Bed Time Stories

Our bed has finally given up the ghost and reposed :-0

This was my dear husband`s bed long before he met me, it is now 13 years old.
After 4 years of being used daily as a trampoline by the two youngest children, various springs have been in a bad state of repair, and we did actually order a new bed in November.........it is currently in the dining room, awaiting the completion of the new bedroom renovations :-)

Last night, however, was the last straw.
Both DH and I woke up at the crack of dawn to find that well over half the bed is down to the base, with a huge hollow in which we were sleeping. We could barely move because of back pain, and we have decided that today is the day we move the new bed into our current bedroom and stuff waiting for the intended bedroom to be completed.
To spend another night in that bed would be an act of reckless asceticism ;-)

Hi Laura
Yep, it was worth every penny we spent upon it !

About being fruitful, though.....that would require a miracle :-)
Our quiver is officially full,for medical reasons. We are blessed with four lovely daughters :-)

Hi Christina
I loved the idea of reckless asceticism too :-)
It just occurred to me out of the blue....I don`t know how it could be officially defined though !!
