If You Cannot Sleep

If you cannot sleep
because your husband snores,
you'll move into the spare room.

In the middle of the night,
your son will awake,
and enter your bedroom.

Since your husband is asleep,
he will not have your son go pee
or return to his own bedroom.

Because your son did not pee,
he will now pee
in your bed.

Your husband will awake with a shock
and come wake you to assist.

You will strip the bed,
but decide at 1am,
you are in no mood to change the sheets,
so you will suggest he sleep in the spare room.

He will go to sleep,
while you settle your son,
change his clothes,
and help him go back to sleep.

You will finally crawl into bed
in the spare room,
only to find you cannot sleep,
because your husband is snoring.

The End

I so have been there. My husband has sleep apnea and before he got his cpac machine I slept in the spare bedroom / couch many nights.
