If you met my husband, it might surprise you to know, he is a little on the sensitive side. He doesn’t like confrontation. My entire first marriage was the silent treatment, so a little friction doesn’t bother me so much. Admittedly, I use this to my advantage. Craig always waves the white flag first. Which is why I NEED these pillowcases.
Craig still reads this blog (because I force him to) and my post over at Aiming Low. I wrote a post earlier in the week proposing twin beds between married couple over at Aiming Low which riled him up enough to actually post a comment. I am going out of town the next two nights, I’m hoping my pillow remains unoccupied in my absence.

Craig left a comment?!?! I’m kind of jealous.
Every once in a while I will push a button and drag him out of his supporting role in the background!
Your post at Aiming Low was pretty spot on for me. I am thinking twin beds would solve the “touching” problem (a king bed didn’t) but I would still hear the snoring unless his bed was the couch. Downstairs.
Or maybe the garage
We have the same snoring battle. And while Craig likes skin to skin, Jason hates it – I can him an independent sleeper.
I would kill to have my very own bed just for me
Add the kids to the mix and it is a whole other blog post!
Mr. Eva and I have a king bed, and after 28 years of marriage, it’s still working for us. I’m almost 68 and he’s 72 and sometimes we fall asleep holding hands.
Now there is an idea. I could definitely tolerate hand holding! Actually sounds very nice way to fall asleep.
#1 I need those pillow cases.
#2 Craig left you a comment. That’s awfully nice. Off to read it now…
I so don’t see the problem with twin beds. I’ve asked my husband if we could switch, ha! He’s not a fan.
The pillow cases are darling.
I need those pillowcases! Off to read your Aiming Low piece…
