sleeping: Tom and I will do a snuggle thing where he lies on his back and I curl up on the side of him, rest my head on his chest, and rest my arm around his chest/waist, and he holds me with both arms (or reads while I doze). I generally get half asleep this way and then he rolls me over to my own side, because it's very rare that he can fall asleep like that.
I also don't generally fall fully asleep like that but it's hard for me to get to sleep unless we do that to start.
Then, we keep to our own sides of the bed (a queen).
I woke up with a headache that shows no signs of quitting. ah well.
{{{Raq}}} I hope Mal lets you sleep tonight.
Yay, vw!!!
Dave was on my computer last night researching a job he has an interview for on Thursday, so aside from stealing five minutes on the computer here and there when he needed a break, I got a ton of stuff done. I love the sight of empty boxes! I wish I had been rewarded with a little more sleep for all my hard work though.
Timelies, all. This morning is so far very gronktastic.
My SiL seems to be okay -- they gave her valium on top of the morphine, and she finally went to sleep. Her pressure started coming down, too. At this point, they're thinking it's a delayed reaction to the epidural -- her spinal fluid was clean and healthy, so no infection. Still, scary. Thanks for the all ~ma, guys.

I can't do face-to-face sleeping, but we always snuggle before sleep. We usually spoon, and then one of us will roll over when we're near dozing off. The most we touch during the night is sometimes ankles, one hooked over the other.
we are 95% likely moving back to the DC area for our next tour, which means dealing with the insane-o housing market there
Yay for Raq being back in the States! At some point!
Someone remind me to breathe. Lie to me. Tell me everything is gonna work out and be ok.
vw, Breathe! Everything is going to be fine, and I am not lying.
I am mostly anti-snuggling while sleeping. I have no problem with snuggling on the couch watching a movie. Or a little cuddling before sleep. But when it's time to sleep? I want my space, so I can toss and turn and not have to worry about if I'm bothering you, or worry about where my arm goes, or think "Well, this is *almost* comfortable...". No.

Well, Raq, the good news is, the housing market seems to be softening, possibly in anticipation of going down by the time you get back!
I should already be in the shower so that I won't be late for therapy for once. Don't wanna. Too tired.
What's wrong?
Just totally and completely overwhelmed.
Try not to think of everything at once, vw. And breathe. It'll all work out, one way or another.
sj, get your ass in the shower. Now! MOVE! *giggles*
I woke up with a headache, as well. It looks like breakfast will be coffee and aleve.
