Sleepy Head

Hello Lovelies, it's a gorgeous day in San Francisco, but as lovely as it is, I can't get one image out of my head:

That's right, our bed.

Instead of roaming around the sunny city yesterday, I pathetically spent most of the day on the couch, tired. Maybe it was life catching up with me - I do pretty much hit the ground running everyday at 6:30am. Or maybe just that time of the month.

But Mr. Spice is starting to wonder if it's something more.

He thinks it's high time we get a new mattress. AND he thinks we need to upgrade to a King.

I am having a hard time fighting against his reasoning. We've had our current mattress for seven years, and with the dog and cat- sometimes there can be four of us in the bed, so going larger wouldn't be a bad idea.

But here's the thing- mattresses are 'spensive.

Especially, organic or eco-friendly mattresses. Man. Those run from $1,000 to $2,000 (or even $5,000).

So here's my question to you- How long should a mattress be good for?

Do you think that a new mattress will get rid of my sleepy head? And do you have any thoughts on the best new mattresses?

Please discuss. I am going to try not do fall asleep at my desk. K, thanks.
