This thread is inspired by a beloved poster who said he managed to sleep all through yesternight.
How about you, do you sleep through the night?
Each morning, around 2 am, it's as if a hand shakes me awake.
I became accustomed to arising at that time to take care of my semi-invalid mother.
She passed nearly 12 years ago, but my body? mind? still thinks I have to get it done.
For what it's worth, I go to sleep around 11PM, pee at 12:30AM and then again around 4AM.
Maybe it's the male prostate thing but I do pee like a racehorse (maybe it's the late-night beer).

I very rarely have trouble sleeping. At home I get into bed and am out in a few minutes.
I travel a lot for work too and usually sleep well at hotels too. On my last trip the rest of my traveling companions were awakened every night by a train, I didn't hear anything.
i do sleep with a fan on at home and in hotels put the fan on continuous run.
How about you, do you sleep through the night? - usually, yes, about 8 hours sleep.
But I've hurt my ankle/foot recently and last night I was in pain and I only got 4 hours sleep. I woke up at 5 am and couldn't get back to sleep again; then I slept from 9 am to 11 am.
Rub, that's my estranged mate to a T.
JustFine, one of my grandsons could sleep through a tornado!
LUHE, I'm sorry about that. Pain seems to worsen at night.
Thanks, Snowbird.
Pain seems to worsen at night - yes, I'm finding this out.
Yesterday I took it easy, walking to the town's library to do a job search online (remembering to take my shoe off when I was sat at the computer), then I walked home and rested my foot. Last night, for some reason, it was agony - like it seized up.
I'm currently watching my football team play (well, reading The Guardian's minute by minute update because I don't have a TV licence) and working my way through a bottle of French red - that'll hopefully deal with the pain!

Take care, friend.

I have just been putting off the prostate exam since I have this nightmare of a doctor repeatedly checking my prostate while he has both of his hands on my hips.

I feel best when I get 9 hours of sleep. Happens about twice a week. 8 hours is OK but I feel a bit tired. I worked 42 years full time and didn't learn this until I retired and slept without an alarm clock.
I get up at least once at night for the male prostate thing as well.
Mercy, Rub!
Mr. Fred, you seem to be doing ok.
