Sheets

can sometimes be difficult to find.
(So, just to forewarn you, this might
be one of the most random blog
posts I've ever done before.
Random.
But, I feel like I must write it.
Why?
I have no idea.
But I do.)

Anyway,
back in August, I bought a bed.
And what a absolutely marvelous bed it is.
Seriously.
It's memory foam.
It conforms to my body when I sleep.
It's so comfortable.
Well, when I bought the bed,
I didn't realize that my sheets wouldn't fit.
I figured my twin size sheets
should fit my new twin size bed.
Right?!
Nope.
They sure did not fit!
Well, that's not true.
One set fit,
but the other one didn't.
Funny thing is,
they are the same brand, same size.
So, here I was with only one sheet set that
fit my bed.
Just one.
And yeah,
I could have lived with just one sheet set.
But I just wanted one extra set,
just in case.
So,
I asked my parents for new sheets for my birthday!
It seemed like a smart idea.
I needed new sheets,
and I knew they would be happy to get me some.
When my birthday finally arrived,
I opened my gift from my parents,
and what do you know?
they got me three sets of sheets!
It was such a joyous occasion!
They were bright, vibrant colors!
And I knew they would match the other colors in my room!
I immediately took them out of the packaging
and put them on my bed to see if they would fit!
And they just barely did,
but I thought the just barely would be enough.
So I washed them.
...
The results weren't so pretty.
They shrunk.
A lot.
And by a lot,
I mean they wouldn't even reach all four corners
of my twin size bed!
It should not be that difficult to get sheets that fit my
silly bed!
Anyway,
all of the sheet sets that my parents got me
ended up not fitting my bed.
So, I ended up taking them back tonight.
In their place, I walked away
with one sheet set
(along with a few other things).
But this one sheet set is good.
I think it'll actually work.
I'm about to go take them out of the dryer and
see.
...
...
And we've got a winner!!
Woot!

Silly, I know.
But this is so exciting!
I have another sheet set now!

Anyway,
life is good.
It's been a long week.
But the Lord has been faithful
in it all.
And I'm so thankful He's still working in my heart.

Blessings.
