So years (and I mean years ago) my Mother gave me this bright idea of "storing things under your bed between your box spring and your mattress like bedding and other linens".
I've had a twin so I've done a lot of folding of these said items and they built up for many years without even getting a look at.
Needless to say, packrat that I am I thought this idea was simply genius and did it for years.
Well, everyone gets in habits and routines, such as: using one or two pairs of sheets and same with a comforter and keeping everything else.
So, after a while, times change, things add up and I notice my mattress is rather lumpy.
Having purchased a new mattress a few years back, I never actually changed my bedframe/box spring and things Bevan to accumulate. Evil things.
After years of "mattress lumpiness". I finally got fed up and stripped everything that has accumulated between my mattress and boxspring-all the way back to thw time period of the old mattress.
Here's the list of junk I found, needless to say my bed has gone down maybe a foot and

For whatever reason (I hope you read that in sarcasm) it feels smooth and flat.
Amongst the items I found:
*My missing Seattle Mariners hat in badass brown and pink.
*about 7 pillow cases
*3 or 4 comforters
4 full sheets sets
*2 baby blankets
*car seat covers
*9 blankets my Mom sewed for me through the years
*7 blankets that were either gifted to me or store bought
*2 snuggys
*4 towells
*a bed skirt
*4 sets of curtains
*tree skirt
*scarf
*my Eddie Bauer bucket hat
*more hats

Did I mention my mattress doesn't feel lumpy anymore?
Problem diagnosed. Now I'm looking at piles of neatly folded linens and looking forward to sleeping in a position that isn't slightly inclined for the first time in my own bed in several years.

Here is all of the stuff I pulled out from under my bed.
Lesson learned, these things cannot consume me anymore!
