Last night I was lying in bed and I had the TV on a music station because that’s been my new favorite way to have the TV on recently. As I lay there and got my covers and pillows all adjusted just how I like them it hit me…
I’m going to be married in less than 3 months.
I won’t have a big bed all to myself anymore.
6 pillows might be extreme considering I’ll have another (larger) person sharing the bed with me.
Just sharing the bed period will be “extreme” for me.
It won’t be so easy to just hang out at bedtime with the TV on and lights on, while talking on the phone, etc.
I’ll have someone else to consider. Someone who’ll have a much earlier alarm call than I will.
If that someone sharing a sleeping space with me snores, I’ll have to deal with it.
It won’t just be the sound of my own breathing anymore.
It won’t just be “me” anymore.
It will be me AND my husband. My partner. My mate.
I’m gonna be a wife.
And that is crazy to consider sometimes.

It can all seem a little crazy when you first get married. Each person has to make some adjustments. But I don’t think you’ll miss having the bed to yourself. Just think…Someone to sit next to in bed while you stay up late watching movies together, someone to kiss goodnight, and cuddle you when you wake up in the morning. Marriage is such a sweet blessing, it’s worth all the adjustments. (and ear plugs work great for the whole snoring issue).

Yes. It is. But it will be wonderful. As long as you aren’t up ungodly hours of the night.

Yes! I had the thought too about a couple months before we got married. It’s no longer two but one. The hardest one for us is my husband sleeps with the lights off and I like the lights on. Well, we learn to compromise
And i can assure you everything will come together naturally.
Now, it’s quite hard for me (and my husband too) to sleep alone or to be apart with each other
