Relaxing in snow

I slept like a log....................why the hell do we say that? I'll do some research in a minute. As it was  still snowing outside I opted for a warm lie-in and a Weetabix in bed (loosely speaking) eventually getting dressed for lunch. It's a tough life this retirement lark.

As expected, there is no definitive answer although the phrase first appeared in the early 1600's, along with "sleeping like a dog."     Both refer to a particularly deep, uninterrupted sleep, but I have yet to acknowledge witnessing a sleeping log.
