I Needed That Sleep

[Tilly2]

Last night, I went to bed at 9.15pm and fell asleep straight away. I didn't wake up again until 6.10 am . That's nine hour of uninterrupted sleep. I must have been really tired.

Isn't it amazing how your body sorts itself out?

[Peter Pedant]

what makes you think your body is sorted out ?

[Tilly2]

Well, I obviously needed some sleep and my body did what it needed to do, Peter. Sorted.

[ummmm]

You clearly don't share a bed with someone like my OH. I don't think I've had uninterrupted sleep since the first night I stayed here.

It's so annoying.

morning till. Something subconscious takes over at times, I reckon.

My lady mother demanded separate beds in 1946 as she 'got sick of being kicked out of bed when my father relived his prison camp experiences'

FEPOWs had a much worse deal

[Maydup]

The opposite for me. I went to bed at 12.30, slept till 2.30. Paced about for an hour, read a little and resisted coming on here. I managed to sleep again from 4pm - 7pm but I feel OK. Maybe I didn't need much sleep.

[Tilly2]

Tell him to move over and stay over, ummmm.

[mallyh]

hope you had a lovely dream to go with your good sleep xx

[Tilly2]

Morning, sweety. I may be less grumpy today.

Maydup, will you have a nap during the day?

[ummmm]

I probably shouldn't moan too much. I sleep talk and sleep walk. I often freak him out :-)

[Tilly2]

I don't seem to remember my dreams, mallyh but they must have been pleasant otherwise I'd have woken up.

[Maydup]

No nap, off to work in an hour and there until 6pm tonight.

I seem to need less sleep as the years go by, but its unusual for mine to be broken. I usually need about 6 hours and am lucky enough to sleep straight through mostly.

Tilly make the most of it while you can, I rarely get more than a couple of good night's shut eye and then revert back to the old sleep pattern with waking every three hours.

[Tilly2]

I'm sure you do, ummmm. Perhaps that's why he's restless, waiting for the next conversation. Sleep walking must be frightening.

[Tilly2]

Perhaps you'll sleep better tonight, maydup. You must be exhausted.

[ummmm]

Sleep walking is more frightening for him as I never remember it :-)

He says the sleep talking is freaky because I don't blink.

[Tilly2]

Are your eyes open when you're walking and talking?

[ummmm]

Yeah.

[Tilly2]

Blimey!

[Svejk]

have you tried a straightjacket, ummmm?
