Birthday List
Aug. 25th, 2006 10:07 amIt's coming up, you know. And I need to have some answers when the parents ask "What do you want for your birthday?" In past years I've asked for money, and ended up spending it on things like groceries and gas. So I'm aiming for something different.
My bedroom is cold in the winter. I'll probably put plastic over the sliding glass door this year - didn't last year because I LOVED it too much, but it is not sealed well, and every time I hear the night noises through the closed window I think "I'm going to be cold this winter." My bed is also uncomfortable. It's too firm, and I end up sleeping on the sofa 3 nights out of 6 due to back pain. I'm thinking I need something to soften it up, one of those feather ticking thingys.* Which will mean I'll need new sheets, with deeper pockets, to fit over the ticking. So:
Ticking and cover
New sheets with deep pockets (no flannel!) - two sets
Two new blankets. One Vellux, one other - NOT cotton weave
New pillows.
Maybe even a new body pillow
That should do it. I can throw away my old Vellux, which is shedding all over the apartment like a 16 year old cat, and return Scarlett's Vellux to HER bed this winter.
*Brent has one, I think, and my back doesn't hurt as much when I sleep there. Of course I tend to sleep wrapped around him, or backed up against his back, which provides proper support, too. hmm
