Unlike any other


After a life time of accepting what was provided for me I have finally taken the plunge and purchased the nicest bed I could ever hope to sleep on. I purchased a king size Bragada bed off of the internet. The Bragada web-site claims to have been in business longer and has the same memory foam as Tempurpedic, but happens to cost less.This bed is as wide as it is long. I still have yet to purchase a set of king size sheets due to a healthy dose of lazy. So for the time being I've placed a flat sheet down over the left portion of the bed and then use another flat bed sheet between myself and the blanket. I have been to the store a couple of times with the mission of getting some sheets. To this point I have been very disappointed with the local Wal-Mart.

I also became keenly aware that any blanket I possessed would be less than adequate to accompany my lavish king size commodity. Since it has been such a long time since I have bought a new blanket I decided to try and make the decision easier until and I asked my mom if she would make me a blanket for my bed. Little did I know that she would make me go to a fabric store and select fabric for said blanket. Did you know that roughly 80%-90% of fabrics in a fabric store have flowers on them? Who knew? After several minutes of aimlessly wandering through the isles and sifting through a myriad of flower patters I was able to find something that didn't have flowers and wasn't boring as my mother deemed most un-flower patterns. My wonderful mother has not yet finished this king size quilt yet, but it should be pretty sweet.

With this bed I sleep better at night in comfort like I have never thought possible. Memory foam took me a couple of days to get used to, but now I wonder how I ever lived without it.

So are you going to help mom with this gargantuous quilt?

It's also awesome to tell people that you sleep on the bed "designed by NASA!"

I would love to help mom with this quilt, but I don't know when she is going to start. Not to mention I want it to look nice and I'm afraid my my domestic skills may not be up to par.

Whoa now that is cool!! For the first 23.5 years of my life I owned and slept on nothing bigger than a twin except for in a hotel, so I thought that the queem pillow top one we got for our wedding was a big step nut your new bed makes it look like nothing!!!
P.S. Thanks for coming to our reception and good luck with your new job and everything!!!
