I TOLD YOU SO!!! *lol*

Merging two lives is never an easy thing to accomplish. There are hiccups, arguments, annoyances, and personal living habits that all need to be worked through and (eventually) compromised on.


When Lance and I moved in together in August 2005 we each had a complete house full of things. The “battles” began as to what would stay, what would go, what would get stored, and what was just viewed as junk. For the most part merging homes with Lance was seamless. We kept who ever had the better stuff, until of course we got to our beds.


The battle really heated up when picking whose bedroom furniture we would use in the master bedroom and whose bed we would use. In the beginning Lance had a king size bed, while it was huge, I didn’t find it all that comfortable. Lance hated my double bed so that got bumped to the guest bedroom and we ended up giving his King Size bed to his nephew and buying a brand new top of the line Queen sized pillow top mattress set for the master bedroom…we were both happy with our new bed BUT we encountered a problem because neither of us had queen sized sheets.


Now, lemme tell you about sheets. The higher the thread count, the better. I don’t care what they cost. If they aren’t Egyptian cotton I am really not happy with them. Sheets are one of my truly extravagant things. Lance didn’t feel that way about them. He didn’t care as long as he had something covering the mattress.


We went shopping for sheets when we bought the new queen size bed and he almost had a coronary when he saw how much the GOOD sheets cost so we ended up with 220 daisy maid Wal-Mart brand sheets. They weren’t horrible…but they were so stiff, they didn’t really fit on the mattress because of the deep pillow top, and they pilled to hell after being washed less than 5 times. Nothing annoys me more than sheets that end up short and then having to sleep on little pilled bumps of fabric…ugh…yea, I know, I’m picky…but hey! It’s SLEEP we’re talking about here!! Its supposed to be fantastic!! *lol*


Today, my friends, was a glorious day. It took me a year and a half BUT I FINALLY convinced him that 600 thread count Egyptian cotton sheet sets on a “buy one get one half price” sale offer was just too damn good to pass up. We ended up with FOUR complete 600 thread count Egyptian cotton sheet sets for ONLY $190!!!!!!!! HOLY BIBLE!!!!!!!!!! *lol* (that just never gets old *lmao*)


We came home from errands and popped the sheet sets in the wash. I just put a set on the bed…well…I am happy to say that Lance finally gets it. He climbed into the bed…looked at me, snuggled deeper into the sheets and said “holy shit…these sheets are amazing!!!” *rotfl* You should've seen the look on his face. It was priceless.


If he woulda listened to me a year and a half ago his sexy bum would’ve been much happier so much earlier *lolol* but hey…I can be a bigger person…I didn’t say “I TOLD YOU SO” to his face…I decided to come here and do it instead *lmao*


I so cannot wait to sleep!!
