Favorites: Sleeping and Waking

Actually, now that I think about it--there is a worse way to wake up. My sisters know what it is. It's waking up to the tune of our mom or dad whistling and singing, "GIII-IIRLS!! Tiiiime to get uu-up! Do dee, dee doo!" and then followed (usually on a Saturday) by "It's a beautiful day outside! Are you just going to sleep the day away?"

Rrrr. Just thinking about it gives me fist-clenchy, nose-scrinkly feelings. ...Ahh, but no danger of that one now, not until I go home for Christmas. . .

Also, I would have to say one of my favorite ways to wake up is to the sound and smells of breakfast cooking (and specifically, bacon) drifting into my room from the kitchen where family and/or friends are talking and laughing, as in a family get-together. I like falling asleep that way, too--on the couch listening to family and friends in the background. It's very comforting.

Thoughts anyone? Write a comment--It will make me feel special. = )
