Grandson David helped us bring in all the bags from shopping, and as soon as everything was unloaded, he said “I want to try setting up the cot.”
The camping cot caught David’s eye in Aldi’s. We have had very good luck with things we’ve bought there, and he thought the cot would be great for sleeping in the van. Evidently it was comfortable enough for playing games on the phone.

Sadie had to try it out, too. David is showing a new fashion in wearing a necktie. He is modeling a shoulder throw.

I would need my cot a bit higher off the floor…to be able to get up from it…assuming I could get down there in the first place. 🙂

You’d be surprised at what you can do when you have to. I slept on a low air mattress while daughter Lise was here. It was easier at the end of five weeks.

What a great buy! I go to Aldi, I always find amazing things there and very good food. I love their Simply Nature and organics. Such good prices too! I’ll keep my eyes open for those cots. We just had a Lidl built across the street from Aldi. It also is good, but I still think Aldi is better.

I haven’t seen a Lidl in this area. We usually shop at Aldi’s and at a local chain. Since COVID began, Aldi’s almost never has the specials in their flyers. David just happened to see the cot there.

That looks amazing! I have no problem sleeping in a car, but the crevices get uncomfortable sometimes. This is a brilliant solution. Will have to look in my Aldi for a couple.

As long as Sadie and David approve, then it should work out just fine!

The new “necktie look” is cool. (At first glance I thought it was a pair of suspenders!)
