You know, it really stinks to want to be a really good person and put a ton of thought and effort into it, only to find out that you sock. It's really odd to hear other people's interpretation of my actions and the feelings they represent, when I would claim to be feeling something very different than what is interpreted. I feel like typhoid Mary. But I'd rather know, so don't hold back.
Okay, so it's unanimous. Or at least three out of three, but that's good enough for me.
So, please, for example... We have an issue with sleeping together. He has done a sleep study - twice. He does not have sleep apnea but moderate snoring. His big thing is that he twitches a lot, like 47 times an hour. You know, that thing you do when someone startles you awake? Except not quite that bad and he does it all on his own. It's his sleep problem, but being in the same bed affects my sleep. He's a grown man. Short of sneaking sleeping pills into his late night snack, I don't know what I can do. I've encouraged, I've suggested, but by this point, I feel like I'm nagging. I don't want to take sleeping pills or wear ear plugs because I don't feel safe, and I don't feel like I'm available for S (we live in a tornado track and on a faultline; just had a small earthquake last week that H slept through -- go figure!)
So when H says to me that God wants us to sleep in the same bed, what do I say?
