This morning when Jim got up he wanted to know why I was sleeping in the recliner. I had moved there during the wee hours of the morning because it was hurting to much on our mattress that I couldn't sleep.
He said "That's it! We're going mattress shopping!". I reminded him we couldn't afford one, but he said we couldn't afford not to since I rarely sleep in bed anymore!
Of course I then protested that I needed to clean the house, but he said to let it go. If you knew my husband, he is a stickler for a clean house. Sometimes when I'm extra tired from low lung function, etc. I want to use the dry mop on the floor, but that is NOT good enough - it HAS to be vacuumed with our Rainbow.
So my house is dirty.
And we put an order in for a new mattress.
And we have another monthly payment to make, but it's interest free at least.
What kind of mattress did we decide on? Well, we checked several out but decided on the Sleep Number bed. (I mentioned the idea of putting a cheap air mattress on top of our present mattress, but he reminded me that every time we turn on the one we have you can hear the noise and he didn't like that.) It's our Christmas present for ourselves. He also bought me a pillow I was coveting. I read in bed all of the time and this is a special Reading Pillow that is a large square and the bottom is like a bean bag and the top is a regular pillow.
Oh, a funny story before I go. The other day I was trying to find the label on our mattress to see what kind it was and my son came in to talk. (He follows me everywhere talking, but I'm trying to be thankful that my teen talks to me!) He asked me what I was doing and I said I was trying to find the label and read it and would he help me because lifting the mattress was too heavy for me. So he said he would.
He stuck his head between the mattress and box spring and I heard "Here it is! I found it!"
Me: "What does it say?"
Ryan: "Do. not. remove. this. label..."
Me: *doubled over laughing* Ryan, not THAT label! There should be a large label stuck to the mattress that says "Sealy or Serta or something!".
Ryan: Oh. Why are you laughing?
He was absolutely serious and sincere and it was just a riot when he was reading that fine print to me!

Bahahahahhahaha! I literally laughed out loud at Ryan's reading the label. That is HILARIOUS!
ReplyDeleteGlad you got a new bed. Let me know how it works! I think I'd go nuts with my OCD trying to find the perfect number and I'd constantly be adjusting the bed to see how it feels.
I'm so glad you are getting a new mattress. We'll need a report on how you sleep! Love Ryan's label reading too!
ReplyDeleteHahahahahahahahahahaha!! Prime Kellee moment!! I was going for surgery and i hate needles so I asked M "Can they put me to sleep before they poke me for anastesia?" and he just looked at me like are you serious for a good 5 mins before he says "Thank goodness your pretty" which then ofcourse only confused me even more!! Much later he explained in order to be put to sleep I had to be poked..how else was the med gonna magically get in my veins?! =) DUH!
