FINALLY- I broke down and gave in to the "king bed fight" Abe and I have been having for 3 years now. When we first got married, Abe asked me, "So don't you think we should get a King?" Me being frugal and totally happy with my cute queen bed I had just purchased 2 years prior denied his claim. It wasn't until 1 week ago (and 7 months into pregnancy) that I discovered I was using more pillows to keep me propped up and comfy AND my poor hubby was sleeping like a sardine in our queen bed because I was taking up all the room. (Sorry Abe!)
So, without further ado, we went mattress shopping. We hit all the "white sales" and even a few places I had no clue even had mattresses, before finding the right one. Mattress purchasing as a couple is very difficult because I like a softer sleep and he likes a firm mattress. Totally fine- we compromised. And we are both totally satisfied with our situation. Except for one minor detail. We don't have a king BED.
We didn't even have king slats to rest the box spring and mattress on. So, what did we do? We purchased a ghetto fabulous 'universal bed frame' from Sam's Club and put that sucker together.
What's that you say? Do I have bedding? Whoops. Nope. Don't have that either. We have one set of king sheets and A king blanket to sleep with. Wait, what? You want to know how someone of my age and with a dual income doesn't have an actual bed, just the gangta' frame and blanket? Yeah- no clue dude. No clue. I have a feeling that before this baby (named Luke btw) is birthed that we may be venturing out to purchase an actual bed (with rails and everything, people!).
Needless to say, we are LOVING the king on wheels (side note: there are wheels on the ghetto-fab universal frame).
