I've stopped sleeping in bed

I set my BB xlc up in a spare bedroom. And I love it so much I've just been sleeping in it the past 5 days! Does anyone else just sleep in their hammock? I think I'm gonna make a spot for it in the backyard

I am a bedroom hammock sleeper as well. I love it.

I've been sleeping in a hammock every night since 2004. I have forgotten how to sleep in a bed.
I tell people that I sleep as well backpacking as I do at home.

I would try this, but I enjoy sleeping with my wife too much.

And yes, I do mean sleeping.

Depending on where she deployed, she might be jealous.

I found HF last spring and within 2 months I had 4 hammocks and was sleeping outside in my HH pretty much full time lol. My wife wasn't too happy about it so I used the hang calculator and set up eye bolts in the master bedroom so I could hang inside when it was too humid and to make the boss happier. And we all know happy wife = happy life lol. That was over a year ago now, and I've since traded the HH for a BBXLC, which I use pretty much exclusively outside, and an 11' argon that I diy'd and use inside. My wife is happy bc she gets more room in the bed + me inside more, and I'm happy because I can actually sleep all night now without feeling like I got hit by a train every morning when I wake up from so many old sports related injuries. I'm now thinking of trying out a super large Myan hammock for indoor hanging to not wear out my Argon 1.6 so quickly.

I found a decent hammock stand on sale a couple months ago, and have been sleeping at least 6 days a week in it. The sag isn't perfect as the two arms sort of bow in a little when I sit down, but it works well enough. I just have to deal with a limp ridgeline depending how I lay. No more back pain when I wake up! Only problem is I don't want to get out of it in the morning

Could you slide some thick pipe in the arms, or even a wooden dowel, to reinforce it?

I sleep one night a week in one of mine inside the master bedroom. Wife thinks its silly but marriage is give/take so I don't argue about it. Ill take my one night a week. Usually its Friday night and Saturday morning my three year old daughter will come into our room and climb into it with me and fall back asleep.
