Waking up and thinking it's a different time.

I woke up too early this morning but was convinced it was time to get up. I blame the moon! You see, the moon was very bright in the early hours this morning, so bright that some of the birds started singing because they thought it was dawn. Just recently the time we need to get up and the actual dawn have coincided. I thought I'd slept throught the alarm (not unusual!) and because the birds were singing it must be at least seven but it was actually five o'clock! Five! (and I look like that emoticon at five, I really do). I got out of bed and was all for putting the kettle on and letting the dog and chickens out, feeding the cats and cooking the breakfast but, fortunately, my husband stopped me because he knew the alarm hadn't gone off. I went back to bed still listening to the birds chirping away because they'd been fooled by the moon. Have you ever gotten up out of bed thinking it was time to get moving only to discover you were hours early? What made you think it was time to be up?
