At the start of the year, I cancelled my 5:40am alarm. I noticed during the week off for the holidays, I was naturally waking at that time so decided I could wake up in my own.
I was doing really well with it, but noticed over the last few days, I’ve been waking at 3 am and then watching the clock.
I probably fall sleep in between but it’s like – you know when you are going on a trip and you have to set the alarm for an earlier waking hour? Well, it’s like that. The anticipation of my need to wake up at a certain time. Between 3 and 5:40, I’m dozing and waking, sneaking a look at the clock and dozing some more.
So, the alarm is on again during the week. It’s my security blanket for a better night’s sleep.
