With Labor Day weekend comes last minute end of summer trips. We made a weekend trip to the beach. It has been great. A day of surf, sand, and sun. The best part...not getting sun burnt. It helps that we are still tanned from a week at the beach less than a month ago.
However with being on a mini vacation comes sleeping away from home. I have never been one to notice the difference in sleeping in my bed, and in a different bed. Until I hit 30. Now, if I am sleeping away from home, I can feel it. Almost the minute I lay down. Hubs and I both prefer an ice cold room. What's the point in having nice thick bed covers if it is too hot to use them? Also our mattress is, well molded to us I suppose. It is firm without being hard, but still somewhat soft without being lumpy. Overall it is just a comfy place to snuggle into and relax. I don't usually wake up stiff and sore from it.
I remember when I was a kid my parents had a bed in the spare bedroom, this particular bed is still talked about even though Mom doesn't have it anymore. This really and truly was the best sleeping bed in the world. Whenever my siblings would come to visit after growing up and moving away from home, they would try to be the first ones there to claim this bed. While this bed was nothing special it just slept great. I found myself sleeping in there a lot once I got older. There are times even now, after being in my own home for almost 9 years, I still long for a nap in that bed.
However vacation season is ending this weekend, this weekend. And we are going home today, so I can enjoy my day off tomorrow at home, doing wifely/momish things, such as laundry and cleaning. I am looking forward to it. Mostly I am looking forward to snuggling into my nice comfy bed, in my nice cold room, and sleeping in as late as I can, which translates into about 730...if I am lucky.
