Not until every person is sleeping on a Helix mattress. Wherever we go, we do our best to make sure we are sleeping on one. And certainly when we are at the lake house or at any home that we may own, we want to make sure that we have a Helix mattress.
I can't tell you how many times we have traveled and I've been sleeping in a hotel bed and my back hurts, my neck hurts, I'm struggling and I get home and I sleep in my Helix mattress and all of those worries and pains are gone forever.
If you've ever looked or thought about getting a new mattress, there's no other place you need to go than Helix. Stop wasting time going to mattress stores and having to deal with people, I don't know, doing whatever they do at mattress stores.

Chapter 2: How did Dakota's Thanksgiving hookup affect her friend group?
So, you know, coupled with the fact that like, I get, you know, no one likes to be left out, but there's a good chance being in this group chat would make you feel not better, but worse.
Yeah. No, and I never thought of it that way. I think it was just more of like, wow, just another thing that like I wasn't included in. And again, it just makes you feel like, like you said, the Cinderella of like the evil stepmom and the evil stepsister storyline.
Yeah, I don't think you have to be confrontational. If you ever wanted to, to your dad to say, I would really love it if you would include me more, if you were willing to do that with the stuff that you do with the family. And if you don't want to, that's fine, but it would mean a lot to me if you included me more.
Yeah. And I think I'm just like scared to bring it up because anytime him and I like the conversations we have, it's like talking to like a colleague because you're so scared to say something that's like, why would you be scared?
Why would you be scared to say that to your dad?
What I just said, because he just like, He doesn't ever. He's like he's just a very strange guy who like just doesn't like to talk about like anything that's like under the surface. Like he just likes to keep it strictly like he doesn't like to talk about his feelings.
Well, you're not asking him about his feelings.
Yeah, that's true.
Have you ever said that to your dad?
