Monday morning question: Who is so crazy to be awake

[MissHoneychurch]

already, still or whatever???



:hi:

Good Monday Morning

[haf216]

1. I up, but only because I have to be

at work at five. I was just checking what was going on here, before I got ready to go. Good morning to you!

[MissHoneychurch]

2. Good morning

To be at work at 5am??? That is not human

;hug:

[haf216]

20. I Know!

I hate Mondays. We work a 5am to 5pm shift. YUCK!!!! I hope everyone has a good day.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

3. Nah, the crazy thing is the fact that I'm watching a John Wayne movie

Seriously though, I have no clue why I'm awake. I was exhausted before from apple picking but now I'm up.

[MissHoneychurch]

4. Too much fresh air???

Maybe there was something in the apples you ate? :shrug:

Looks like you had a lot of fun!!!!

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

5. It was fun.

I definitely have a ton of apples now.

[billyskank]

7. If you lived in my country, you'd keep regular hours

:hi:

[gr8dane_daddy]

6. I've been at work since 8pm last night!

Sucks working nights sometimes...you lose that human contact. You guys are my only refuge at night.

[MissHoneychurch]

10. That is not right

people shouldn't work at night.

I am glad you found us :hig:

:hug:

[gr8dane_daddy]

40. Thanks...

Check my DU before looking at boring "work" stuff.

[LiberalHeart]

8. I'm still up ... probaby for an hour or so more.

Nights are the best time to be alive.

[MissHoneychurch]

12. I agree

- on the weekends. But not during the week if you have to work.

[Guava Jelly]

9. I overslept by 45 minutes

But i am awake :)

[MissHoneychurch]

11. Good morning

then you are better than me. I only slept 5 hours last night. Not really helpful to get through the day

:hi: :hug:

[Guava Jelly]

13. i got maybe 5 1/2 hours my self

but thats around my average

[MissHoneychurch]

18. I couldn't live on that

I need at least 6 to 7 hours.

[Guava Jelly]

22. I barely live on it

I doze of a few times a day
Luckily as of late it hasnt been while driving :)

[MissHoneychurch]

24. At least something

:eyes:

You better watch out, sleeping and driving shouldn't be done at the same time.

This infomerical has been brought to you by ....


:hug:

[Guava Jelly]

26. It hasn't happened in over a year

My tacoma is far bouncier than my corolla was so it keeps me awake
:)
:hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

27. Mister.

I don't wanna hear anything about you being injured or even worse. So you better keep your ass awake while driving. Understood?

:hug:

[Guava Jelly]

28. yes sweetie :o)

I have my orders.
:loveya:

[MissHoneychurch]

29. You sure do!!

And I am for sure not the only one who would tell you that!!!

:loveya:

[Guava Jelly]

34. aww schucks

:blush:
your just sayen that :loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

14. I am. But not for long.

Feeling mighty tired right now. :loveya:

[Guava Jelly]

15. well after partying all night birthday girl

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

16. You got it, G!

I'm definitely on my way out!

[MissHoneychurch]

17. Hey there

what time is it for you right now???

:loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

19. Close to o'dark thirty!

Actually, it's 2:15 am my time. And I'm very tired, so I'll be heading off to dreamland. :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[MissHoneychurch]

25. Good night girlfriend

you sleep tight :hug:

:loveya:

[hfojvt]

21. verrucht hier

:patriot:

Thank God it's Monday. Hopefully my last day of work before retirement. Unfortunately I will not be able to retire from cleaning up around here. I still have to put the trash out this morning before I goto bed.

[MissHoneychurch]

23. Good morning

early retirement? Because of your health?

You are correct though, cleaning up at home never stops. But at least it is only your own clutter :D

:hug:

[hfojvt]

32. I am pretty sure some of the clutter belongs to the dogs

But sadly? I am still too healthy to get a government check. I can no longer run, although I am training my new dog to chase me up the stairs. I am retiring early because of my wealth. Since I will never have children and my house is paid for, I can afford to work part time.

[MissHoneychurch]

33. If you can afford it, then it is OK

and the good part is that you can chose the jobs you wanna do.

