I found lovely dark chocolate flannel sheets last week on an amazing sale. Combined with coupons, we ended up with one heck of a deal and not a moment too soon. I have been freezing every night and I think the shock of the cold sheets were *this* close to shocking my heart, never to recover! Ok, maybe not, but I was darn cold.
I washed them and we finally remembered to put them on the bed last night. It was HEAVEN. Warm and comfy and the perfect vehicle to dream of Chuck (This one, definitely not this one, in case you were wondering...); which is where I found myself this morning: in our cave like bedroom, snuggled into the warm chocolate flannel sheets, dreaming of Chuck professing his undying love to me when I hear Isaac say, "TAWNYA!" and start shaking my shoulder.
There is NEVER shoulder shaking happening in this house. Never. Sammy wakes us up and we play chicken until Isaac inevitably gets up with him and I wish I could sleep for just a few more minutes and then we all start our day. So, of course, I wonder who has died to cause the shoulder shaking and set up with a start. It was just after 7, which means we ALL slept in, but, weirdly, I COULD NOT remember the day to save my life. Even after Isaac told me it was Tuesday, I still had this completely blank mind and absolutely no reference for the day. It was the strangest feeling and took me a full few minutes to realize that my 7 am grocery shopping appointment was going to have to be quick this morning, since I was late getting up. I jumped up, headed to the bathroom, checked Sammy's room and realized he isn't in bed. I frantically ran back to our room and asked where Sammy was. He'd curled up into Isaac's side, blissful as well.
Those, my friend, are powerful sheets...
Music for a time warp-y Tuesday:
(duffy, mercy)
where did you end up getting the sheets? I need some for all of my kids...
ReplyDeleteKohl's. Twins are SO MUCH easier to find than king.
ReplyDeleteWould a game or sheets be better for Christmas ?
ReplyDeleteFor all of us? Probably a game. But you know you don't NEED to give us anything...
ReplyDeleteLack of sleep affects my brain too.
ReplyDeleteLove this song.
Mmmm! I love brown sheets. I have two sets but no flannel. They are however, high count Egyptian cotton. They feel so soft.
ReplyDeleteSweet dreams.
This song is so cool. Now it always reminds me of the door routine with Twitch and that one I can never remember...Katie??
ReplyDeleteI can't sleep in flannel sheets. They make me sweat. I do not like to sweat in my sleep. Or ever.
That was such a good routine...
ReplyDeleteSweating here in the winter isn't really an option, I've found. I am usually the one to sweat, but in the winter? Just keep piling the blankets on, baby!
