wake up without an alarm clock

Not so good today… still woke up at 7:30, but went back to sleep until and past my 8 o’clock alarm. I think the problem is, I need eight hours of sleep… and I went to sleep at 12:30 last night. New plan: go to sleep at 11:30 each night!

For the past week, I’ve found that my eyes open just around 7:30 AM, at which point I usually go back to sleep until my 8-ish alarm, which takes half an hour to actually wake me up.

Today though, today I refused to fall back asleep, and was able to pull myself out of bed before my alarm! (but still a ways past 7:30). Maybe it was the extra sunshine? Either way, I want to make this a habit. Let’s see if I can.
