Night 1 Without My Bed

Nov 09, 2012 12:54

Two crocheted afghans, one put on top of the other. These were to sleep on top of. A quilt, and a fleece blanket to go over me. And a pillow. This was my "bed" last night...and will be for the next 14 nights, as well.

Sleeping on the floor was no big deal when I was a kid. Now that I'm an adult, my poor "old" bones can't take that crap! I feel for you. This sacrifice has got to be difficult!

Thank you for the support. Yeah, just one day in, and already, I can tell this particular sacrifice is going to be hard.

I don't believe that giving up your bed means that you must sleep on the floor. It simply means that you must sleep somewhere else--a sofa, a recliner or even the futon. Anything that is NOT your bed would do.
