Do you feel guilty if you have a lie in??

I’m surprised there are so many fellow larks here, I’m the only one I know who wakes very early and gets up straight away. I couldn’t ever lie-in but it’s nothing to feel guilty about.
One of the advantages of living alone is doing what you want, when you want. This morning I misread the clock and accidentally got up just after 4 instead of my more usual 5.

Wwe wake up at around 6 am everyday. I can stay in bed drinking tea, scrolling sm and watching tv for ages. The thing i can't do is sit around doing nothing during the day.

Why the guilt? Just do what makes you happy - heaven knows we have earned it after a lifetime of child-rearing and working hard!

I am a lark, up between 6.00am - 7.00am. My idea of a lie in is 8.00am.

I don't like lolling around in bed. Like some others, if I am awake I am out of bed. However I am known to come down in my dressinggown, sit at my desk and start doing things and suddenly realise it is 11.00am and I am still not dressed.

Going for a leisurely shower in a min and then out and about.

No never, I worked from 6 pm last night to midnight and got to bed around 1 a.m but was still up before 7 a.m. I just can’t sleep much past that hour.

My younger self - rushing around for work, kiddies, commitments is now quietly celebrating that my older self gets to choose! And, not feel at all guilty about it

I work 6 days a week, usually on Sundays but off Fridays. Also, the menopause causes me to constantly wake up at various and multiple times late at night/early hours, leaving me utterly exhausted, so I don't feel the slightest bit guilty about having a lie-in!

I'm up at 7 for work at 8, as I only live 10 minutes walk from work.

Absolutely not. I like nothing better than getting up feeding the dog and doing one or two things then taking my first cup of tea back to bed.

I am up around 7 am most days. I rarely have a lie in, but I wouldn't feel guilty. At my age I do what I want when I want. I now have so many aches and pains it is more comfortable to get up.

Absolutely not.
I will lie in if I need it.

Good morning travelsafar.
Enjoy your lie in and don't feel guilty.
I'm like Batty and can't stay in bed once I'm awake. I usually wake around 5am and get up any time around 5.30-6am. I wish I could lie in, but it just doesn't work for me.

In the summer months I am usually wide awake by 5am so I read a bit and then get up about 6.30am. In the winter I tend to get up later especially if it is very cold. I don't have a lie in very often but I never feel guilty if I do.

No I never lie in and don’t like to I m usually wake between 4 and 5 play few games on my iPad and up by 6 am latest
I ve never laid in
My mum and Dad were 6 am folks as were my maternal grandparents who I spent a lot of time, with so I guess we are generations of early risers

I can't lie in bed once I'm awake. I have to get up. I usually wake early- between 5 and 6. It's annoying but I'm used to it
