This is sort of how I feel, evening darkness followed by a little blue. I bought a memory foam mattress topper for the bed last Thursday week and have had difficulty ever since getting off to sleep upon it. The first night, all seemed good and it was fine and I slept extremely well, waking hours later refreshed. Since then however, every night has become something of a big struggle to succumb to sleep and I'm not entirely sure why as it feels comfortable enough. It may take a while longer to naturally adjust to its spongey consistency and the way it moulds and shapes around your body slightly differently each time you rest. I'm not about to give up on using it. I hope in the long run the memory foam will be a better bedding choice than being without it (no doubt it's just different to what I'm used to) I'm used to a full zzz z zz zzzz and I'm only getting ........zz z zz!
Do you have to sleep in the same position every time I wonder !!! This is a beautifully composed shot Matt..those lovely straight trees with fluffy tops coming up through the middle like that !!
@happypat lol No, you don't, Pat. It reshapes back to it's original form after every sleep. It's quite good really. It just takes some getting used to.
We got a memory foam mattress and I've been suffering from a bit of insomnia too. I wonder why, because every time I lay down, it's SO comfortable! Anyways - beautiful misty view you've got here.
@sabresun well that's actually what the sales guy told us too, which is why we bought a "cooling" cover to go with it that prevents that, so I don't think that's the problem in our case.
@pwallis I think it tends to raise body temperature as it's extra insulation underneath you. I think that can make it harder to get to sleep until you adjust to it. That's my theory. Plus it can be an effort to turn over. The hardships of modern life!
@aj1268 I think they are good, but you do need the cooling cover to go with it too. It's taken me a long time to get used to it, and some nights are still a bit of an ordeal. Having said that, some of the deep sleeps I've had with it have been the best for years.
well now, see if i had only saw this picture before, then i would have understood your lack of zzzzz and I wouldn't have just thought you were the crazy man that doesn't sleep. it all makes sense now. hopefully you will get use to it soon and you will be back to some nice full zzzzzzzz zzzzzzzzzzz zzzzzzzz zzzzzzz
This is a beautiful eerie shot. I love misty scenes. A shame you're not getting your full quota of zzzzs. I find that as soon as I focus on trying to get enough sleep it eludes me with irritating persistence!

I'm tempted to buy one of these. I'll be interested in your final verdict.
