Since I recently redid my bedroom, I got rid of all of my old sheets and got
new ones. I used to think that I liked flannel ones. I did like the ones
they made in the 80's. These days they are horrid. Perhaps good ones are
available for a hefty price but I don't like to pay a lot for things like
sheets. I also got lucky in that I found some good quality sheets on
clearance that actually match my room colors. For years, I made do with
whatever I could get a good price on. I think I have 4 sets now. I actually
found a brand new set in the closet that I don't even recall buying. I did
buy a lot of stuff from a place in NJ some years ago. They seem to sell only
towels now. I may have gotten the sheets from them. Also got rugs, tote
bags, pillows and some beaded coasters.

I learned to stuff the sheets into the or one of the pillowcases. If I don't
do that, something always goes missing. I did have space issues. I don't now
after buying extra storage pieces. Now I have plenty of extra storage.

I don't know who designed my bedroom but they should have been fired. Plenty
of storage for shoes but not much else. Do all Filipinos have a thing for
shoes or something?
