I've always heard that farmers get up super early... what I would like to know is what time do you all wake up and why?

Wish I could make it a poll. :rolleyes:

Thanks!

When I'm at home generally no later than 8:30-ish on the weekends....I actually sleep in later on some school days

LOL, I didn't ask what time you were home, I asked what time you woke up and why and you answered neither question. :lol: :p ;)

Usually depends on what time my kids end up awake. Youngest son has been up as early as 5:30am. Then of course I get woke up when DH comes in from work at 6am too. Usually I try to go back to sleep after all that though. Try not to be actually up and about before 8 or 8:30 but the kids end up dictating that a bit. If they are all awake and not going back to sleep easily I just get up with them. Given the choice and opportunity I'd rather sleep till 9am-ish! It happens sometimes on the weekends when we only have the youngest son here since the older 2 go spend time with the grandparents.

ballababahhahahah like 9:30.

For real though. About 9-9:30 is most common but sometimes earlier or if I have to go somewhere I will take care of the early. Sometimes I don't get out there till noon but that's only late weekend nights.

Between 5:00am and 5:30 am most mornings. Out with all the animals when it starts to get light. Why? My animals starting fussing if not fed on time. :lol: They run the farm. LOL

Depends on what time I have to go to work. Like the past two days I had to be at work by 9 (which means I leave at 8:30) so I woke up at 7:30. Buttt I didn't actually get out of bed until 7:45 lol. Then I go feed my sheep and I come back in, take a shower, blow dry my hair, and get ready for work. If I don't have to work until 11 or 12 like usual, then I'm usually up by 8:30 or 9. Sheep get fed whenever I wake up and whenever I get home. They're very flexible lol
