The poem was beautiful lil, and I realize it may not be literal, but I am responding as such because in our house we are constantly facing crisis of sleep. Whether it be a 2 year old that isn't sure she likes her big-kid bed or my wife that swears I snore, sleep is a hot topic these days. My whole life my grandparents have had separate rooms they sleep in. I've always pledged that this would NEVER happen to me.

I better stop snoring.

Beautiful poem lil.

thanks tng. If I'm lucky, really lucky, I'll get a new mattress delivered on Wednesday to this not-Toronto place where I am. I'll keep you posted. In the meanwhile, bed, floor, sofa, bed, floor, sofa...

Something you realize as you get older: A good mattress is well worth the investment. We have a sleep number bed which allows two settings for either side. We love it. When away from home a good mattress can make or break the experience. It's important stuff.
