My kingdom for an earplug.
OK – here is a scenario for you…
You and your partner/husband go to bed at 10pm.
He puts his earplugs in, you don’t.
You are up to the toddler at 11.30pm, 2am and 4am.
Upon returning to bed each time you are confronted with the snore monster from hell and it takes a good half hour to get back to sleep each time.
The 4 year old is awake at 6am and you get up to start the day.
Husbands alarm for work goes off at 7am.
Husband wanders out into kitchen and says……
a) Here honey, I know you’ve had a rough night, you drink this fresh coffee – you need it more than me.
b) Got a coffee already? I’ll put the machine on for you. Oh, and while you’re there, can you get me one too?
c) OMG I am soooooo tired. I soooooo didn’t get enough sleep last night. I really neeed a coffee (insert pathetic saggy eyes for sympathy)
I know which one mine does.
Every single morning.
What about yours???

Yep. Cast from the same mould. Mould?? Giggle.
yes. yes. YES! BUT, I make him bring me coffee in bed.
Cause I pull the ‘I am wearing a Roboboot’ sympathy card. It won’t last.
Hi! Came over from the Hop and have enjoyed what I see 🙂 I think I’ll stick around a while!
My hubs snores like a train wreck AND has something similar to restless leg syndrome–his limbs twitch and jerk all night—add a night of my hot flashes to that and you are talking major raccoon eyes in the morning! I feel you pain! Just voted for you and am now following you via GFC! http://Menopausalmother.blogspot.com
My husband almost got punched in the face one morning when he awoke and said, “Well, last night was a good night, wasn’t it?” I had been up 5 times in seven hours. I feel your pain. Found you at YKIHAYHT.
I am most grateful my husband brings me a cup of tea in bed most days … totally ducking right no and I”ll give my sympathy vote.
Oh my, I think you have quite a dilemma there. I wondered why you don’t put on earplugs, and then I remembered you have to hear your toddler if ever he cries or wakes up. Maybe, for now, you have to endure your hubby’s snoring. But when your boy grows older, and he doesn’t need constant monitoring, you should buy yourself a good pair of earplugs and make up for all the sleep you missed!
