Life on Florida’s West Coast

Not Just Any Mattress Will Do

I don’t usually complain about the way I feel. I don’t. I’m not one of those people with an aching back and sore feet. Why? I sleep on a good mattress, exercise, and wear Birkenstock shoes to work. And before you chime in with a comment about how unattractive Birks are, just remember that I work at a high school and there is not a soul there I need to look pretty for ? That would be gross. Plus, my shoes mean I can walk and walk and walk and walk, and my legs and feet NEVER hurt. Never.

Anyway, I think my bed is about to the point where it needs replaced. It is a super mattress, but it’s a twin and was always meant to be used for the time being,. My amazing mattress is a King and it is in my storage unit. I dream about that bed. It is a Springair and it rocks, absolutely rocks.

My sister has a sleep number bed, though, and is always singing its praises. She has me curious. I can admit that. My super-bed, the one in storage, might be amazing but it is still the bed I shared with my ex husband so although it is comfortable – it is saturated with bad memories. I can see the justification of the consideration for a brand new bed when I move the next time.

I want to continue to be the person who gets a great night’s sleep. So, you can bet I will spend what I need to spend to replace my mattress with the best possible bed on the market. I owe it to myself to at least consider a sleep number. Hmm, maybe y brother-in-law would give up his spot for a few nights and let me test theirs. :)
