You still up, or up already?
For me it’s the latter.

LOL.
Interesting how, since I retired my sleeping hasn't changed all that much other than a shift to earlier bed time. Of course, not taking call is a bonus.
I'm in bed ~ 9 PM and wake at 4-5 or so. When I was working, I'd be up until 10 and up at 5 so I could be at work by 6.

I dislike getting up early in the week enormously, but rather it enjoy it at the weekend.
I'm not quite at Jon's level, but the drive from Rhode Island has meant getting up at about 5 on the days I commute in a vain attempt to avoid the Boston traffic. I don't work anywhere near Boston, but I still get to drive with the folks who presumably commute about 60 miles every day.

Just got up. We go to bed around 10 usually, up 6:45 to 7:30

I get up between 6:00 & 6:30
I have roughly a 1 minute drive to golf, without traffic.
It is a little faster coming home because it is 2 rights instead of 2 lefts.
We have frost today, so I won't start until 9:00.

I can't wait to retire. I think I've got another 6 years to go, or maybe 3 if I really push it.
My mum used to say, 'don't wish your life away....' but sometimes it's a little challenging.

I was up and down x4 last night. Old dog had to go out, fire needed stoking, darn cat was having himself a ball and I was watching an episode of War Factories that had just dropped on YT.
My watch said I slept four hours. That's about the usual.

I usually retire a lot sooner than I fall asleep. Will go to bed around 10-10:30P, read until 12-1A, then sleep until 3A or so, then be awake for awhile, then sleep until 7-7:30A -- just like in early times before the invention of street lighting.

In the words of the great Ben Franklin, there will be sleep aplenty in the grave.
That's how I look at things, too.
The rest of the family, not so much. Mrs. Phibes is an Olympic level sleeper, and I frequently see my kids raise themselves after I've been up for about 6 hours, only to be told how tired they are. It's a good job I'm not prone to making off-the-cuff remarks.
