{August 21, 2013}   The sofa is too comfy!

Ok, we may have already talked about this, but it’s so true, I dozed off again!

I don’t know about your sofa/couch, but this one is so darned cozy, you can easily fall asleep and not even realize it, well, until you wake up again!

I had the same problem with the sofa in my house in Atlanta! I could sit and work on the sofa until the cows came home, which is a great saying, but doesn’t apply here since we don’t work with cows, but…

If I were to lay down to watch a movie, just recline to get more comfortable, I may close my eyes thinking I was just blinking and wake up three hours later, not realizing where the time had gone! It sucks you in!

Case in point, I was laying down to write to you tonight and I don’t know what happened, but all of a sudden I woke up and DCM was saying goodnight! What? What happened? Oh, ok, I’ll be in soon, I still have to blog (and now it’s after midnight!

Sometimes though, you have to admit, it is the most comfortable place ever! As long as your sofa/couch is long enough for you to stretch out on, you can get the most intense good nights sleep ever!

There have been times that both DCM and or I have fallen asleep on the sofa, we don’t always wake each other up when it’s time to go into the bedroom for lights out; either we realize that the other person is comfortable and sleeping soundly that they will get up on their own and come to bed later or…the other person is sleeping so soundly, there is no way to wake them up!

What about when you’re sick, isn’t the sofa the most awesomest place to be on the planet? Propped up on some pillows, wrapped in blankets, cup of hot soup or tea to help keep you warm and bad TV or movies on to help you forget that your sick, what could be better? It’s a nice change from the bedroom where you know you’re going to be later, maybe can’t move from that spot, but need to look at something else and stretch out differently.

Embrace the sofa, don’t fight it! We almost become like toddlers who don’t want to nap, we might miss something, but I’m here to tell you, napping for anyone over five is very underrated and if you fall asleep, it’s your body trying to tell you something!

Hmm…back to the sofa or head off to bed?
