Deep Sleep. The best gift ever.

I received the most amazing gift this Christmas…

A 14 pound Weighted Blanket.

Ever since seeing the episode of NBC’s Parenthood where Hattie gives her brother Max a 25 pound blanket, I’ve been joking that I needed one too. Never thinking I actually DID need a weighted blanket.

But Tim thought there may actually be something to this idea.

Maybe he was clued in by the fact that I was using more blankets per night than a normal person could ever want or need. Or, maybe he was just motivated to remedy the nightly blanket chaos that often crept onto his side by morning.

Regardless of the reasoning, my thoughtful husband has changed my life!

Ever since adding 14 pounds of weight to cover my body, I have enjoyed the deepest, most luxurious sleep I’ve experienced in decades. If you think you might need a weighted blanket too, here’s where Tim got mine… http://www.sensorygoods.com/

I would add a photo of my new most prized possession, but there really is nothing pretty about this blanket. It is purely functional (yet purely perfect) for my sensitive body — which apparently needs to be covered by 14 pounds of weight per night, before feeling just right.

Since I can’t show you the blanket, here is a another incredibly thoughtful (yet unfortunately not quite so appreciated) gift that was given in our house this year.

CHRISTMAS DAY 2012. Lucy wearing her new hand-made scarf, loving woven for her by our son.

FIVE SECONDS LATER. Lucy frantically removing her new scarf. Apparently NOT a favorite gift.
