Before & After: A Trashed Curbside Dresser Eve of Reduction

I usually leave paper towels, a roll of tp in the holder, some cleaning supplies. When I moved in March, however, I ran out if time and was moving from a huge 2 bedroom to a small 1 bedroon with no kitchen storage. I left my vinrage cut glass, crystal and green glass cake plates and aluminum cake saver covers! I hope someone used them.

The thought of being in this bathroom makes me breathless. Feels quite unsafe! I'm sure you'd get used to it though!

I don't have a boxspring and boy do I miss my old mattress and boxspring set! I have a giant pillowtop mattress, supposedly oh so deluxe, which has not held up well at all. I want a normal, well constructed mattress which is flippable (to extend life), and nothing so high as these ridiculous, heavy "princess and the pea", stupidly high, pillowtop mattresses! Can you feel my frustration? Finally, my bed is now on the floor as it was much too heavy for the platform bed with slats (which broke). Horrid sleep experience either way though.

I am going to search for a good old fashioned mattress manufacturer. These non-flippable monstrosities were just a way for mattress companies to make more money because they wear out quicker since you can't rotate them.

If anyone can recommend a good, traditional mattress, I'd be most grateful.
