This is the time when we start seeing New Years Resolutions you know. LIKE EVERY 15 MIN ON SOCIAL MEDIA.

Win the lottery.

Go to africa and find treasure.

Lose 100 pounds.

Go to the gym everyday 6 hours a day.

Teach my kids not to toss clothes in the floor.

Cook a hot meal and have it ready everyday when the husband gets home 7 days a week.

Okay okay bullshit !! I’m sorry I know some people really make and stick to New Years Resolutions; well like 3 but whatever.

Know what i want mine to be for 2015 ?? I just want to find a good pillow yes a pillow i fight with mine nightly and feel like tossing my husband and child outside it makes me so mad.

So before my pillow causes a divorce and homicidal thoughts i have made it my New Years Resolution. And I’m going to see it through. Just take a look below I’m posting the monstrosities I’ve been laying my head on for the past few months.

Devil #1

Yes this is a standard size pillow folded in 1/2 with a knot. It freaking sucks.

Devil #2

I know it looks like a sex arch it’s really not they sold this mess as a pillow! !

Devil#3

This fleece “princess” pillow is currently my affair. It’s hot as hell and no longer even holds my head up as high as i like. And this came out of my 5 year olds room.

See what i mean i deserve this resolution even if i buy a $5000 gold plated pillow.

This is also in our room above the door leading to the deck. This will not be the case if i do not own a new pillow asap.

Your probably thinking this woman is insane well yes i am and so much worse at night when I’m “pillow fighting”.

  2. OMG hahaha!! This was hilarious. I wrote one similar! Okay, so my DENTIST (of all people) swears by the 'My Pillow'. I haven't bought it yet but he told me to get it. I laughed because it's on an infomercial! hahaha! I think I might get it though. I'll keep you posted as to how it works. Who knows, they likely have 'Buy One & Get One for Free' as EVERY informercial does--i can mail it to you. haha!!!!

  3. Hahaha! Hilarious post. But seriously, a good pillow can be hard to come by. My husband stole the good one literally from under my head the other night when we were staying at my parents' and i got stuck with the lame flat one. Good luck on your quest, Laci!

  5. *laugh* I relate to this post SO MUCH. My side of our bed is a graveyard of pillowlike objects I hoped would work but tend to get flung in the middle of the night. I think this is an excellent resolution! I'd love it if you'd share this at Reviews, Chews & How-Tos this week for our first Awesome Life Friday Link Up http://rchreviews.blogspot.com

  7. Hi, thanks for stopping by the Sweet Saturday linkup :-) I love my pillow but whenever I sleep somewhere other than in my own bed I can't sleep properly because I don't have my own perfect pillow with me :-P

  10. Oh the plight of the perfect pillow!! I have searched high and low. Finally a friend recommended My Pillow. I was in love for the first 3 weeks. Then poof, it too was no longer comfortable. Good luck with your search.

  11. Oh My Gosh LOL that is so funny, I have a battel with my pillow too, but not quit so much as you. I do hope you will find a "Cool" pillow soon. Thanks for visiting to share your story on Friday Features!!! Happy New Year!!

  12. Oh, my gosh! I've been on a quest for the perfect pillow for so long. I bought my husband a really expensive pillow for Christmas, and when I asked him after a few days what he thought of it, he said, "It's fine." Fine. Aaargh...
    Reply

    • haha of course who wants to hear "fine" !!! my husband could use a book for a pillow. im about to break down and buy a expensive one and see if it's worth the hype.

  13. A nice way to vent your frustration. Take it out on your pillow. I seldom even sleep on one.

  15. OMG - I love this! I was going to make searching for the perfect pillow as part of my 2015 live healthy challenge. It has been year's since I've had a good pillow. We just bought new ones - memory foam - and I don't like them at all. I've bought expensive feather pillows, cheap target pillows - none are to my liking. If you find one let us know.

  20. Ha...my hubby and I actually got into a fight this morning about how I threw all of the pillows on the floor last night for the dog to use. Oops, I swear I was sleep pillow throwing!

