What time do you retirees get up?

[Redmt]

I'm 67, I retired 10 years ago at 57. I drove truck for 34 years mostly at night (freight hauler).
I also have farmed our 90 acres, since we bought this place in 1994.
I have broken sleep, usually awake after 4 hours of sleep, very unusual for me to sleep straight 6 hours.
Always up by 4am and up until 9pm or 10pm.

I ran sleeper team for years. It's probably been 30+ years since I went 11 Western then retired from driving in the late 90's but the built in clock still is ticking. If I can get 6 hours continuous I'm happy as hell.

I am the odd man out here. When I retired the alarm clock went for a swim. I have always been a night owl so tend to stay up late and get up mid morning. With our amount of daylight change getting up at a set time is tough unless an alarm clock is used.

Same here ... for the first few years of retirement it was had to "sleep in" to 0700 ... but I have always been a night owl & have no problem saying up to 0200-0400 & get up when I feel like it. I have run on little sleep for decades.
