LOOKING FOR THE P.P.


So, I gave it a try once again. It's just not getting any better. It has to be the right one or I will not be satisfied. No, I will not settle, not anymore. You just cannot trust their looks. It may look like it might just be the one, but of course, it's not. So many disappointments, so many "Maybe this time..." After every time I always say "Never again", but somehow the possibility of finding THE ONE makes me excited. OK, so that's not what I was looking for, but it was so close to the restaurant..., and we had 15 minutes to kill... "Honey, would it be ok if we walk to ...?" "Sure, I guess". "I am just going to walk around, just looking". And then, I was right there. Where to start? So many choices! Oh my, today it might just be the day! "I'm just looking anyway. "Everyday savings" No, I can get that one anytime. And more Everyday Savings. But then, right there in front of me "Special Price" "Half Off" King size (Yes, that's my size). Ok, but I need to feel it. You don't just get it hoping it will be THE ONE you have to at least believe it could be the one. So I put it close to my face and I thought to my self "I think I found it, THE ONE..." "I am getting this one , Hun." Bring it home, out of the bag and into the p. case. Go to bed and "OH, no, my neck is killing me"! I don't think I'll be able to walk straight in the morning. Maybe if I wait for a few minutes... No way. Off to the floor. Back to the old one. Ok, so it was not THE ONE, and the old one is not THE ONE, either, but it will have to do until I find the PERFECT PILLOW. I am not giving up. That's why I need your help. No reward, just the satisfaction of helping meeeee!

Begonia, you crack me up. I love it! I know how hard it is to find the perfect pillow, it makes or breaks your rest. I hope you find the perfect one soon...for your neck's sake!

I too am almost to the point you are, Begona. I have been sleeping with the same pillow for about 16 years. It was the P.P. 16 years ago, but it has served it's purpose. My search is just beginning...In the famous words of Mr. Bill, "Oh noooooooooooo...)

Begona, I think this is something that everyone can relate too. We've all been there but I have found the perfect pillow (for me anyway). Try the Select Comfort Store in the mall. They have so many different types of pillows and you can even lay on a bed a try it out. They are a little pricey but worth the great nights sleep.

You may not have found the PP yet (that cracks me up!), but think of how much fun we have looking for it. Oh...wait...did I say that out loud? It's fun?

Yeah, I guess it is. Even with the sour look on my face as we go to another P store, I still wouldn't trade it for anything. I mean...I would trade it for you actually finding the PP. It's the time I wouldn't trade.

I love you more than life.
