I love it when you discover solutions by happy accident! I have been suffering since coming to Grenada with poor sleep habits. Mainly, my hubby studies late into the night and can sleep through the light of a 5:45 a.m. dawn. I stay up with him, but then the light coming through the curtains wakes me up with the sun. I also couldnt do naps successfully because our room didnt get very dark. And, I hate anything on my face, so sleep masks were out of the question. For most of this year, I was living in a constant state of sleep deprivation. However, our AC in our master bedroom died, so we moved all of our bedding to the tiny guest room with a wall AC unit. It has no windows. It is a cave. But, it is so small, I didnt think the added darkness was worth the tiny sleeping quarters. Plus, we stored the dog food in there and it smelled like kibble. The AC was fixed last week. We still havent moved. I will take the kibble smell and cramped quarters ANY day! Its so nice to be able to sleep anytime you want in total darkness. I had no idea light affected me so much. I thought I was just doomed to be a bad sleeper. If any of you struggle with sleep issues, make sure your room is completely dark. It really made a huge difference for me!
