on Saturday the bedroom got a lovely coat of very light pink paint… really, white paint with a touch of purple in it… it looks beautiful and I am very happy with it…

on Sunday my daughter and I went out and I bought a new mattress… did go over the budget which I had set for myself, but after seeing what they cost had to raise it a bit to get good quality… saved nearly half the original cost by buying on Black Friday weekend…

today the mattress arrived and my son-in-law was able to be here to accept the delivery…

the old mattress was 10 inches high… this one is 14 inches and I am getting used to reaching down to answer the phone and put things on the bedside table, lol… clearly we are going to have to make a new headboard sooner, rather than later, because there is very little of it visible, lol…

and then I had to stop on my way home to get new sheets because none of mine were going to fit…

have just climbed between the sheets and am looking forward to a good night’s sleep…
