I couldn't resist...I'm really NEITHER...I'd say more of a night own, but once 11pm hits...I start to Whither! My husband is an early bird...boy is that annoying! I always say..."I'm gonna get up early tomorrow and do this or that" but NOT...it NEVER HAPPENS! I do like getting up before everyone else...but it doesn't happen very often! Hee!
Night Owl, here!!!! I don't get started until 10:00 p.m. It drives my ds crazy because he doesn't like me going to bed after him. So I go to bed with him and then get up when he's asleep.
Night owl -- no contest. Don't think I saw the a.m. side of the clock on weekend mornings before DD. Work makes me a morning person (but not a happy one )
I'm with LukesMommy....I'm neither! If I could sleep in and go to bed early I'd be in heaven! I am really at my best in the afternoon. I loaf around all morning, then when the afternoon hits I'm a whirlwind of activity, then I crash after dinner. My poor hubby! :? In the few hours before dinner, I get all the things done that I should be doing all day.

ROTFLOL!!!! :lol: :lol:
I've finally found my "people"! I thought I was the only one who did that! Then I try and take a nap in the afternoon 'cause I have to get the kids up and to school really early!
I really do believe it's genetic. Even if I am EXHAUSTED, I'll still perk up at around 9 or 10pm. I have stopped being embarrased by it and just work around it!
Problem is I don't get to bed until about 1130 pm and have wake up for work at around 230-300am to get there at 4. I don't get nearly enough sleep. The only reason why I go to bed at 1130 is because I am BEAT from only getting a few hours of sleep. During the weekends though.....I'm up until about 2 am or so.
I was a night owl for years. However, now that I have to get up by 5:20 a.m. to go to work, I can rarely stay up past 10 p.m. With the one exception - when I'm at scrapbook or stamping get away I can miracously stay up almost the entire weekend.
With a full time job and 5 kids (4 - 13 yrs) my goal is to have them all in bed by 8:30, asleep by 9:30 (including dad) and then I stamp until 1am. I catch 4 hours and I start all over.
I like the stillness of the house - I feel enpowered to let my creativity run wild and I can pop any DVD in to listen to while I stamp - no one's fighting over the remote.
Unfortunately - of the 5 kids, #3 and #5 are also night owls. The youngest stays up until 1030 (4 yrs old) and helps me stamp or reads a book. He pops out of bed at 6am and naps for 3 hours at school so I don't stress. It also gives us the one-on-one time he misses out on.

Doesn't go well with getting up early with my girls though - my youngest loves to get up around 6-6:30am. UGH!! Don't get much sleep...hmmm....sleep or stamp?? Of course, I go with STAMPIN'!!!!!

I am an early bird! although my schedule gets thrown around, I do shift work and have to do late nights and graveyards. When I have those shifts it can get slow at work so I bring my stamping supplies and make cards
If i'm on a roll Scrappin & Stampin I can definately be a night owl, but I prefer in bed by 11pm and up at 6am.
Night owl! My usual bedtime is about 2am! For housework, I'm most productive in the morning. I'm worthless after lunch, but perk up again late afternoon/early evening. My husband is a night owl too, so it works out well.
