    We get up at 4am every day. We're in bed by 9pm, and even that's starting to be a little late.

    That is still inconceivable to me. I've been having to to hit the hay at 8-9 just to get up around 5.

      Do you understand how marriage works? Anyway, she's the one getting up at 4:30. :doh:

        I guess I don't then. My wife manages to struggle out of bed herself without my aid... ;P

            My bedtime goal is 9 PM. I have to be up at 5 AM. My wife doesn't have to be up until 7 - 7:30 yet she comes to bed with me. So who is getting all the sleep? All our children are teens and live with our ex's. So we don't have to worry about them during the week...

            If you know what I mean...and I think you do...

                They sure do (the youngest one does at least she's just turned 4). We have to lock her bedroom so we hear her banging on the door to get out, otherwise she creeps downstairs and demolishes all the food in the kitchen, and generally wrecks the house! If she finds packets of food she can't open she attacks them with scissors until she get the packets open. She helps herself to the contents of the fridge and particularly enjoys attacking the yoghurt. 4-6 at a time, each with its own clean spoon! She has even been known to go into the freezer and sit and eat ice-cream and once had enough just leaves the carton on the kitchen floor melting away. Once she's completed the devastation she heads back upstairs, creeps past our bedroom and heads up the next flight of stairs to where her sister is and wakes her up. The joys of parenting! (see why i enjoy coming offshore for a rest!)

                    A good husband would be up at 4, making coffee and cooking her breakfast. ;P
