If I get tired, I go back to bed. A win either way.Elephant's Childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06650565833097914052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3321084510373631678.post-65793896432957406822014-02-22T10:17:34.638-06:002014-02-22T10:17:34.638-06:00Oh, I would if I could, but I would probably wake ...Oh, I would if I could, but I would probably wake up husband and kids. I need a lot of sleep, but I also need a lot of alone time. I used to get up early to get it, but husband us an early bird....as is my youngest. Now, I may stay up an hour or so later than husband when I need to unwind, ut all I can do is read, or watch t.v. so az not yo disturb the family. I envy you the freedom of schedule! Dh complained once about me staying up past him.....ONCE. I told him (among otter things) that I hadn't had a bedtime since age 12, and he wasn't going to set one for me. By the same token, it isn't fair if I keep him up until 2 by running the sewing machine either.

I just at least want to feel some sense of accomplishment and not fall further behind than I seem to stay all the time. Well, I am glad you came here.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14991571309786149363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3321084510373631678.post-11446241954612913082014-02-22T04:51:49.231-06:002014-02-22T04:51:49.231-06:00J,

If there were anyone upstairs, nothing down here would not be heard. I could bowl down here and it was not audible up there. My bedroom is has three rooms between it and laundry and kitchen. The toddler had the dining room for a bedroom, and she slept through anything. (The kitchen is large enough to eat in.) Back then, I rarely worked much in the middle of the night. It is almost five and hair is still damp. Going to cook breakfast in about two minutes. I ate more chocolate chips.
