I'm not an early riser or a Virgo, but I come from good Virgo stock and am obsessed with punctuality. I think lateness is a sign of disrespect.

I echo your comment "...Dee, what a great post! I echo your comment "Hip Hip Hooray for Early Birds!", for I'm a power napper, too. Getting up at 5 am every morning, I find that I need that nap at 5 pm to make it through to the end of my day (or should I say 'evening'?) And just like you, I HATE HATE HATE being late for anything. My husband shares my frantic fear of being late, so we're always the first ones to arrive for anything. <br /><br />P.S. I'm from Northern Michigan, and while I don't need to fret too much about tornadoes, I DO worry constantly about snow! We had 2" of snow on Saturday, May 11th this year. <br /><br />~ KathleenKathleen Irene Paterkahttp://www.kathleenirenepaterka.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8702413622201051669.post-91563262682564720892013-06-24T08:15:28.472-07:002013-06-24T08:15:28.472-07:00I love this post!! :) As a Pisces, I'm not exp...I love this post!! :) As a Pisces, I'm not expected to be punctual (in fact, I think I'm expected to be half asleep and dreaming all the time) but I am always on time.

But then we moved and went from 2 min. to the freeway to 15 min. to the freeway, so I'm usually a coupla min. late. Can't get used to how long it takes me now to get to the freeway! <br /><br />I love a good nap, but we usually only nap on the weekends. My hubs LOVES to nap, and i feel too guilty napping without him during the week while he's at the office. So no naps on weekdays (unless I'm sick)!Jackie Bouchardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05854479764528604256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8702413622201051669.post-36964127230708697462013-06-24T07:44:25.733-07:002013-06-24T07:44:25.733-07:00Let's hear it for naps, being on time, and tha...Let's hear it for naps, being on time, and thanking (or blaming!) our lucky stars!
