Wow, the speaks to me. I didn’t know it was a thing widely. But yeah, I do this pretty much every night. My kids go down around 9pm, wife around 11. I get 2 - 3 hours of down time from life to focus on me. I’ve done it for as long as I can remember and it’s certainly one of my favorite parts of my day.
Revenge bedtime procrastination
I generally try not to go past 2am because I have to be up around 6am for kids and school and all that. It’s sacrificial, for sure. I grew up in a large family and down time was only had when everyone went to bed. Having my own little family, the torch is carried on for sure.
