Why does 30 minutes make such a huge difference?

Today was a 5:30 AM day. When my kid gets up before 6 AM, it's like I can't move for the rest of the day. But when she gets up at 6 AM, I'm fine. It makes no sense. Maybe it's because it's still dark when I get up. What's something in your life that doesn't make sense to you?

Re: Why does 30 minutes make such a huge difference?

  • Realistically speaking it could be because if your body is used to waking up at a specific time, it times your sleep cycles around that. And if you're woken at a different time, you're in a different part of a sleep cycle and it's always hard to wake up at an off time.

  • 30 minutes makes my life. If I have a diet coke at 2:30 pm I will have the energy to make it until bedtime (well, the kids bedtime), but if I have it at 3:00 pm I will be up. all. night.
