Now I Lay Myself Down To Sleep

September 1st, 2009

One of the hardest things to do if you have a chronic illness is to get a goods night sleep. I’ve spent many of nights wide awake instead of sleeping. Its either, I’m wide awake and my mind is going a mile a minute or I’m hurting too bad to get a wink of sleep. I’ve struggled for years over getting a new bed, but I’ve always found an excuse not to buy one. My bed use to be comfortable, but now it’s like sleeping on a bumpy blanket. The bed used to be comfortable, but not anymore. I’ve been checking out the antique style beds at time 4 sleep. One of my favorite beds is the Jessica Metal because of the decorative head board and foot board. The spiral swirls remind me of the lollipops from Disney world. One of my favorite time periods is Victorian, so this bed fits me just right. I like to look at the Victorian homes on TV and online. I would buy a memory foam mattress at the same time because I’ve heard such great things about memory foam mattresses. If it would help me not wake up feeling like I was hit by a truck in the morning, I’d love it. I would buy one of the leather beds if  I couldn’t buy the Jessica Metal bed.

of I couldn’t buy the Jessica Metal bed.

    I wonder if the Jessica Metal bed is available in my location. I was just amused by the spiral swirls which you said reminded you of lollipops of Disneyland…hehehe… Hope you’re enjoying your every sleeping sessions now, my friend.

    Jackie,
    So sorry to hear about your SIL lupus is something I don’t wish on anyone, but it’s what you make of it. I still struggle understanding why I have to deal with it. People who say Oh it would be nice not to work should be careful what you wish for. It might be nice for a little while, but after a while it gets old.
