I Am Always Exhausted

[b]Well, that was unexpected[/b]

One of my Christmas presents, & actually the one I was most excited about getting, was an activity/ sleep tracker. Frightfully boring to some I suppose but who doesn't want a nice bum? & I'm going to be forty in, ummm... two & a half years.

Oh my God!


Anyway, I managed after much awkwardness to get my hands, or rather my wrist on it last night. Eventually got it all set up, tuned in, & switched on. So here my are.

Altogether between REM & deep sleep you're supposed to get at least 45% in a night. I got 19% apparently. Which would explain the daily occurrence of zombie Sonnet.

Sleep is obviously connected to everything else in your life. You should eat well, & I do. You should exercise, I do that too. That leaves only one thing; stress.

So basically my activity/ sleep tracker has told me to murder my boyfriend/ bane of my existence in cold blood, then & only then will I be able to snooze peacefully. I'd need an iron clad plan to get away with it though.

Any thoughts?

Hi Sonnet, I have a Fitbit too, I have watched what I am eating, walking for exercise, and drinking plenty of water.
I've lost 13 pounds (UK) since starting in September.
I'm very happy to have one 😃😃

40! Holy fuck! You`re going to be real old!!!! 😱 I was that age once.... many years ago. ;)
Sonnet · 41-45, F
Oy! You cheeky swine. Lol! I just can't think where the last twenty years have gone. I blinked.
Degbeme · 70-79, M
@Sonnet: Well sweetie I wanna know where the last 40 years have gone. 🤔
Sonnet · 41-45, F
@Degbeme: I bet all our lost socks are there too.

Introduce him to my mother in law and then I will teach you to drive a truck.

@goliathtree: Want to keep it that they though... But more importantly when did you see my bum?! Lol!
goliathtree · 56-60, M
in my fantasies, which are generally quite accurate.
Sonnet · 41-45, F
@goliathtree: fair enough. Lol!

Very interested in your sleep meter. What brand and where did you get it?
Sonnet · 41-45, F
Just a wee Fitbit, it wasn't overly expensive. You can get them in electronic stores or order online.
turbineman40 · 80-89, M
@Sonnet: thanks I will look into it
I didnt know those things track your sleeps. I should get one.
Kinda. Some guys think im a man😖

@Calliope: Lol! Ridiculous

I can assure you. My likeness is very much like the avatars I pick. I don't need to catfish because women see right through me (even online)

So .. If he's the cause of your stress and thereby your lack of sleep .. The question is, what are you going to do to fix the issues with your BF ??
SW-User
If only mostly .. And if whatever's wrong is enough to be interrupting your sex life (re comment above), that's really all it takes.

Don't let problems fester, they seldom work themselves out and in fact usually deepen if ignored.

Good luck .. and keep working for that perfect bum 😉
SW-User
Lol...that is a whole lot of fragmented thoughts right there. It might be time to go back to sleep. ;)
Sonnet · 41-45, F
I am so so tired.
SW-User
Make him sleep in another room first to test your hypothesis.
Sonnet · 41-45, F
Seems a bit mean to just kick him out.
SW-User
Mean? Try being the guy when you are thrashing about the whole night.

My wife and I sleep in separate rooms now. Partially because our relationship is broken but also because I snore.

We have been traveling all week and I slept on the couch twice and floor twice to escape her.
Sonnet · 41-45, F
@Kindheartedguy: escape her? Crikey.

I don't trash at all. Apparently I hardly move.

@Sonnet: Remember that SEX has a LOT to do with how well you sleep..
Sonnet · 41-45, F
Excellent point
