I'm a night owl, I may be up until 2 or 3 am or better some nights, other nights I crash at midnight. But I also sleep late in the morning, I'm talking 11am or maybe noon if I don't have an appointment. I decided when we retired and now that I'm widowed I was not getting up at 6am like I did to get the kids and husband off to school and work. My time is my own and I am going to enjoy it to the fullest.

I usually go to sleep around 12:30 or 1:00 am and wake up at 6:00 as I did when I worked. Now I just go back to sleep until around 9:00!

Not retired, will probably never retire, but I go to bed around 10-11ish and am up no later than 6:30, generally a bit earlier. 8-8 1/2 hrs for me!
I do appreciate a mid-afternoon nap on the weekend, one thing I definitely think I appreciate much more now than when I HAD to nap!

It is wonderful to be retired even on disability. I can & do go to bed whenever & get up whenever. I have been known to wake up early on Monday a.m. I lay in bed & watch everyone hustle off to work. Then I smile, roll over & go back to sleep until my coffee brews at 10:00 a.m. If I don't get up then, so what???
I go to bed & think to myself, "remember all those many, many years when you had kids & work?" Guess what? You can grab that book on the nightstand & read until 9:00 a.m. if you choose to..........I want to live to be 100.

and get up between 6:00 and 8:00. Used to get up at 4:00AM,
Not anymore.
