I am not a morning person...

Anyone who knows me really well knows that I am not a morning person. I am the kind of person who can't really have a conversation until after I have been up for at least an hour. Even then any loud noises before 9am feel like they are 10 times louder then what they really are. With that said, what am I doing waking up at 5:30 in the morning? My alarm is always set for 6:15am or 6:30am.

I am not quite sure why my body has all of a sudden decided that it is going to start waking up at 5:30am, but I can tell you this...that half an hour to an hour in bed each morning has been wonderful. The first morning I was like, "You have got to be kidding me" then I proceeded to toss and turn for the next 45 minutes and praying about whatever/whoever came to mind. The next morning when I woke up early again I complained at first and struggled to go back to sleep then I proceeded to pray about whatever/whoever came to mind. This has been going on for a few days. Each morning that I have woken up early my complaining and struggling to go back to sleep has gone down more and more. I am not sure if this is something that I am suppose to be getting into the habit of doing, waking up early in the morning and praying before I get out of bed, but hey it is not a bad habit to get into. If God is trying to teach me something through this I can definitely see a theme, do less complaining and struggling and more praying.

Tomorrow I have another Grammar test. This tri-mester has been flying by I can't believe it is already October.
