CHRISTMAS SHOPPING

It's late and I'm sitting here debating about a possible Christmas gift for Christopher.
Tony didn't think Christopher would like it as a Christmas present but I found a round about way to ask him to see what he thought. He liked the idea.
Christopher has been complaining to me that his bed is uncomfortable. Today at the thrift store I saw a really nice bed with a really nice pillow top mattress. I think it was oak and 3 large drawers that went underneath the bed ( I hope they were drawers and not a trundle bed as I did not look closely at it) and seemed really sturdy. While I don't really need the bed I probably couldn't afford a nice mattress like that if I bought it new. It was $89 for the complete set, bed/frame/drawers and mattress. I'm hoping to go back to the thrift store tomorrow and see if it's still there. Don't ask how I would get it into mom's truck but if there's a will there's a way. It'll be a lot of work to get it but it's something needed. Hauling it out of the store, out of the truck to mom's basement, hauling back out of basement and into truck Christmas eve and into the house for Christmas morning. Whew! I'm tired just thinking about it. But it is practical and something needed and should last a long time!
Their beds now I got 10 years ago from the Salvation Army Thrift store for $50 for the complete set, mattresses, bunk boards, frame, ladder and headboard/foot board.
I have already replaced Jonathan's mattress with a nice one from Freecycle. And I think I replaced Christopher's with another one but it wasn't as durable as Jonathan's.
So I'm gonna sleep on it and see what tomorrow has in store for me. Right now I am fighting a cold. Mom's don't get days off so I try to keep going even when sick! I just hope I make the right decision on the bed since $90 is a lot of money to me! We have only purchased 2 pieces of new furniture in our house in the last 10 years! A kitchen table and chairs and a bed frame for our bed with head and foot board. No mattresses as that was given to us by my brother who invested about $1200 in it and decided he wanted a sleep number bed. Must be nice! Some of it don't have it that easy! He buys his kid a $500 or so firetruck bed and doesn't bat an eyelash. And I will be up worrying all night over a $90 bed.
