Weighted blanket = win.

Nowhere near recovered from insufficient sleep for long period of time, but... I slept deeply enough for at least part of the night that the alarm _sound_ had to wake me, rather than the light portion.

It's a bit odd that the blanket's weights are in stripes, rather than throughout the blanket, but this does mean I can remove them when it comes time to wash it, and thus not kill washing machines or driers. And I clearly got used to it, and it was still useful.

So. Weighted blanket review = positive. We'll see if it continues to be as good, but I suspect it will. Way less exhausted today.

Win!

How very intriguing. I've always found a heavy blanket useful for helping me sleep, but it never occurred to me to put weights into one. As a fellow insomniac, this is fine food for thought -- thanks...
