If you know me, or read me, then you are aware that I have back problems. This in turn has caused me to have neck problems, which of course causes life problems. Well, finally I have relief. I bought a nice (and fairly expensive) down pillow yesterday and woke up with a moderately loose neck. I feel so much better than I have in the past year!

The pillow is from Pacific Coast and the reason I bought it is because I remembered the brand from when we stayed at the Luxor in Las Vegas. We stayed there the two nights before the wedding and then moved to Mandalay Bay for the 2 nights after. Well, I slept so well at the Luxor that I looked at the pillow tag – Pacific Coast The bed was eh.

I don’t know why it took me so long to buy a nice pillow. Price probably. I can be a cheapo sometimes. I’ve bought a couple of pillows in the last year. You know, ones specifically designed for side sleepers and back sleepers as I sleep on both. A bit of a tosser, I’d say I am. These pillows were probably in the $15.00 range and I would still have to end up putting a rolled towel under so my head wasn’t cocked down too far to one side.

But wellbeing is worth a lot so I finally just did it. So worth it. The down supports and cuddles and keeps my heavy head even. My back feels a bit better too. Ah relief. It feels great.
