This may not seem like a big deal to some people, but I'm in heaven. I ordered new pillows because the Bay was having a sale on, and they arrived yesterday.

Now please understand my old pillows were at least 20 years old, if not older so they were kind of flat, hard, and lumpy. My new pillows are huge, soft and fluffy. It's going to take me some time to get used to my new pillows but I love them already.

Wow! Your old pillows were 20 years old!?!?! I can see why you are so excited. The new pillows have to feel like a little bit of heaven. I hate flat pillows. I always get excited whenever I get something new and comfy. It always boosts my mood.

I'm happy for you!

I have new pillows too. I bought them last Spring and they feel like a new toy
Mine were about the same age as yours. When I got my new ones I read that they should be replaced every 6 months!!

Oh I also understand. I've been having a pillow fight all year! I need new pillows about every 3 months...the average person is supposed to change pillows twice a year (yep.) But the last pillows I bought had a year's warranty and they failed at 8 weeks... and I took them back and had them replaced...which also failed...but I either destroyed the receipts or just can't find them... and I've been too stubborn to just go buy new ones and enjoy a better night's sleep!

Sleep is imperative for good health (mental, emotional, physical) and good pillows contribute to it.

Good to hear you're in "heaven" when you sleep.
