Tammi's World

I'm Taking Reservations

The irony has never been lost on me, or those that know me well, that I sell mattresses and train people on the importance of good sleep but have problems sleeping myself. I actually USE that in my classes by telling folks that I am the perfect example of what happens due to bad sleep habits.

I do that because I can't hide the truth. Plus, it usually gets a decent laugh and relaxes things a bit. And trust me, that goes a long way in gaining their confidence.

But I do KNOW what it takes. Some of the issues behind insomnia are harder to control. My big problem is the whole turning off of the brain part. Once I get past that I'm usually pretty good. But it's getting to that point that I struggle with.

When you're looking at trying to help yourself get better sleep, to be straight with you, it's all about the bed. Seriously. It really is. And I've finally gotten my guest bed pulled together perfectly.

Kind of funny actually. I've always made the joke that you don't want TOO nice of a guest bed. If it's uber comfy your guests will never leave. And when I lived in Florida, that line always garnered a good laugh.

But here in Paradise? Ohhh....my guests are gonna LOVE comin' to visit. The mattress is incredible. THE most comfortable thing I've ever slept on. Ever. Now, it's Tammi size. If you're on the short side you might need a step to get in and out, but it's MORE than worth the effort.

And the sheets? Like butta! Honestly. Good sheets make all the difference.

A wonderful cozy blanket and VOILA! A piece of heaven.

The last couple of nights temps have dropped into the low 30's and I've had the window cracked at the head of the bed. Cool, crisp atmosphere and that soft, warm cozy bed?

Ahhhh. It just don't get any better than that. Seriously.

I'm tellin' you folks....putting a bit of effort into the ATMOSPHERE in your bedroom makes all the difference in the world. It won't CURE your insomnia, but it sure won't make it worse. That's for damned sure.

And I'm proud to say, I've got the best guest room around! Now, I just gotta line up some visitors.........
