Mountains of Pillows A bag of popcorn in my bed, A mountain of pillows at my head, A slab of pizza on my right, What more could a girl want for at night? Streaming a movie from Amazon, Long silk nightie and curlers on, A mountain of pillows to my right, Makes a girl seem less alone at night. Rain outside is coming down. A comforting, soothing sound, Soon I’ll sleep and take my rest, With mountains of pillows to caress. 7/14/16

Had to stop eating the popcorn for weight reduction and the pizza so things are a little less fun. Glad you could relate. Thanks and blessings. Janis

Thanks, Sandra. I'll say the same thing to you I said to luloo, some of us sleep with pillows at night. Only pillows. Be thankful.
