The Cool House: Unexpected Benefits

Unexpected Benefits


Since moving the bed into the spare room last Sunday we have slept better than we have in years. Five years to be precise. Turns out we had not installed the spacers correctly when the movers brought it into the house. Even though we have changed the room round four times since we moved in and flipped the mattress at least 10 times it never occurred to us to check we had those things in the right position. Roughly 1800 nights spent tossing and turning to get comfortable, complaining about the ridge in the latex mattress, blaming old age and wear and tear on the joints and it turns out we could have solved all our problems in, oh, TWENTY SECONDS FLAT! At least we can guarantee future Cool House guests that we have a very comfortable bed for them to crash on...

I hope, in five years, to discover my oven really does work and that I'd just had the racks in a position such that they interfered with the electrical panel.

Seriously, that's great news about your bed.

Oh MY...that totally sounds like something I would do. And most likely have. May you have a comfortable night's sleep...
