I have always been a morning person. Probably started when I was a kid and had to get up to milk two old cows by hand, and feed and water the chickens, before catching the schoolbus at 6:45 a.m. Now I get up at 5:30. I simply love the early morning. I will have a cup of tea, while reading a little before going outside to work in the gardens. I can usually get in about 2 hours gardening before I head to my play (I mean job)of machine quilting.
