Sleep

I really should get a new mattress.  But as a temporary (?) fix, I have got myself a mattress topper.  And not a cheap one - but that's OK, because I think I can claim it as a wellness expense at work.  And so far so good.  I haven't been waking up with back or shoulder pain, something I had been suffering from prior to having the topper.  The one drawback, the memory foam mattress topper I got must have a depth of about 3 inches.  So that on top of my mattress makes my bed look weirdly tall, and it also means that my fitted sheets don't really fit properly.  But that is a compromise I can live with if it means a better night's sleep.
