I hate to break it to you, but apparently you are going to have to rotate out pillows like I do. I had to clear off a shelf in the hall closet to keep various pillows, which I bring out during the year. This has caused me to have less storage room in that closet. Plus - I don't get to see all my pillows all the time - and I like them all.
It's so frustrating.
I have a storage closet that has a mile high stack of blankets. I'm thinking "they" might be right... perhaps I DO have issues. This particular pillow I bought makes me laugh... it's not at all fancy or classy. It features artwork with a woman (assuming a mother) pushing her child into the "donation bin." The kid's feet are sticking out of the bin and the mother looks disgusted and determined to make the kid fit. My own mother looked at it and exclaimed, "What in the world?!" I explained it to her and she said, "Someone put that on a PILLOW? I don't get it." And I was all, "Yay! I'm too weird for my own mom!"

My wife has a quirky, oddball sense of humor like that. She laughs at absurdity. It's one of the things that makes me love her. Just be yourself, and never stop :-)

I'd probably get along great with your wife! Thankfully, my husband also seems to love me either because of... or in spite of, depending on the day... my absurdity.

Just awful. Do you realize that if we were men, we wouldn't even care whether we slept on a mattress or ever saw a pillowcase again? I know that is very sexist of me but I've seen no evidence to the contrary in all my years. lol. I change the sheets and jump into bed almost singing with excitement because it just feels so... NICE. Hubby says 'huh? oh. yeah. But why did they need changing?'
There is hardly any space in the office refrigerator today because several people have put their lunches in there, but the lunches are in large bulky insulated lunch bags. Most of these are fancy sports bags or fancy designer type bags.
Don't they realize that the better insulated the bag is, the more they are keeping the cold OUT of bag, away from their lunch? They should leave the bulky insulated bag near their desk and just put the food in the fridge. Then all would be right with the world.
I got both of my dogs new ID tags. The new tags "jingle" differently from the old tags. The new jingling is not better or worse, but it just sounds different.
Now I have to adjust to the new sound when the dogs walk around.

Oh, man.
I bought our dogs new collars. The metal ring thingies that you attach their tags to is fatter than the old collars, which I have already thrown away. This means that the tags sometimes get a bit twisted and then they don't hang down - they just stick out to the side, and it looks REALLY stupid and weird.
Crocheted a throw rug for my Granddaughter's new room, to put next to her new bed, in the colors she ask for (deep purple and white) now she wants it in deep purple, white and red? She is 3 1/2 so will change her mind next week, but she did tell me that I am her bestest fwend, so guess I will start another throw rug this afternoon .
My beard is stiff and hard to manage. I guess I have to start using conditioner or else I might get split ends. I wonder if a soft beard will make me better looking?