  21. Dropping by from the blog hop! I have to admit that I bought our pillows at Costco and they are pretty awesome! You can read my resolution at middleagemonologues.blogspot.com. :)

  22. Haha! I love your New Years resolution! Good luck on your journey to find that perfect pillow. I'm stopping by from the blog hop wishing your a happy Monday, at least if the pillow acts right tonight.

  24. I paid heaps for my current pillow and it was amazing. Now I think I need to replace it. It's not doing the job lately. Good luck.
    Reply

  25. I use a version of #2 but they're not all equal that's for sure. There's only one brand that cuts it and a new one every year or so is a must or else it's neck pain and headaches. Good luck!

  26. Ha! I hope you find a pillow. I think this is my husbands resolution because I kinda stole his favorite pillow when I was pregnant with our last 2 children and well, I haven't given it back. I would love if you linked this up to my Crafty Chaos Tuesdays! Good luck on your search and thanks for sharing!

  29. This was HILARIOUS. You had me at the title. Loved it. And I wish I could tell you what my pillow was! My in-laws bought it for me though and I have no idea. But it's perfect. I will punch anyone who tries to take it. :) Good luck!!

  32. I've given up on the perfect pillow. It doesn't exist! I have an OK pillow that works for now but it wont be long till it falls into the crap category! I usually make about 10-15 resolutions a year and only stick by maybe 3. LOL My husband's resolution is not to make any. He always sticks by his. Thanks for linking up this week to Scraptastic Saturdays.

  34. Good luck with the perfect pillow search - you deserve something wonderful to lay your head on! I've always wanted to be able to do the splits, every year I tack it on to my resolutions but sadly without putting any effort it, somehow I have never been able to magically become more flexible. I can't imagine why!

  35. We are going through the same thing at the moment! The pillow search isn't for the light hearted, that is for sure. Thanks for linking up at Mum-bo Monday. This post will be featured this week with the most clicks!

  36. This is hilarious!! I can never find a pillow that I like and usually have to use 2 (and on occasion 3!) to get comfy! There is a lot of pillow stealing and throw pillow use too...my kids seem to have the same problem! They all have AT LEAST a pillow pet and a normal pillow in their rooms and I never know what they are going to use! Good luck on your search for the perfect pillow :-)

  37. I hope you get a gold plated pillow, because if I had the pillow-fights you're having our entire family would be in for it here! I may even bring in the extended relatives because I wouldn't be able to take it lol! :) For New Years, I've "resolved" to have a word - Open! Stopping by from Mommy Mondays!

  39. This totally made me laugh. I use to sleep with 8 pillows... I am not lying. When I was pregnant with my last child I went to target and bought the body pillow and I LOVE it. Everyone in the house knows that's mine!! Not sharing. Maybe that can help your pillow problems. Ps I love the quote on top of the door! Where did you get it from? Melissa

  41. Found you on the link up and I love this post! Its so great :) Who doesn't want to lose 100 pounds am i right?!
    Reply

  42. I understand your struggle entirely! I'm always hopeful when I bring new pillows home, only for them to turn flat after about two weeks. Then it involves lots of shuffling and arranging to get comfortable, and even that doesn't last long! Wishing you all the best in your hunt!

  43. Too funny, Laci! My husband and I just had this very same conversation the other night - our pillows are so sad and deflated! It's seriously annoying! Good luck on your New Year's resolution - and thank you so much for sharing at Talented Tuesdays!

  46. I love the happy wife happy life! My dad told me this my whole life, but I think he should have been telling my husband instead :)!

  47. Too funny! When my mother and I cleaned out the attic last year there were 17 pillows (at least) from a year or two of trying to find the "perfect" one. For the record...still no luck. My favorite pillows seem to be the ones at the Marriott - though I usually sleep with 2 of them when there. I keep telling myself I should look into buying them, but I've already spent so much on pillows I'm afraid to take the leap. Thanks for joining last week's #throwbackthursdaylinkup. Adding your post to my "fav" of the week!

  49. Now, that's what I call a resolution! It's doable, it's simple - I love it. I briefly thought about making it my New Year's Resolution to find all the missing Mr. Potato Head parts in our house, but then I decided that was way too ambitious.
