Pity party : table for one

I'm used to it now, DF has always done shift work, right through our relationship, so I have always pretty much slept by myself 50% of the time.
Though after he had 18 months off work it did take a bit of getting used to when he went back to shift work.
I get to steal his pillow when he isn't here : D

It sucks at the beginning. DH was in the army so I slept alone a lot, but I did get used to it. Eventually I preferred it

haha

It's only for a week so I think I'm just being a big sook lol.
I think it's worse because I'm in a whole new place.

Yeah when I'm home and DP works afternoon shift I lie stealing her pillow

Every time dp flies in or out I have a hard time adjusting, and spend the night longing for him to leave or come back!

Well last night was a bit better... I was absolutely stuffed from my first shift so I did some homework and made dinner then watche some tv in bed.
Got to sleep about one and woke up at 6.

DP leaves early for work in the morning, at first I would stay on my side. Now I end up with limbs everywhere being a bed hog. Its my only chance. Last night I had an elbow dug in between my shoulder blades for hours.

When I was in and out of hospital last year DP would constantly tell me how much he loved having the bed to himself in the first time since we got together. He was having movie nights (laying in bed eating junk and watching movies), laying diagonal etc etc. So much fun he didn't want to share a bed when I got back lol.
