I only have one teacher I remember. Miss Ruby, in the 5th grade. She let me do a lot of book reports so I really liked her! :-)

I disliked school in the 1950s and 60s. However, Sister Denita - 4th & 6th grades- was a treasure. She was young and really connected with us students, especially those of us who were considered outcasts.

So long ago! I remember my own teaching years, but my teachers are lost in the past.

I just feel like arising at the same time helps me stay on schedule and feel like I am seizing the day. Also, I can NEVER sleep in when I try anyway.

I have tried to get up later but cannot stay up in the evening. I got up at the same time for many years while working

I'm retired, and unless I have a specific appointment, I get up whenever I wake up, and that depends on how late I stayed up the night before

Approximately, but as retirees we're delightfully flexible most all the time.

If I go to bed later, I will wake up later.

It is said that you should always wake up at the same time. Never has worked for me.
