The alarm this morning.
Bonus Questions: Are you a ‘morning person'?
Sometimes. If you’re not, do you or have you ever lived with one? If you are, do you or have you ever lived with someone who isn’t?
It's all the same to me. Night owls or early birds.
Do you like to fall asleep to
The sounds of nature, clock makes rain sound.

Get up and do something for a while. Then try again.

What’s the last sound that woke you up and had you looking for something to throw? Next door's yappy dog!

If you’re not, do you or have you ever lived with one? My ex-husband ! Grrrrr
If you are, do you or have you ever lived with someone who isn’t?

What’s your favorite sound to wake up to in the morning? I'm not generally a morning person, so I'd prefer to hear NO sound when I first wake up. However, if I happen to be in a tent at a campground, I love the sounds of the birds singing just before dawn, and the muffled sounds of other campers starting their campfires and cooking their breakfasts.
What’s the last sound that woke you up and had you looking for something to throw? That alarm clock of mine!

When you have trouble falling asleep, is there anything special you do to help? I occasionally take a generic version of Tylenol PM, but not very often. Those usually do a pretty good job of knocking me out.
