Too early and way too early

What time do you go to bed and wake up currently?

I am an early riser. I was never that way, but after being in the workforce and commuting to work early, my body now has a time clock for early rising.

I don’t think it makes me healthy or wise it only makes me long for my bed every morning.

I rise at 4 am. and do my devotions, exercise, and then jump in the shower. I get breakfast, and if I have time before I rush out of the house, I play with my dogs.

I can’t sleep for more than six hours 30 minutes. If I get seven, I am doing well. I get in bed at about nine or nine thirty. I try to shut my thinking off, but my mind is still going on overtime.

On my days off, I do my regular six hours, then stay in bed to add more to my sleep. Most days it works great, and I get up refreshed. I usually can’t go over seven hours. I get headaches and feel foggy.

But I take naps in the middle of the day to recharge my mind and body.

Under the name Francis Lee, I write interracial Christian romantic suspense. My stories are about finding enduring love when hope and redemption seem unattainable as danger lurks around every corner. My characters learn that where there is darkness, "joy will always come in the morning".
