So ever since that muscle in my back clenched (and stayed that way👍👍) back in January, I’ve had to remove the memory foam mattress cover thing I had because it was too painful to climb up out of it. It’s been just kind of folded beside my sewing table for months now.

I finally decided to find a way to store it, and I bought these straps. It sounds weird, but just buying things like the tools I need to store what I have instead of being upset with myself for owning things has only happened in the last five years or so. What I love in particular is getting practical utility items in colors and styles I like. It didn’t cost any more than basic black to get these in neon green :)

Will it fit in my closet now, I do not know for sure, but it will not be slowly oozing over the floor at least

This feels like a “teaching myself stuff I was cruelly taught the opposite of as a child,” so ‘buy shit to fix your storage and space problems (it can even be not the most basic boring version!) and relieve stress in the process’ is probably basic shit most other people have already got locked in, but I was either screamed at or neglected in an attic for the first half of my life, so we’re figuring it out

tl;dr: look at my green straps, i hope they help me get this thing into storage
