Default bad battery?

i have been disconnecting hot wires on everything i have personally installed and still...every morning my car is ALMOST dead. it has just enough power to turn over once then it seems like the alternator charges the battery a little bit and then it turns over stronger and stronger and finally starts. then it runs perfectly fine. so is it possible for the car to run on BASICALLY just the alternator? if so then maybe my battery is gone. it does tend to ride between 13v and the red section while driving too. what do ya'll think?
