I’m throwing my husband into this hole I had dug in the back yard.
At 2 a.m. this morning the light went on. My husband was sitting up, pulling the covers off me as he rummaged through the sheet, blanket and comforter, muttering. I determined that he was, in fact, awake.
We played a game of ’20 Questions,’ since he wouldn’t tell me directly what the problem was. FINALLY, after I got up, we straightened the covers, and I again asked him what he was looking for, after we determined he wasn’t cold, or too hot, or….. He finally said he was looking for the rope that went around the comforter, pointing to the stuffing inside it. We discussed THAT for a good 5 minutes before he agreed that the comforter didn’t HAVE a ‘rope’ running around the edge on the inside, that we didn’t need or want one, and that we should go back to sleep.
I was so frustrated with him at that point that it took me a good hour to calm down – and warm up – enough to try to go to sleep again.
When I got up this morning and came downstairs, he said, ‘hi,’ but had the towel over his eyes and was under his throw in his recliner.
The hole awaits…
Haha!! We had a similar night last night when my hubby, Richard said the blanket closest to him was falling down around the bottom of the bed! Ha!
He has two blankets on him and no top sheet. Then we have a king size quilt over both of us.
I just have a top sheet and blanket on me and then the quilt, whatever part remains on me from him pulling it over on his side throughout the night. That was one reason we bought twin beds 2 years ago. Ha!

We decided that since my husband wants a freezer, we’ll put the dual control electric blanket on the bed when we change the sheets. Then we can each do our thing. It won’t stop him from dreaming or waking me up in the middle of the night, but at least we should both sleep better MOST of the time. :0)

Sounds like a great plan, Linda. I got my husband a twin electric blanket too. Now, I am looking at hand warmers for him for during the day. (Though I handed him my iPhone today and told him, “If you would use YOUR phone more, your hands wouldn’t be cold!” Ha! I was in an especially snarky mood today I guess.

You and me, both, Sheila. On warmers, I find the HotHands brand great. They sell boxes of hand warmers and toe warmers, etc. at reasonable prices. https://www.amazon.com/HotHands-Hand-Warmer-Bulk-Pairs
