So last week I decided to splash out on a new mattress after the apartment contract was renewed for another year (phew!) and I thought it was going to take ages to do a bunch of research, look around online and in the shops, etc. I mean, you don’t buy a new mattress every day and, lets face it, this is probably the last one I will ever have to buy. Turns out that on Saturday I went over to El Corte Inglés and saw this one on a “flash sale” for 50% off and somehow 15 minutes later both Peter and I had bought one each. I mean FLEX is a good brand, I liked that this one is “flippable” (last one wasn’t) and it sure felt good when I lay down on it. So what the heck. Now just waiting for delivery.

Signed my new contract for Casa Azahar today and so… phew! At least one more year here (and hopefully many more). But every year it’s the same thing, getting all stressed about maybe having to move and I really really really don’t want to have to do that, frankly ever again. Anyhow I promised myself that if I didn’t have to move this summer I would splash out on a new mattress while the sales were on. Looking back, I bought my present bed back in October 2012 so it’s probably overdue by now, plus there’s a noticeable dip in the centre. Peter’s isn’t quite as old (March 2016) but his mattress wasn’t that great to start off with, so that’s it. We’re both going mattress shopping! No idea what I’m looking for. The IKEA one I bought with the frame was fine but I can’t remember anything about it. This could take a while… any tips?

So this year Luna not only got a new cat stand (as she does every year) she got an upgrade. I usually just get the same model as it’s cheap and doesn’t last long anyhow. But this time I was looking around online, saw this slightly taller one (with more dangly bits) for about the same price and decided what the heck. As soon as I got it unpacked and on the table Luna was all over it, glaring at me as if to say… WELL, GET TO WORK. So I did and, once finished, she showed her approval by immediately ripping the shit out of it.
