    Outta business in 1762. We weren't even a country 🇺🇸 for another 14-19 years!

     

    It took Georgia what? Another 100 years and they had to be forced...


    But, but…there was slavery in the north as well!!  So it’s literally the same as South Carolina and Georgia.  😏

     

    I went to the slave market when the wife and I stayed in Charleston for a week.  It was kind of like a farmer’s market with crafts and such.  It was a bit chilling, but overall a very important experience to me being a black man.  Charleston is such a beautiful city, btw.

    Sleep Divorce?

    I did it for several months because my wife started snoring like crazy 2 years ago.  I didn't like the other bed so I came back and wear ear plugs in bed.


    My wife was wearing ear plugs, and eye mask, and sometimes noise cancelling head phones.  A mouse farting in the next room could wake her up.  
     

    I was always fine with her snoring provided I could fall asleep prior to her really getting revved up.  My only issue was when I would wake up to take a leak or something.  I couldn’t get back to sleep.

    some people love a separate room.  We have a guest room with a bathroom, so when one if is sick, we just move to the other room.  when i'm sleeping by myself, i get the best night of sleep, but after a few days it does get old.

     

    you can possibly get over the snoring.  have you had any sleep studies done?  for mild to moderate apnea, you can have a mandibular repositioning device.  it's really just a set of retainers you wear, and they stop your jaw from resting on your airway while you sleep.  for moderate to severe apnea, you typically want to use a cpap if you can tolerate it.  


    Yes, both of us have had sleep apnea studies done.  The results were negative for both of us, but my amount of “breathing disturbances” was at the higher end of the average range.  I suppose I should have another done, but I didn’t snore as much (according to my wife) after losing over 35 pounds this winter/spring.

    I prefer home divorce

     

    I love the woman but I prefer if I could wake up in the house next-door to her.. And just come over for breakfast

    This is funny.  We haven’t had any problems arranging rendezvouses for some bedroom fun.

    Sleep Divorce?

    My wife and I have a wonderful marriage and two great kids.  There have been minor bumps in the road, of course, but overall we have been very happily married for over 13 years.

     

    Over the years we have had problems sharing a bed.  I snore and my wife also snores like a lumberjack, but she’s a light sleeper and I could sleep through a dump truck crashing into our living room.  After years of her pounding on the mattress to wake me up, or one of us sleeping in the guest bedroom, we decided finally that we would just sleep in different rooms.  It has worked out very well, although I do miss having her next to me at night and waking up next to her in the morning.
     

    Then I was watching the news the other day and it turns out that this “sleep divorce” thing is a trend.  Like I said, it is working well for us, but I could see how it could lead to relationship problems for some.

     

    Has anyone else taken this step in their relationship?  Thoughts?

    Do you golf?

    Most of my friends are really good at golf.  Two of them actually have/had their PGA tour card at one point.  I always get stuck playing with them for bachelor party trips, class reunions, and other events.  I enjoy the game, but I’m absolutely horrible.

     

    I had a really bad experience playing at Ravenwood in Rochester a few years back.  I was just taking too long, and eventually the course ranger came along and told me that I couldn’t play anymore.  Even though we were letting faster groups play through, I guess a lot of people were complaining.  I sat in the golf cart and drank beers while my friends finished the round, but it was a real bummer.  They refunded my money when I got back to the pro shop, but I haven’t played since.  I do like me some putt-putt though.
