Something Is Making My Partner Exhausted
He’s been asleep all day and I’m worried especially because of our deadline
We went to bed at 4:30 am this morning. It’s 10 pm now. He’s moving but he’s been sleeping constantly since we went to sleep. He’s seemed like he’s going to wake up a few times. But, no, nothing.
The first time I woke up was around 10:30 am. I checked my phone because I had a story that I had submitted before bed to see if it was published. My daily writing prompt story was still unpublished.
There was a note with a suggestion that I liked and said that I’d like to do and run with. 17 hours later and a couple of responses in the private notes later and still not published with kind of a time limit on it but I digress. I’m not going to try and force the issue.
I’m just mainly worried about my partner at this point. I woke up a few more times in between to check on him but figured I’d just go back to sleep intermittently while he rested. 1 pm, 4 pm, 7 pm, and now 10 pm.
I finally decided that I needed to get on here and send out proof of life or something to that effect. We’re supposed to have already started completing the checklist for us to leave to start traveling. Even though the travel center hasn’t asked us to leave until the weekend, our own personal plan was to leave Wednesday or Thursday night.
It is now Thursday night and I sit here anxiously as my partner has been asleep now for almost 18 hours. I hope that he’ll be okay. I have no idea how to do or what we need to do for anything.
I would’ve been on it hours ago if I did. Then I could’ve surprised him with it being done when he woke up but now our success in the plan we needed to get out of here hinges on when he wakes up.
It won’t be immediate either. He needs at least an hour or two to get himself going for the day. That means that when he wakes up, he won’t be able to start doing anything or moving until after midnight if my writing wakes him up.
Believe me when I say that I’m trying not to be worried but since I took the time to write how I’m feeling right now, you know exactly how I’m feeling right now. I’m deeply worried.
Massively and primarily on my partner, but then also secondarily on the travel center and my daily writing prompt response. With all of the stress lately, I don’t need more than one thing to worry about at the moment.
I’m going to try to stay calm over here but I’m low-key about to have a panic attack if things don’t go well tonight. Stay tuned.
