As I was struggling to get out of bed the other morning I thought to myself why is this so hard? Here is the conclusion I have come up with.
MISTAKE 1: Shortly after Erin was born James and I decided it was time to upgrade our mattress from the handy-me down full I had in high school to a comfy queen. We decided it would be worth it to spend a bit more and get a nice mattress.
MISTAKE 2: Getting a new mattress meant getting a new bedspread, right? Well I fell in love with a duvet cover which meant getting a down comforter as well. Sleeping with a down comforter means sleeping within a cloud (if a cloud actually had enough mass to hold you that is.)
MISTAKE 3: When we moved into our home all the windows had those shade you pull down over the windows to make it nice and dark. I have removed them from all the windows but our bedroom window which means there is no mister sunshine to greet me in the morning.
MISTAKE 4: James and I stayed at a nice hotel one night about a year ago and their pillows were so fabulous I had to look at the tag. For our anniversary a few months later we decided to buy these pillows as our present to each other. These pillows are heaven and are not recommended by me because you will never want to leave its side.
Conclusion: If you like sleep, if your body is achy due to pregnancy and you have a hard time getting out of bed as it is, DO NOT make your bed that comfy. Now if you will excuse me I think I am going to take a nap.

K! HELP ME! We have had 4 mattresses since we have been married. We have had huge body impressions in each one and we are back to that point! We hate our bed. What kind of bed do you have... my mom is in the same boat! HELP, I want to sleep!
Be thankful you have such a great mattress! I toss and turn all night long due to numb hips. I even have one of those memory foam mattress toppers and it doesn't help much. This time, I'd be thankful for your mistake. :)
Next time I wash sheets I will look, I don't remember.
So what does it mean if I have a horrible mattress and even worse pillows and I still don't want to get out of bed?
Andrea it means you are pregnant.

I love this post Liz. Sounds like some super great mistakes. I too wish my bed was even more comfy. Great writing!
