a good night's unrest

I can't remember the last time I had a good night's rest. You know when you sleep and it doesn't even have to be the full eight hours, but you wake up refreshed and ready for the day. Yeah, haven't had that in months...maybe even a year now. And trust me my body is feeling it.

I wake up each morning and I am just sooo exhausted! It doesn't matter how early I go to bed the night before, in the morning I feel as though I haven't slept. I'm not taking Ambien, so I know I'm not sleepwalking during the night. I just have a difficult time getting up in the morning. I wake up just fine, my internal clock wakes me promptly at 6:00 am...even on the weekends, which sucks. But I just lay there for about an hour and a half struggling to get some rest. Aside from that, when I do finally manage to get out of bed my body just aches all over. So, I've come to the obvious conclusion...I need a new mattress set.

I have been wanting to get a new set for a while now, but just the whole thought of shopping around for the perfect mattress is discouraging. It's almost like shopping around for a car and I'm just coming off THAT high. I'd really love to get one of them Hotel mattresses you know the kind you just fall into and get lost in a deep slumber. I know I'll have to be willing to cough up some good dough for that kind of comfort, but really I guess you can't put a price on health. And this no sleep business is definitely doing a number on my health. So I guess I'll be doing some mattress shopping this weekend. Hopefully with a new mattress somes some mattress dancing...wink, wink.
