An investment in sleep

It is amazing what good sleep can do for you. My wife and I have had a bed for almost 8 years and it was definitely long past its time to be thrown out. It wasn’t a good quality bed to begin with and was just plain falling apart. The foam was almost gone, we tossed and turned all night, no support and on and on.

A couple years ago we went to a mattress store and I laid down on a Tempur-pedic bed and I loved it! I tried a couple others but I just really liked the way you kind of molded into the bed. At the time we couldn’t really afford a new bed, so we did without for quite a while, until a week ago.

It just so happened that I played in a poker tournament and ended up splitting the money of the top three finishes. The next day we were out looking at dishwashers (we need on of those too), and were going from Lowes to Home Depot when my wife said that we really needed a bed more than a new dishwasher. Turns out there is a mattress store in the same shopping area as HD, so in we went.

Of course they had the bed we were looking for, and we ended up buying one right then for delivery the day. We had much anticipation for our first night on the new bed and we even decided to make a really nice experience by buying new linens and such. The first night was wonderful. The next day was better. A week later and I’m completely sold. I fall asleep much, much quicker and this weekend when I slept in a little late I wasn’t sore and miserable. What a difference!

Just about any bed would have been an improvement, but I’m glad we went ahead and got a really nice bed. The difference is tremendous.
