I have slept in the recliner Friday night and last night because that is how tired I was both nights but I can not do it often. It is very different type of sleeping for me - that's for sure - but doable if need be I guess. i prefer my bed in my bedroom, though. I do not find myself sleeping sitting up after reclining in the morning when sleeping in a bed, lol. That is what happened both mornings when I woke up to get going for my day. Also, sleeping in the living room with the TV going all night long is not good idea either. The temptation is there to watch TV all night long and I have no time in the day to be tired because I am studying on a daily basis for my Masters degree in accounting online at a credited college.
