Start early

 Gradually I am getting back to rising earlier.  It will be more difficult as the days shorten, and turning the clock back at the end of the month will turn everything upside down..but I am getting there!

Two washes done by the time Pirate came downstairs this morning..but he does have a reason, the two jags together are making his body work hard.  I looked at the forecast before starting...and luckily it was correct and the rain had stopped by the time the clothes were ready to go on the line.

An early start has other advantages, having jobs done before anyone visits means they get done!  We had a friend visit in the afternoon as well, which was good. However that mean that our short leg loosener ride was started just in time and we got home just as the roads were getting busy with commuters. Not a good time to be on the road however you travel.

Now I am planning what jobs can be done tomorrow morning...

I have to rise early (6.30) because my carer comes at 7.30 to get my breakfast, and make my bed and help me shower and dress. But now I am used to it I like it.

I always prefer rising earlier to get jobs done. Doesn't always happen though.

Autumn has definitely changed the weather. There's a harsh, cold wind blowing here today and our high temp tomorrow is supposed to top out at 50 or so F. But after a couple of chill days it's supposed to be back in the low 70's by the weekend.

I find it hard to be an early riser - it is not my natural waking time, but like you say - you do get lots done before the day actually starts.
Still - I would prefer to snuggle down in the duvet and be woken with a mug of tea at a reasonable hour!!!😁

It feels good to get things done!

I admit to loving the luxury of sleeping until I wake up. This morning, it was nearly 8 am! Waking up in total darkness makes it very hard to get myself motivated to move. Coffee helps. :)
