We have finally replaced our fifteen year old mattress. It has been with Adam longer than I have. We haven’t completely abandoned our old friend; it is now in the guest room. I am guessing that nobody will mourn the passing of either the air mattress or the twin bed that used to occupy that space. Our new mattress is, in a word, awesome. We got a Serta Perfect Day and so far it has been living up to its ad-copy. I feel a bit like Goldilocks (minus the B&E and bear threat). This bed is definitely “just right.” I can only hope that it lasts. I have been sleeping much better and it is so comfortable that I regret leaving it in the morning.
As tough as it is to make myself get out of bed, it is getting in it that is the actual challenge. As Adam put it–we finally know the meaning of the phrase “I am going to climb into bed.” This bed is so tall that I almost need a stepstool. Adam can sort of just sit into it, but I actually have to get a leg up and crawl into it. I have to reach down to my nightable and can turn off the light by reaching directly across instead of up. It gives me a whole new perspective and I’m loving it. No buyer’s remorse here.
It is with no regret that I say that it is after 11 pm right now….which means bedtime!
