The Early Bird Gets The Worm ( or in my case the coffee)

United States
September 26, 2020 7:57am CST
Happy Saturday everyone! I'm up early and the coffee is brewing. My daughter is still asleep and so are the pups. The only sound in the house right now is the coffee maker. Sometimes I like being the only one awake and can enjoy the serenity that comes with a quiet house. It gives me time to just pray and/or meditate before the day gets started. Normally my day is filled with noise (tv, radio, barking dogs, etc) so it's nice to just focus on the quiet now and then. Do you like the quiet or prefer being surrounded by sounds?

I like quiet noise - the sounds associated with a quiet morning, traffic, birds, nature. I'm glad you had a peaceful morning.

Mostly sound - music or tv for me. But once in awhile peacefulness

I like to get up early,make coffee and let the cats out. Then I have quiet, too.

I like quiet except when the grandchildren are here. They make lots of noise.

It's always quiet at my house, even when hubs gets up before me. As soon as I am up, we are out the door. Back now enjoying coffee. Happy Saturday!!!

Depends on the situation but right now, I'd prefer silence over noise.

If I spend too much time around 'noise,' I worry my tinnitus will start screaming (like "the echoes from the amplifiers ringing in my head").

I love natures sounds the most. That is sometimes pure quiet. Other times it can be very busy.

I like quiet when possible. I do like white noise though.

I prefer quiet but enjoy the sounds of nature. I prefer nature over people.

I'd prefer quiet mornings. I tend to get annoyed by noise at the point of having headaches.

My daughter is still asleep but my son was up an hour before me. He’s the early worm in my house always has been. I’m exhausted after a long hike yesterday but am going to take my niece and nephews for a long walk today while I babysit them later. I don’t like a lot of noise. Thankfully my house is pretty quiet most the time.
