I think of my bed as my own personal nest. I've always felt that way. And my nest requirements are pretty exacting: soft sheets, lots of pillows, a good mattress that feels just cushy enough (I know it when I feel it), and the proper mix of covers. I like soft colors.....nothing too bold for me because, if it all works out, I'd like to sleep in this bed, not be energized. My current bed is pretty tall so I have to climb up on it. But I like that too: I feel like the princess and the pea (though there is no pea under my mattress).
I am a girl of exacting precision when it comes to the nest. The proper mix of covers varies with the seasons. In the very depth of winter, the proper mix is flannel sheets, a warm fleece blanket, down comforter in a flannel duvet cover, and on top of it all, my down quilt. That's the bed Lucy the cat is pictured in here.
That's a post for another day.

Ain't no crime to like it the way you like it.
Yep. When it matters, it matters. Cozy bed and cozy cat!
I too love my bed, so I can relate! I love to cuddle up under the covers with a good book and get all cozy.
FYI, I've started my own writing prompt site, and would love it if you would participate.

To much time sitting here, not enough time in bed! Your post made me yawn - in the nicest possible way!!!
Reading this I suddenly feel the urge to crawl back into bed and snuggle in under the covers.
No down on mine though - I'm violently allergic. I end up barking like a seal. I woke up an entire floor of a French hotel once after an attempt to use a feather pillow.
