recommendations are good

a lady recommended that I keep a flashlight near my bed for two reasons:
to see my way in the dark
to write something down without turning on a bright light.

why would you need to write something down in the dark? lol But I can for sure understand you needing it for going to the rest room.

Don't need a separate flashlight. I just use my phone most of the time or write down the notes in my phone.

I understand what you mean by writing something down.  You could get a good idea during the night!  Something you need to do or remember.  A little note will be a reminder!