Best of luck hjovt :hug_

[benny05]

30. I am

but I hope to get back to sleep soon! :hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

31. Why did you wake up?

Hope you get some more sleep. Could you please sleep some for me as well and send me the effects?

Thanks :hi:

[Chan790]

35. Me me me!!!

Closed last night...open this morning.

I feel like someone has cracked me across the head with the staff of wonderment and poured pixie dust made out of the ground-up dreams of small children, espresso beans and ju-ju-bees into my cranium.

No that's not :sarcasm:, it's the craziness talking.

[MissHoneychurch]

37. Sounds like you feel rather .... uuhm ... interesting

please don't bite any customers

:yoiks:

I hope you don't have to close tonight again :hug:

[ghostsofgiants]

36. Still.

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

41. Hi primate

college work?

:hi:

[ghostsofgiants]

44. Yeah, mixed with a whole lot of procrastination.

I've been studying, but I've also been playing bass and playing with toy nuchucks.

[xchrom]

38. it's 3:30 now -- i've been up since 2:30.

and that's my usual routine -- i sleep maybe 4hrs -- i hit the gym at 5:30 am -- work out for two hours.

yada yada.

[MissHoneychurch]

42. You, xchrom, deserve a medal

for going to the gym for two hours at a time I am not even functioning

[xchrom]

45. lol -- Gay Central Committee

sent out requirements for time spent at the gym in order to retain our Gay I.D. card.

a boy has to keep his figure in shape.

[MissHoneychurch]

46. Not only a boy

a girl as well. But I honestly could never do it at 5.30am in the morning. Normally I go after work. Before going home.

[xchrom]

48. lol -- i'd never get to sleep

if i worked out at the other end.

[MissHoneychurch]

50. Why not?

you work so long and go to bed so early?

[xchrom]

66. oh it would wake me up.

i'd be energized. and right before -- or not so long before i go to bed.

age plays into it some what.

[unsavedtrash]

39. still up. Just finished an on-line mid-term exam

and now (5:34) am about to do some homework. I had a four hour power nap last night and I am all but IVing coffee so I am good. Good morning to you.

[MissHoneychurch]

43. OK

that doesn't make me miss college!!!

Good morning, I hope the exam went OK.

:hi:

[buddhamama]

47. i have been up for a little while now

since 3:30 :hangover:

Hi MHC :hi: I hope your Monday is treating you well. :)

[MissHoneychurch]

49. Hi buddhamama

:hi:

Good morning!!! Now, why would you get up that early??

So far the day is good. It is quiet here, I can do my work on the computer in between posting on DU of course. And I doubt I will stay in long today. I only slept 5 hours last night and I am kinda tired.

[buddhamama]

53. i usually get up early

4am because i like the quiet time for coffee and meditation before i have get my son up and ready for school.

i am glad to hear your day is good so far. rest well! :)

[In_The_Wind]

51. I think that used to describe me.

I'm feeling a bit lazy today. x( I don't want to pack the car and drive north. :cry:

[billyskank]

52. Joani ~ ~ ~

:hug:

:loveya:

[In_The_Wind]

55. billyskank ~ ~ ~

:loveya: the most!
Thanks for the PMs last night. Wildhorses took over after you went to bed. I'm going to stop by and cry on her shoulder with her for a while Tuesday.
x( Life was so much simpler a few years ago. I'm tired of traveling and my life at this moment!

[MissHoneychurch]

54. Hey Joani!!!!

Good morning. Stop by at MissAirmens, that way you can get some friendship and yummy cheese on your way up North before you are heading South again really quick

:hug:

[In_The_Wind]

64. Hey Hon!

I should be in AirmensMom's neck of the woods on Tuesday. However, I'm afraid I'm not very good company at the moment. I feel a bit overwhelmed. I've got so much to do when I get home including going on dial-up to transfer your vacation pics into my photobucket so I can get them to you. I'm sorry I haven't sent them yet.

[MissHoneychurch]

78. Isn't it easier

to divide the vacation pics in more than one folder and burn them then?

