Do you know what eight nights away taught me? My bed..it sucks. Ohh I know ugly word, but it’s the ugly truth!
We just returned from more then a week away at the in-laws cottage and while we were there I was like a little bouncing Goldilocks. (and not in the pretty dancing around the house looking all pretty being all delicate and finally meeting my perfect mattress match way. More in the stomping grumbling complaining crying I can’t sleep until I found a comfy spot kind of way!!)
This makes a Mama tired, and everyone knows, a tired Mama is a mean Mama.
I tried out every bed in the darn place. The first mattress was too hard. The second mattress was too soft. The third you guessed it, she was just right.
When we got home I realized something. Our mattress is not just right! Hubby and I discussed buying a new one. A big investment, but we realized something. We really don’t know where to start. This lead me to Mattress Find. Here I could compare Memory Foam to an innerspring mattress. Find out exactly what the heck a Sleep Number Bed is, shop by leading brands, and even find out how long my next bed should last me!
So with just a little bit of internet shopping, Goldilocks might just get a good night sleep after all.
….and they lived happily ever after.

A good night sleep is necessary or life is hell for me

Sara @ Domestically Challenged says

That is the hardest thing about vacations. It’s so hard for me to sleep if the bed isn’t right. Our bed at home is perfect. We have a mattress with water tubes inside. Technically it’s a water bed and very comfortable. Hope you find the perfect mattress.

We SOOOOOOOOOOOO need a new mattress. Ours is about as old as our son (almost 17 years old)! But at this particular point in time we either have to just live with it or sleep on the couch.
I hope you find the PERFECT bed for you!

I’ve been shopping for a mattress since about April. I just can’t make the commitment. 🙁
I was completely ready to buy a Sleep Number, then my brother told me he had one in a hotel suite he stayed in and HATED it. Now, I’m leaning toward a Tempurepedic. (sp?) I’m so confused. It’s a huge investment, so I don’t want to mess this up.

it’s a hard thing to shop for no doubt… what if after a couple of nights it changes?? and don’t forget the pillows… HUGE factor in the comfort of a good night’s sleep!!!
HUGE I tell ya.
Good luck!

There is nothing like a good night’s sleep!!.
Kristina P. says
I would kill for a new bed right now!
Cool Gal says
Us, too.
We are looking into Tempurpedic (We never get a lick of solid sleep in our current bed.). As much as I don’t want to spend the money, I know it will be a wise investment. Just don’t want to make another mistake!
Happy bed shopping!

That is why as much as I love to take trips I love coming home even more – there aren’t too many beds out there as comfy as mine!! 🙂
