Aloha Friday & Friday Follow


An Island Life hosts this meme. Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.

My Question: Do you wake up using an alarm clock or do you just wake up on your own? And if you have kids - do they have their own alarm clocks?

My Answer: I totally need an alarm clock to wake up! And even then it doesn't always work. The other day, I totally overslept and my son missed the bus. Let's just say when that happens it is a pain in the neck. So I decided it is time my 13 year old son has his own alarm clock. Now in case I hit the snooze - he can be the back up!

  1. I have an alarm clock set just in case, but I almost always wake up before it goes off. My kids set their own alarms, but still depend on me to come in and make sure they are up.

  4. I don't have anytime that I have to be up-Evan usually wakes up before Isabella and comes and crawls in bed with me.

  11. On school days I wake up to an alarm, but most of the time I get up before it goes off. On Mondays and Fridays I pretty much sleep until my girls get up.

  13. Currently I don't use an alarm clock but if I really need to get up early I set the alarm on my cell phone.

    My 13 year old daughter has her own alarm clock. If she didn't she'd probably sleep in and I would end up being her alarm clock!

    Thanks for stopping by Healthy Moms and leaving us a comment!

  14. My kids are my alarm clock. If someone has been nice enough to keep them overnight, I have to set an alarm otherwise I think I would sleep all day!

  15. I set an alarm but I usually wake up five minutes before it goes off. My children all have their own alarm clocks but they usually sleep through them and I have to wake them up anyway. If I don't they miss the bus and then I have to drive them. When the sun rises earlier I won't need an alarm at all. I won't be able to sleep past 5 am.

  17. I set the alarm in my Blackberry as a back up. However, I wake up every morning about 2 minutes before the alarm goes off. :)

  18. I usually wake up on my own. Unless I'm really tired, then my crying toddler will usually wake me.

  19. Happy Friday Follow and Aloha Friday (better late than never)!

    We all have our own alarm clocks set at different times. Hubby usually gets up before I do and I get up on my own. The alarm clock for me is back up.
