Sometimes a person can be dead tired, yet still not fall asleep when they go to bed.
When this happens, it doesn't matter that if you went to bed on time. It doesn't matter if you went to bed early. Either way you are going to be laying awake.
It certainly doesn't help if you went to bed late.
Thus, when the alarm goes off, reminding you it is a work day and you can not sleep in, it is not viewed in a pleasant light.
Our alarm clock is set for the local NPR. Each morning I am brought to awareness by the sound of a gentle female voice droning on about world events or other news.
Her mellow voice was what woke me this morning as she softly told my sleepy mind about the 110+ heat index expected for my area over the next three days as well as the 100+ expected for today.
Oh yes, that's the encouragement I need to get out of bed.
Good morning to you too.
