My husband and I are trying out the old fashioned way of “sleeping together”. Apparently my snoring is so bad that he can’t sleep of a night so I have suggested we sleep apart for one week to help him re-coup much needed sleep, he can sleep upstairs in the spare room and I will remain in our room. I am determined to prove that wherever he sleeps he can’t sleep and the reason for this is that he gets up 3 times a night to go to the loo which in actual fact wakes me up but I have never said anything as it would be insensitive…. WOULDN’T IT!!! Don’t worry there’s no problem with his prostate, he’s been checked……it’s a simple matter of too much amber nectar before bed. Anyway, I am rather enjoying this new way of life, I have no need/desire for sex at present but of course if I do then I’ll go upstairs sometime in 2013 and ask for it and if herequires seeing to then I’m sure he can get it done somewhere else!
I can now read until mid-night, watch anything (yes, anything) I like on TV, sort out my cupboards at 11pm, make toast with melted butter and honey at 1.30am, do face-masks, celebrity get me out of here, get the dog up on the bed etc…etc…and most important of all I need not hear one flushing chain all night and consequently I too can catch up on decades of lost sleep.
