Alarm Poll

Do you get right up in the morning with your first alarm? Do you use the alarm on your cell phone or an alarm clock? Do you only set one alarm and then hit snooze....how many times? Do you set multiple alarms so you don't have to hit snooze? What do you do?

pizzamyheart

I use my phone and set multiple alarms. I also hit snooze. So my mornings are very confusing.

Cell alarm titled "GET UP YOU LAZY *kitten*" during the week and "Boo, Saturday" for when I have to work on the weekend.

Both set for 1/2 hour before I need to get up, and I snooze it 4 times (for 40 minutes)

Phone, one alarm, turn off right away. Sometimes I get up within a minute of alarm, but usually 15-30 minutes later.

I use my alarm clock and never hit snooze. 5 am M,W,F to lift, and 5:20 am T, Th for active rest day circuits.

ha so you plan ahead of time how many times you are allowed to press snooze? I do that.

i still use an alarm clock. set mine for 6 during weekdays. comes on to the oldies station and i snooze it twice and get up around 620 usually. i don't set one for the weekend unless i have to go somewhere but I'm usually up before 7 anyhow on those days.

Old Fashion Alarm Clock. Set for 4:30, hit the snooze 3 times for 30 mins, alarm goes off at 5:00, hit it another 3 times, get up at 5:30. I have to pray myself out of bed. Definitely not a morning person.

My alarm is set for 5:00 a.m. M-F, however it is normal for me to already be awake when the alarm goes off. In fact, I love it when I actually NEED the alarm! I never hit snooze and I get right up or I wouldn't have enough time to get a good workout in before work. Weekends I don't set an alarm but I usually wake up before 5 anyway, then try to go back to sleep until at least 7.

Same here, it's like my body just doesn't want to sleep in anymore. I've tried just laying there to fall back asleep, but just can't so after half hour or so I just get up.

I wake up between 3:30 and 4:30 every morning. I haven't used an alarm in years. I miss needing an alarm!

For the most part I wake up at 4:30-5:30am every morning but I have the odd mornings like today in which I couldn’t get out of bed till 9:00am.

with school starting I set my alarm for five and five fifteen m-f. I hit snooze with the five alarm. So I have to turn it off at 5:09 and then again at 5:15. Sometimes if I'm really tired I will keep hitting snooze until 5:30, or I will sleepily grab my phone and set an alarm for 5:30, usually while swearing. I do set an alarm for 8 on the weekends, (because I have chronic insomnia and can't allow myself to sleep in late) but usually wake up around 7. It still feels like sleeping in. This summer I have gotten into the habit of staying up late and waking up around 8.

I have hired a Mariachi Band to enter my bedroom and wake me up every morning at 9 o'clock sharp.

I tried this, but the only thing available at the 5am slot was the scary clowns. I really didn't want to have to do any more laundry, so I opted out.

This thread reminds me I need to change my alarm ringtone...current one sounds like funeral music.

nah.... just shorts that are a half size too tight.

I use an alarm clock and have been better about getting up when it first goes off. If not, I'll snooze for no more than ten minutes.

I usually get up on the first ring. Rarely, do I hit snooze. Somehow my alarm didn’t go off this AM. Not sure why but I woke up and happened to check my phone and saw the time. I literally rolled out of bed and was ready in 15 min. Thankfully, I was only 5 min late to work. I hate being late.

BuddhaBunnyFTW

Snooze 10 minutes then get up

CoffeeAndContour

I always wake up before my alarm. I make my bed, use the bathroom, make a cup of coffee and enjoy some peace before my kids wakes and makes peace and quiet a thing of the past.

I have an alarm set for everyday of the week because I really love the song.

What about S and S??

I’m a serial snoozer - goes off at 5:30 - I’m never up before 6:30 - sometimes later - I need time to talk myself into starting the day

cwolfman13

I have an alarm clock...it goes off at 5:20 and I get up most of the time...very rarely snooze. Sometimes I might lay there for a couple of minutes, but usually I just get up and gear up for my ride.

lx1x

Phone alarm but the dogs typically beats it.. I have it 10min snooze...kinda sorta timer for me... I'll turn it off when I'm on the road to work.

I usually wake up before the alarm goes off. It plays music for 10 minutes. If I sleep through it, i usually sleep til noon. I love retirement.❤️❤️❤️
