Life, it will end one day, I need to live it as much as I can. I am older now, I still work a little, but I can start work pretty much when I want except for fixed commitments/appointments. Yet I still get up before dawn each day.

Not wanting the dog to pee in the house.

@Meep70 It's a perfectly acceptable reason to get up in the morning.
That, and coffee.

Coffee. Writing. Sun rises. And sometimes? Sometimes I sleep until my alarm goes off.

Good coffee is worth living for.

I have a water urn, electric kettle, and French press on my bedside table. You are preaching to the choir. (And yes, I also enjoy irony!)
