We have a new rule here: no computers on after 8 pm. This is mainly for the kids, who stay up too late, especially the older one, but it applies to everyone, even me. Even Master has been turning his off to set a good example for the kids. (parenting is hard!) Some of the nights we played card games together. I kicked butt in Apples to Apples.
It has been less than a week and we were wondering how it would go, but so far everyone has been getting more sleep, and there was very little complaining from the small peanut gallery. Because it is a weekend we got until 8:30 last night, but I was just lying under a blanket in a chair listening to music anyway.
We were in bed at just past 9:00 last night, read our books for a while snuggling, then had a quick fuck and went to sleep.
And the other one, which is more of a command than rule: use up the meat from the downstairs freezer a couple meals every week until it is gone. When we went to check the downstairs freezer Master was pleasantly surprised that I'd already used up most of the meat there. There is a little bit of lamb and a big bag of chicken.

Sounds like a good rule to have! I have a 10:30 pm bedtime rule here. Electronics off by 10:15 pm. I can read until 10:30, and then it's lights out!
