What is a discreet way of waking myself?

Squizzy@lemmy.world to No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world – 86 points –

I need to get up without waking the wife and kids, I got a smartwatch to vibrate and it woke her. The alarm is always going to wake the house.

Is there anything else?

Sounds like you need to change the time you do the workout.

Why because my two options are don't get up early or sleep separately?

Because it sounds like she's sacrificing a lot to nurse a new baby, so maybe you could sacrifice a little bit for her so she can get at least a bit of sleep.

Maybe mind your own business and stop making presumptions about my family life you self righteous prick.

I want to wake an hour before everyone to do some exercising so I'm not eating into the family time. The time would otherwise be spent sleeping like everyone else.

I honestly can't believe the audacity of your reply.

"Mind your own business on a public forum where I chose to disclose information!" How rich.

It's based on absolutely no information that I provided, just your apparent want for feeling superior.

"Separate rooms is definitely not an option. It's not so much super light sleeper just she is nursing and I'd like to get a workout in before everyone else wakes. If I wake the kids we're all screwed if I wake her I ruin what peace she gets."

This you?

Dude, I wasn't even trying to be rude or confrontational, just answering a question you asked about why you might consider changing your schedule, from a different perspective. You coming out firing from both hips about it is sus as fuck.

How is it sus for me to be annoyed by your comment about my partners sacrifices and my lack of sacrifices. If you didnt even try to be rude and came out with that then you're just a naturally rude and arrogant person.

I didn't mention sacrifices, and I didn't discuss our living arrangements nor should I have to.

I am trying to find something to wake me without waking others and you took that to be selfish of me. I'm trying to wake early to excercise, something that benefits everyone, without interrupting anyone else's sleep and you took that to be selfish and said I should sacrifice more.

You can be sus all you want you are very rude and make assumptions. Your first inclination is to think that I'm not willing to sacrifice sleeping beside my partner, without considering that my partner wouldn't like to sleep alone or that the baby sleeps in our room and that I take part in the overnight feeding.

You're shitty attitude struck a nerve.
