seperate beds

Tis the season
Not the season of starting a new year
Tis the season for sinus infections

For several weeks now, David is woken up by his wife at all strange hours of the night.
"Roll over."
"You're snoring so bad"
"Roll over to the other side"
"Go blow your nose and get some nose spray"

David is always plagued by sinus issues.  It gets worse at this time of the year and turning him from a light, occasional snore to a full blown 8 octave log sawerI know he's sick and he has my sympathy...just not a bedtime, at 1AM when I'm staring at the walls and praying that he'll stop.
It's been so bad lately that I skip all the nudges in his back to roll over and go straight to:
"Will you please go sleep on the couch?"


During the holiday season we did some traveling and due to accommodations, we slept in different beds for a couple of nights.
I'm not going to lie-it was nice.  Real nice.
It's amazing how well a wife can sleep without her husband howling in her ear :)

When we got back from vacation and we were once again stuck in one bed together, I found myself starting at the wall again listening to the kodiak bear my husband whom I love and adore and thought:

Can't we just sleep in separate beds from now on?
