Have you slept in this morning

I usually get up at 8 but sleep later on a Sunday, have a cup of coffee in my pyjamas and dressing gown while watching the Sophie Raiworth show on BBC1, then I shower, get dressed and get on with the day, today I took the dog for a walk, had something to eat then we visited our son, daughter-in-law and the younger grandchildren. By the time we got home it was time to prepare the evening meal which DH always does. I have always loved Sundays and still do even though I have been retired for 17 years.

Wow all you folk who can sleep well - you lucky things. I was up at my normal time of 6am. I survive on 6hrs a night.

I woke up at 6.30 and would have gone back to bed with a mug of tea but with two grandchildren coming for lunch I thought I'd get a head start.

I love getting up early but I also love lying in if I have a good book on the go.

Same here, Esspee, except that I’m up shortly after 0500 most days. Can’t remember the last time I was up after 0700.

I’m a morning person and can’t remember a time when I was still asleep after 7:00. I don’t necessarily get up immediately often sending emails or working on my family tree before rising.

My two dogs ensure I don't sleep in after 8am, time to go out please.

I think I’ve slept in if it’s after 7am I wish I could sleep in now and then but I just can’t.

I didn't go to bed til early hours. A family problem niggling at me did not help. I don't have a timetable since we retired and I helped with grandchildren.
I get up after mugs of tea I don't like sitting in bed once I am awake. I usually get up plan and prepare meals and potter in the garden. We are going out early evening with friends so no food prep today.

I nevere sleep in I envy anyone who can .

When you feel physically the worse for it, you really do regret it.

I am still struggling around feeling bog eyed and bleary with no energy to do anything. I am hoping that if I push myself to go and do gardening after lunch, my mind will clear.

Woke up at 11.45

My excuse, Covid.

I don’t think anyone should feel bad about sleeping late. I have always had a lie in at weekends, it’s what they’re for!

Up at 6.45am as the dog wakes me up to feed her. I then went back to bed with ipad surfing the Internet. Hubby was still asleep, and finally woke up at 10.30!. We had breakfast at 11.00am and I've just caught him fast asleep in the lounge - crikey that man can't half sleep. Hopefully off out soon for an afternoon stroll and maybe call in to a pub for a drink. Lazy day, just Sunday roast to make later, then feet up and watch the TV.

I don't need an excuse.
After 50 years of getting up at 6 am for work, I get up when I feel like it.

Well said Kate! Though I never sleep on in the morning, it’s great to know that if you do, there’s no problem. Enjoy!

I am retired now so don't set my alarm unless I have to be up and out early, bliss. Ive not had much of a lie in this morning as I had two of my GC staying last night, we were up, showered, dressed and out of the house for 10am to meet their parents for a nice breakfast at a local restaurant which was lovely & will save me having to cook any lunch. Only down side is I feel as if I have been subtly ticked off for letting them stay up too late!

No, but when I’ve had a wakeful night (fairly often now) I will sometimes finally go into a deep sleep at 4 or 5, and sleep until 9.30 or even later.

I never feel remotely guilty about it, though.
Usually I’m up far earlier but still (unashamedly!) reading the paper/doing the crossword etc. in my dressing gown until 10 ish.

I do not need an excuse, I go to sleep and get up when I like.

I haven’t slept in as my alarm clocks wake me to take 1st lot of meds, then 2nd lot of meds an hour later. Then Mr. B brings me my morning tea and I sit up in bed surrounded by pillows and catch up on emails and messages.

I spent many years getting up at ungodly hours, now I’m retired I do what I want. No guilt here

I was up during the night for about an hour, being an insomniac and then got woken again just after 6 by my cat wanting his breakfast!
Luckily my son went back downstairs and fed him about 30 minutes later!
Next thing I knew, it was 9.30!
Just planning what to cook for lunch and then hoping it stays dry long enough to get out in the garden, to trim a holly bush that has been affected by the recent winds

I wish I could sleep in! I don't sleep well at the best of times, usually waking every two hours. Last night was a good night but I was still wide awake at seven and up by half past.

Feeling more alive now. Have tidied kitchen, sitting in dressing gown and apron.
It's been drizzling outside for two days all day long.
Oh well, jigsaw again, maybe painting.

Have a nice day everyone.

I wish I could sleep late now and then, but it gives me a headache for some reason.

I woke early with the light, put eye mask on and snoozed until about 8:30, so late for me. I’ve had 2 mugs of tea, planned dinner and am out to get a paper for Cheltenham tips in a minute. MrJ is ironing his shirts upstairs. I think I’ll get a distinction in #lazygran thanks to Urmstongran with her excellent guidance.

Usually I am up and about early about 7am most days but last night I slept in until 8.30am,I didn't expect to sleep so late as yesterday I took ownership of a new dog a 14mth old dachshund I expected him to be unsettled but he cuddled in to his bed by the side of my bed so we both had a long lie in bed.

Up at 8 as usual but still in DJ with wet hair.
