10 days of thanksgiving countdown - day 9

every morning, i wake up and have a fight with my alarm. it usually goes something like this: "beep beep beep". snooze. snuggle up tighter under my covers. 10 minutes later. "beep beep beep". snooze. turn over and snuggle more. 10 minutes later. "beep beep beep". FINE!! i LOVE my bed. i spent an entire summer in beds that weren't mine (my in-laws, a handful of different beds in europe, my bro & sis in-laws, our place in dc, etc etc etc) and when the time came to sleep in my own bed again... HEAVEN! let me explain what heaven looks like: it looks like a pillow top bed, with a feather bed on top, and a bed cover on top of that, covered in soft sheets and a big fluffy duvet... with a down pillow on the side.

so, anyway... i am grateful for a comfy bed, for a comfy couch (see above), for comfy throw pillows, and a comfy blanket... i am grateful for sleep. i love sleep. if i had a top ten list of favorite things in this world, at least one of them would be sleep. and another one might be naps. and another one might be sleeping-in. and another one would be hagen daz chocolate covered ice cream bars with almonds.