Maybe stopping by at MissAirmens would be perfect then. Getting some kitten luv normally is a sure cheer-up factor :hug:

[In_The_Wind]

80. I thought I told you that I don't know how to do that.

I haven't a clue about where to start making folders or separating them. If I did I would have done that weeks ago. x( So no, it isn't easier since I don't know what I'm doing.

[MissHoneychurch]

83. OK

you create a new folder. Then you go to the folder with the pictures, mark some of them. Then you click on the right mouse side, and say cut. Then you go to the new folder, click the right mouse side and say "paste" and then you have the pics in the new folder. If you wanna be on the safe side say "copy" instead of "cut" and continue. And then once the pics are in the new folder, go back to the old one and delete the copied pictures.

[In_The_Wind]

86. Thank you

It's too bad that we didn't know we were creating a file that was too big but I guess that's the way we learn new things.
I'll follow your instructions when I'm back home this weekend. I didn't bring the blanks with me on this trip.

59. Morning Joani!

Nice to see you. I can sympathize with you on the ambition factor. Mine is at an all-time low.

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[In_The_Wind]

69. Oh! I'm sorry Simply Fugue.

I know I shouldn't feel this way but I'd just like to sit still in one place for a while until my head stops spinning. The crime rate is off the Richter scale in south Florida compared to my sleepy little village of Woodstock. It's a little scary! :scared:



















:hide:
If the cold up north doesn't kill me the stray flying bullets might!
The first thing I saw after getting on the Florida Turnpike Friday was a crime scene. :scared: :grr: An entire family had been murdered early that morning.

I don't understand what's going on in our world! When did people learn to hate one another so much? Why gun down innocent babies.?
Enough about me.


What's slowing you down today? :loveya:

[Callalily]

56. I'm up, but I don't

want to be. If I'd have my way, I just crawl right back into bed.

But no, here I am waiting for my coffee to finish so I can fill my travel mug and be off to work. Work has not been fun lately.


Anyway, MissH and all. Hope your day goes well.

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[billyskank]

57. FUGUE!!!

:loveya:

[Callalily]

60. Funny!

I was just going to say 'morning to you and I noticed your reply here.

Anyway and hope your day is going well.

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

61. Good morning Simply!!!

:hi: :hug: :pals: :loveya:

I understand you. I felt the same this morning. Only that I had a cup of tea. I stayed at neweurope's place last night (I was invited over to dinner) and took the Metro train back this morning to Frankfurt. Of course the train I chose got canceld for obscure reasons so I had to stay out in the cold, waiting for the next one x( And that all on 5 hours sleep.

Other than that, I am fine :D

I hope your work does get better soon. Didn't you say your boss leaves? Can you take over his position?

:loveya:

[Callalily]

67. Yes, my boss

leaves in about two weeks, and that's what's causing all the stress. He's not doing his job at all, and is not sharing all the "ins and outs" of what he does. I chatted about taking his place, but there's been a lot of changes, and I'm not liking them so I've decided to stay in my position. But it's going to take a long time to replace him, and I have been getting many additional responsibilities, and working far too many hours without pay. There is another position that's open that I may apply for. I like the boss there and it's a straight forty hour week. No OT without pay. That alone would be a bonus. But I haven't totally decided on that because they wouldn't let me go in my department until a new boss is in place, and of course my replacement if I leave. So we're talking months here and I'm sure they won't keep that other position open and wait for me.

Sorry to hear about your canceled train. Not a fun thing to go through so early in the morning.

Gotta head out now. Hope your day goes well. You should take a nap when you get home.

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[miss_american_pie]

58. Good morning

My smaller kid and I have been up for a while, but I like Mondays so it's okay. :hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

62. Good morning 'pie

Hope you have a wonderful Monday :hi:

Give the kid an hug from me :)

[Tripper11]

63. I get up at 2am....

Monday through Friday for work. Monday's definately suck because it's tough to get back into that mode.
It is a rough schedule but I like being home by noon. I grab a nap before the kids get home from school then help with homework and get dinner ready for a family sit down.
I just keep reminding myself the sacrifice is for the family. Once the kids get older I will look for more reasonable hours.

[AussieDave]

65. Good morning/afternoon/evening MissHoneychurch

It's afternoon where you are, right ?? It's 9:45pm Monday evening here on the east coast of Australia - nearly my bedtime.

