Perchance to Sleep!

Good riddance, Purple! Hello, Beautyrest! In  a lot of ways, it feels like consistent, quality sleep hasn't happened since last February. Ah, the Before Times. It's been a weird, arduous struggle with internalizing a lot of extra stress, uncertainty and anxiety AND finding the right mattress. We have a 120 night trial for this one, but fingers and toes are all crossed that this one takes. 🤞🤞

Immediately after receiving the mattress today, I put on a the new protector, also a Beautyrest. It's called Sensacool Silver. It has a nice cooling sensation and feel to it that should help keep it from overheating. Always a good thing when there is some foam involved. 

However, the jury is still out on the feel of it. It initially seems like it's a bit too big for the bed, even though they're both California King sizes. It's ever so slightly crinkly upon shifton, but I think that's because it's not a tight fit and without the flat sheet. I'll test it out to see how it goes, but I think it might bunch up under the sheet as we shift and move about the bed.

With that said, I am actively seeking recommendations for your favorite mattress protectors! This is crucial especially since we're in the trial period and need to keep it pristine in case we need to initiate a return. 

I do like the cooling feature, but it's not necessary if they're all too noisy, crinkly and have a tendency to bunch. Other than that, it just needs to be something that fits well and does it's job protecting. 

Give me all your recommendations, please!

Here's to better sleep, less aches and pains and the sweetest of dreams! 😴💤
