Read until nodding off, 11,12,1am ish, (must not try to sleep before then as will toss and turn for hours) up between 4/5 and then cat nap till 7.30ish. And then people say why do you get up so late! Sheesh.
I was up at 6am, went back to have tea and listen to the news, bad idea😀 My mum hardly ever slept, When I was looking after her with cancer, the nurses told me to keep giving her the morphine, she asked my why she was having good nights sleeps, 😀 My dad, he could go to bed and as he put it, empty his mind, he was off in minutes, not so when I was nursing him, he was awake at all times, I hardly slept at all for that 2 years.
I think of going to bed as a waste of time, much more interesting things to do than laying in bed for a third of the day/night, if it wasn’t for my OH I would’nt use the bed, I would just have power naps on the sofa, I think I would have been well suited to nightwork, or am I just a 🧛♀️ 🧛♂️

Not age. Oh sleeps very well thank you very much but sometimes snores so loudly I don't so much. When he's in full snoring form I read then doze off when he gets up. Makes for disjointed days. Sometimes I just move to a spare bed but they're both covered in the contents of the very large built-in cupboard in the room I'm decorating.....

Had a C**P night for no reason just wake sleep wake sleep on and on, then up at six for that I have no choice I have to be up to start and get the wife's first lot of pain killers sorted have to be taken at least an hour before we can start to get her out of bed
