Nighty night

Some nights I sleep on the couch. We’re fine, but I don’t sleep well now that I’m old, and he sometimes shows off how quickly he can fall asleep with that passive-aggressive-not-quite-a-snore that drives me crazy. And I’m hot I’m cold I’m hot I’m cold. We both sleep better when I move out to the couch.

    Really like the not-quite-a-snore description.

    Maybe it's time to decamp to the Granny Suite in your basement, where you can sleep on a proper bed and get an even better night's sleep.

      Junior lives in my basement now. And I find the couch comfortable, and the TV on something boring helps me go to sleep.

      LOL. As soon as I have $500 to throw away I'll do that.

    Not-quite-a-snore is better than full-on-100% snores.
    I particularly love my extra hour (or so) in bed in the morning after he gets up. (He's the morning person. I'm not.)

      I know - I remember my grandfather snoring. The windows shook.
