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?

Make him sleep in another room first to test your hypothesis.

Seems a bit mean to just kick him out.

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.

@Kindheartedguy: escape her? Crikey.

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