A few weeks ago while wandering aimlessly through the Sutherlin Bi Mart store, I noticed fleece sheets for a king size bed on sale for $45. I thought to myself, those would be nice on these cold winter nights, since the old flannel sheets that I have are rotated as they wear out after developing holes in them over the last few years are in need of replacement. Now that I think about those old sheets they must be 10 years old or more. Maybe it was divine intervention from Celia telling me, " don't leave the store without them!"