Hope you're well recovered from your American vacation - it all seems long ago, doesn't it ?? That's how my vacations go.:hi:

[Mutley]

68. I'm awake

but it's been several hours since you posted this thread.

:P

[MissHoneychurch]

70. Och, "only" 3 hours

:P

[Mutley]

71. I certainly wasn't awake at 4:30

in the morning.

:D

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

73. Well, it started out

as a "Who is awake" thread but turned into a "Good morning" thread, which is wonderful :D

I wasn't awake at 4.30am my time either, so it is all sound and fair

:hi:

[WannaBeGrumpy]

72. I had to go to stupid school today...

This sucks! :(

[MissHoneychurch]

75. Awwwww

poor you :hug:

I am sure there is a lot to tell your friends about this weekend, preferable during lessons :D

[WannaBeGrumpy]

77. I have to catch up in all my classes cause I was sick Friday....

and I'm not looking forward to it. i also have the sneaking suspicion that I'm forgetting something huge! :cry:

[MissHoneychurch]

79. Like

learning for a test?????

Catching up sucks, but at least it is only a day, not too bad actually. And you should be lucky, when I was going to school, I had to go to school every second Saturay

Boy, do I feel old suddenly .... :yoiks:

[WannaBeGrumpy]

81. Well it sucks cause my school is an hour away from home...

And I can't stay before or after school because I have to catch the bus! By the time I get home, I'm too tired to do homework! grrr coming to this school was not the best decision ever! ;(

[MissHoneychurch]

84. How about

doing homework in the bus??

I remember doing it. OK, the handwriting ain't the best grade then but who cares :D

[WannaBeGrumpy]

85. Our bus.....

is the bumpiest bus ever created! plus the road to school is the bumpiest ever created

[MissHoneychurch]

88. Darn it

I can't find a way to help you :hug:

I hope you have a good day at school nevertheless.

I guess it doesn't help if I tell you that I can leave work in about an hour :P

[Brewman_Jax]

74. Easy for you to say

you're going home in a couple of hours! :P

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

76. You can be sure of that!!!!

As sure as you can be that I am flirting with you :P

:hi: L_A

How was your weekend?

[Brewman_Jax]

82. Weekend was good

good weather, spent Saturday carrying boxes at parents' house (lazy brothers were somewhere else, of course :() saw kitty cat workout with soccer football on Sunday, watched NFL football with guys at sports bar and drank beer and ate pizza and wings. Did some chores, too.

How was your weekend?

[MissHoneychurch]

87. Sounds like a busy weekend

I did chores on Saturday and yesterday afternoon I went to neweurope. She invited me over to have dinner with her, her partner and friends. In the morning I baked a pumpkin pie which got accepted rather well :D

That was my weekend. Now I want to go home and sleep. But I have about 1 1/2 hours left :P

Sorry about your lazy brothers. You need to kick them in their asses if that would help :hug:

[Brewman_Jax]

89. Pumpkin Pie

:9

Something to do when I return home. Looks like rain for the rest of the day.

[MissHoneychurch]

90. Baking or eating?

If you need help .... :evilgrin:

[Brewman_Jax]

92. Baking

seen the ingredients for the store-bought pies. I'd rather bake my own. :9

then will eat it.

I see you want to help... :evilgrin:

[MissHoneychurch]

93. You??

Always :evilgrin:

Ya know .... licking the filling from you the spoon



:hide:

[Brewman_Jax]

95. Bad girl

:P :hug:

good bad girl

[MissHoneychurch]

96. Is it suddenly getting warmer in here??

I was cold all day but suddenly ... :blush:

:hug:

[BarenakedLady]

91. I'm up now

Took me awhile to get going this morning. Somedays I'd just rather stay in bed.

:donut:

[MissHoneychurch]

94. Good morning

Monday mornings are the worst. One could sleep in on the weekends and then they expect one to wake up to un-godly times again and be fit :eyes: I tell ya .... :rofl:

[LynzM]

97. Hrm... 4:40 am, I was not yet awake

But, I didn't go to sleep until almost 2, and was up at 7. Eesh.

:hi:
