I was asleep at 10:30 on New Year's Eve, and I didn't even feel guilty :)<br />Lynn - I guess I should clarify it's exercise or writing before work - never both on the same day! That thought just makes my head spin. :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02512158365021041194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4757067787158700689.post-75954777019532129832011-01-08T09:36:48.395-06:002011-01-08T09:36:48.395-06:00Fitting excercise and writing in before going to w...Fitting excercise and writing in before going to work?

His job requires it, which I understand. What I didn't fathom was how he could actually enjoy throwing back the covers mere hours after night owl me had finally crashed--until recently.<br /><br />I'd prayed for years for God to transform me into a morning person so I could actually speak intelligently to Gwynly before he left for for work. A few months ago the Lord did just that. I've been getting up at 5:30 a.m. Some days I even wake before the alarm. And, wonder of wonders, I like doing so. Just goes to prove an old dog, er cat person, can change.Keli Gwynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13236868298400593688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4757067787158700689.post-63319513666980030702011-01-06T11:06:00.794-06:002011-01-06T11:06:00.794-06:00I've never felt like I'm one or the other,...I've never felt like I'm one or the other, but lately I've been getting up at 6:30 (with my coffee too :)) and I love having that quiet time!

May God give you great grace and an anointing of ease as you push forward to meet this deadline. It sounds like you're using your time wisely and I believe He will enable you!<br /><br />I'm more of a morning person, though if you were to wake me at 5a.m. you wouldn't believe it. *hee hee* <br /><br />My proposal is at a publishing board right now where they're making a decision.
