, I always beat it!! I’m glad you get a week free of alarms!
