"Dad snores and corrective surgery is considered elective by our insurance and not covered."

Honestly, I do snore like a bear, and this is why we have a “bail out bed” in another room. Even I use it sometimes when she’s snoring. Like last night, for instance.

The "Bail out Bed" was a flawed idea because no one wants to get up and relocate in the middle of the night and interrupt their sleep cycles.

He snores, he always snores, tonight won't be any different, so why don't I just start in the bail out bed so once I fall asleep I stay asleep and the human freight train I shacked up with doesn't wake me up.

He finally got a Cpap last year for his obstructive sleep apnoea.

but we'd slept in separate beds for 5 years, and I was used to sleeping alone and having full control over my temperature and I'm a fidgety sleeper, so we couldn't get used to sharing a bed again.

I think both of us being well rested and refreshed each day is more important to the health of our relationship than sharing a bed. If we're not fatigued, headachey and cranky, we can spend quality time together outside of bed.
