thefridayfive:
1. What size (twin, full, etc.) is your bed?
King plus twin xl, all shoved up together. Chris sleeps on the twin, Tammie and I share the king.
2. How many pillows do you sleep with?
As many as I can get. Three or four under my head (usually at least one has fallen down behind the bed and I have fewer) and a special support one between my knees.
3. Do you have a weighted blanket? If so, does it help you?
I don't, although I kind of want one. Our new quilt is pretty heavy but not actually weighted, and it helps. Chris has one that Tammie and I just finished for him (after about two years of in-progress) and he loves it.
4. Do you sleep with any stuffed animals?
Yes. The bed is full of stuffies, but my especial one is a green tie-dyed triceratops named Leelanau after the peninsula in Michigan where we vacation. She mostly gets called Leeloo (as in Leeloo Dallas Multi-Pass). Tammie has an elephant named Jerome (after nothing in particular, he just looked like a Jerome), and Chris has an assortment of mooses, all named variations on Moose: Moose-lissa, Chrismoose, etc. There's also a big fuzzy bear, creatively named Barry.
5. Do you have to have the TV on to go to sleep?
Hell to the no. No TV, no music, no audiobooks. I can't sleep with anything that has words or melodies my mind will try to follow. I prefer no noise at all, but we compromise on wave sounds or rain sounds. I hate mechanical white noise, so I get really grumpy in the summer when the air conditioner and/or fan have to be on.
