Is Sleep the New Sex?
I do still love sex.
Even after almost twelve years with my husband it is great. But I have to admit that while we used to rush to be together when the kids were not around, now I would prefer a nap.
When they were babies I tried the "sleep when they sleep" idea but was always too busy doing other things and napped when they were being taken care of by someone else.
But now when I have the choice of sex or sleep guess what wins? Last week my husband and I managed several interludes without the kids around but what stands out in my mind as the most satisfying was the nap I managed to take Thursday afternoon.
Now that naps are rare I find them better than the best sex ever. And that includes the wild times I had before I got married and the imaginary sex I have with George Clooney and Brad Pitt.
