> Oh yeah, mattress toppers galore. Part of my frustration is that my husband didn’t let me buy the pillow top mattress that I wanted because it cost too much… but then we ended up having to spend another $1000 on a deluxe mattress topper anyway. And I still have trouble with it! False economy and lesson learned. This time I’m picking the mattress I want!

I know the solution, a water-bed 😉

And yes, wow that’s a lot of money for a mattress topper!
