Bed

B ecame uncomfortable when the sleep number slumbered, E nding the comfortable cushion under my neck, back and tush. D ecidedly, my pillow is also dead to me, with all its tossing and turning. 8/27/2019

- When you try to sleep but can't get it ... can't lie still ... "tossing and turning" ... looks at the clock and thinks about tomorrow ... the pillow is dead and the carpet too hot ... a loooong night ... a very familiar feeling, Kim :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)

funny how a bed or pillow can totally make or break a good night's sleep...never had a sleep number bed for fear it would fizzle out like an air mattress on a camping trip...good write :) hugs
