Wordfuse (shut-eye edition)

 (noun): slept + skeptic = those who doubt they'll sleep through the entire night, or whose history has shown proper uninterrupted shut-eye to be elusive aka more four winks than forty winks. Sigh.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Codex:
It's a good word to describe mind over mattress. Me: Ready for sleep.
Mind: Really? I'd like to chat.
Me: Not now.
Mind: Blah.Blah.Blah.
Me: Not this again.
It's my favorite game.

I am very sleptic, but I did get 7 hours last night. That is a huge win for me.

I haven't had an uninterrupted full night's sleep since menopause nearly 20 years ago.

At around 4:00am, get up, visit the loo, look out of the window and check on the neighbourhood, if all is well, then go back to bed. Yes I'm sleptic.

I have been sleeping quite well lately.
I've always been pretty good at sleeping. I don't usually sleep very long -- 6 hrs is a good night's sleep, 4.5 is manageable.

Aah, that is what I have. I am with Codex above - sadly.
