I woke alone with Henry by my feet and my husband and younger son had left for the day. Daniel was sound asleep. I sleep in a small bed in a room by myself, with Henry my dog. I can't sleep in my own bed because I snore. I have been told that I can sleep there any time I want, as long as I don't snore.
I can't ever make such a promise and I have repeatedly caused him great stress in the night with my snoring. So I don't sleep in my bed. He snores too but I don't mind it. Funny how that is.
So a person who needs to be comforted and loved sleeps alone in punishment to herself because of snoring. The doctor says I snore because I am too overweight. I don't feel like I will overcome that.
But at the very least I asked him and my so to please always say goodbye before you leave. I was thrilled when he said he was sorry and would do so for now on. He said that he loved me and just didn't want to wake me. The next day he came and kissed me goodbye and I was so happy that he understood.
It only happened that one day. I woke today and everyone was gone except me and Daniel. Henry was sleeping on my feet. He is such a source of comfort. And I had to get up and take my meds and drink some coffee by myself.
The sun is peeking through the clouds and the birds are singing. I gave myself a hug and said a prayer. So many of us are just not on the same page in life.
Always hug and kiss those you love when you are leaving them for the day. And coming home from the day.
You never know. So now I face my day.
