I’m grateful that my husband is ok with me going to sleep early via /r/gratitude

My ex would get super pi$$ed at me if I would fall asleep before him.

He wanted sex before he’d go to sleep every night and if I fell asleep before him then that meant no booty for him.

Looking back on it now I can’t believe that was my normal for over twenty years.

I remember sneaking little naps.

It felt like when I was a kid. Anyone remember sitting at your school desk, in class, and perfecting the art of holding your pencil upright to make it look like you were writing? Then resting your head on your other hand just enough to NOT catch the teachers eye. And playing that balancing act between “I’m aware of the sounds around me, but I’m letting my eyes shut just enough to feel that relaxation of sweet sleep”. Did any of y’all do this as a kid?

Anyway – I’m so glad I don’t have to be sneaky about being sleepy anymore.

NEVER AGAIN! Hallelujah!!
