Default Interesting..Snore Rooms for new 55+ houses

Here is an interesting article from todays MSNBC.....talks about how some 55+ communities are building "Snore rooms" in their new home plans for folks who keep getting wakened by a "Snoring spouse".....

Thought it might get some reaction....

Frank, a great idea. Maybe to save cost builders could combine the snore room with a safe room.

What a great idea! It would be nice to have a comfortable place to shuffle off to during the night when one's partner is sawing logs. Sometimes I'm that partner, other times it's hubby.

People should be tested and treated for sleep apnea instead of trying to ignore the problem that exists.

Default Snore Rooms are great...

...we have one in our house already! It's called the living room...and she sleeps on the "snore bed"...called the COUCH!

She's says I snore but...I've never heard me so I dont know what she's hearing.

We bought a bed (actually 2 twin extra long beds to make a king) in Sumter Landing. (Relax in Comfort is the name of the store.). Our beds are adjustable which means we don't sleep flat any more. Makes a world of difference. Doesn't cure snoring completely, but sure does help. We've never slept so well.

Default Smart move Avista...

That sure beats a 25,000 dollar addition of a "Snore Room" onto the house!
