This picture shows how the bed looked yesterday. Usually the shams on the two biggest pillows match the light blue comforters, but I thought it would be nice for a change to use the shams that match the dark blue coverlet. I keep the coverlet on the bed simply because I couldn&#8217;t resist buying it, so I have to use it somehow. It&#8217;s super soft and nice to lie down on for quick naps. All those things can&#8217;t stay on the bed all night, though, so every night before sleep, I fold the coverlet in half, roll it up, and put it on the chest at the foot of the bed. Then I pile the pillows up on the ottoman. This nighttime ritual can be annoying on those occasional nights when I&#8217;m exhausted and want to go to sleep immediately, but most nights it&#8217;s soothing, as most rituals are, which is why we bother having them.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/bluefootedmusings.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/bed2-1-500x333.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16971\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" srcset=\"http:\/\/bluefootedmusings.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/bed2-1-500x333.jpg 500w, http:\/\/bluefootedmusings.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/bed2-1-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/bluefootedmusings.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/bed2-1-768x511.jpg 768w, http:\/\/bluefootedmusings.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/bed2-1.jpg 1074w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption>Here is the same scene from a different angle to show that the bookcase headboard isn&#8217;t as dinky as it looks in the other picture. But where, you may ask, are all the books? If you&#8217;re going to have a bookcase headboard, shouldn&#8217;t there be more books? You&#8217;d think so, but it turns out that I like having just that one stack of unread books. It&#8217;s easy to dust around and small enough that it feels like it will be a simple task to read them all. But, to be honest, I always read the book that&#8217;s on top, and when I&#8217;m done with it I put a new book on top. So I&#8217;m not not sure when I&#8217;ll get to the rest of the stack, but whatever. \ud83d\ude42<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/bluefootedmusings.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/bed2-500x333.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16948\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" srcset=\"http:\/\/bluefootedmusings.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/bed2-500x333.jpg 500w, http:\/\/bluefootedmusings.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/bed2-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/bluefootedmusings.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/bed2-768x512.jpg 768w, http:\/\/bluefootedmusings.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/bed2.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><figcaption>Here is a close-up of Tiggy, the Three-Legged Hedgehog. She is the softest stuffed animal in the universe. Someday I will sew her missing leg back on. In the meantime, she seems content to act as a decorative pillow with character. The star pillow is from Target. I purchased it for $5 on a whim. I had only planned to use it for the Christmas season, but I&#8217;ve since decided to keep it permanently, because it matches the twilight mood of the room.<br><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/bluefootedmusings.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16946"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/bluefootedmusings.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/bluefootedmusings.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/bluefootedmusings.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/bluefootedmusings.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=16946"}],"version-history":[{"count":15,"href":"http:\/\/bluefootedmusings.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16946\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16990,"href":"http:\/\/bluefootedmusings.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/16946\/revisions\/16990"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/bluefootedmusings.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=16946"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/bluefootedmusings.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=16946"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/bluefootedmusings.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=16946"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
