Day 14 .. it’s never as bad as you think …(sometimes)

Well, my frustration and fury at having a memory foam mattress delivered yesterday sent me into a spin as to how I was going to send it back as it was so uncomfortable. I even thought of getting wine ( as if that would have solved the problem). I didn’t, I hasten to add ! Turns out memory foam takes some time to expand and last night I had THE BEST SLEEP EVER and woke up thinking ‘is it even legal for a bed to be this comfortable ?’ : -) :-) I never ever have deep sleep according to my fitness watch and a lot of times IN MY SLEEP it notes I am ‘stressed’. Last night I slept for about 8 hours and a whole 18 minutes was deep sleep !! Amazing ! So sometimes things aren’t as bad as you think they are going to be and jumping to conclusions and catastrophising after first impressions makes no sense at all. I know this is an example from a silly mattress, but I’m sure there’s a lesson for life in there somewhere ! :-)

I love my memory foam mattress and it's lasted so much better than a regular mattress. I'm glad that you're happy with it now.

Fight or flight response is the norm for me, I have to get past that initial reaction to most things, then I start to actually calm down and work it out! I am glad you like your mattress after giving it a chance.

My friend had bought a bed that was extremely uncomfortable. She made the decision to jump up and down on the bed to make it more comfortable. I thought this decision was questionable but decided to keep my thoughts to myself. I mean, its her money and she can destroy it in whatever way she wanted.

So, I am so happy to hear your bed is now the best bed ever. Wonderful. There is nothing like a good nights sleep. It helps to make the world spin in a more peaceful way.

Congrats on TWO weeks. That is AMAZING!

Memory foam too soft for me. Also too hot to sleep on. Glad you find it comfy enough for you Ican.

We need a new mattress and are thinking memory foam. I love softer mattresses, but the memory foam all say firm. I bought my son one on sale at Big Lots, and it’s actually pretty comfy. I need one for our room soon!
