Not the chocolates, obv.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We have a new bed. Have I mentioned that we have a new bed?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well we do. It’s a bed. And it’s new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What started out as a conversation (and indeed a decision) to replace the mattress very quickly turned into a ‘throw the bed away and get a new one’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And then the conversation rapidly became ‘what size shall we go for?’<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And then fond memories of the beds we have slept in, in several hotels, played with our heartstrings and suddenly we found that we had bought a Superking-sized bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Which, from a standard double, is a heck of a jump.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Actually it’s a heck of a jump up into the new bed, frankly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We went for a firm mattress with a topper (not a hat) and as a direct result of new bed, new mattress, new topper, new bed-linen, new pillows (yes, we went all the way), but as a direct result of all these things, the quality of my sleep has dramatically improved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Seven hours a night is common, where once three or four hours was the norm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Eight hours is regularly achieved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And this weekend I noticed up my first nine hour doze. If a doze can actually be nine hours of Zzzzzzzzzzzz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Which I think it can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
BTW, did I mention that we’ve got a new bed?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
