If there's one thing we can all agree on, it's that nothing feels quite as good as a full night's sleep. When you sleep well, it sets the tone for the rest of your day. You wake up feeling refreshed and ready to go. It's almost like the world knows when you sleep well: your morning coffee hits just right, the sun shines just a little brighter, and you've got a little extra pep in your step.
Your friends and colleagues may notice, too, especially if good sleep is becoming a foreign concept for you. If it is, you're not alone - according to the CDC, people around the U.S. are in need of some serious zzzz's - more than 1 in 3 Americans aren't getting enough sleep. Perhaps even more shocking is that 40% of people fall asleep during the day once a month, according to the National Institutes of Health. Experts agree that most folks should get at least seven hours of sleep a night, but in reality, most Americans struggle to get five or six.
While some ultra-rich CEOs claim they only need a few hours of sleep a night, that's not true for most people. In fact, your body and brain will hate you if you're not getting enough shuteye. If you're feeling sluggish, unmotivated, snappy, achy, sick, or just down in the dumps, you may not be getting enough sleep. And it may not be your fault - that old, dilapidated innerspring mattress that you're sleeping on may be the true culprit.
Fortunately, Sleep King is here to help you get on the fast track to falling asleep with the ultimate comfort of MLILY mattresses in Fayetteville, AR.

Take a moment and think about all the different things that have happened in your life over the last decade. Maybe you graduated college or got the job of your dreams. Perhaps you got married or moved to a new home in a new state. But if you're like the average person, one thing remained the same: your mattress. It might be surprising to hear, but the average lifespan of a mattress is between seven and ten years.
Letting go of your old, worn-out mattress might be hard, especially if it's served you well over time. As with most products, however, nothing lasts forever. But how do you know when it's time to ditch your old bed and choose a new MLILY mattress in , AR? Here are just a few of the most common reasons that customers tell us when it comes to buying a new bed.
Is your mattress starting to smell less like roses and more like the dirty socks in your hamper? When your mattress gets smelly, it's most often a result of mold, fungi, and mildew buildup over time. There's not too much you can do to avoid this from happening, especially if you live in a humid climate. So, the next time you change your sheets, give your mattress a sniff. If it smells funky, it's time to upgrade.
If your mattress has a noticeable sag, it's a surefire sign that you need to get a new mattress. Mattresses sag because, over time, coils begin to weaken, and memory foam loses elasticity. If you lay down on your bed for a moment, get up, and your bed sags instead of returning to its original appearance, your mattress is nearing the end of its life.
Waking up in pain is basically the an thesis of what a mattress is supposed to do. Due to wear and tear over time, even the best mattresses lose their ability to support your body. If you've been waking up with dull aches and pains in your hips, lower back, or shoulders, it's a red flag. Finding a comfortable, supportive mattress like an MLILY Fusion Lux is of utmost importance.
Constantly moving side-to-side or switching positions in the middle of the night is a great way to get your partner angry. It's also a big sign that you need to consider buying a new mattress. Like the supportiveness of our mattresses, general comfortability also lessens with usage and time. Here's the truth: You shouldn't need to toss and turn to get comfortable in your bed. If you are, your mattress has probably declined in quality and needs replacing. You shouldn't ever have to put your sleep health on the line for an uncomfortable mattress.
It might sound obvious, but the #1 reason why people choose to buy a new mattress is to get better sleep. Sleep, in and of itself, is a bit of a mystery - somehow, our bodies just know when it's time to clock out for the day and go to sleep. But if you've been sleeping on a poor quality or dilapidated mattress for long enough, you might have become used to the feeling of lackluster sleep. If that sounds like you, we're here to tell you that you're missing out.
Getting a great night's rest is one of life's little pleasures, but according to experts, it's also much more than that. If you swear by limiting your sleep to be more "productive," you may be doing yourself a disservice.
When you don't get enough sleep on a regular basis, it can lead to serious heart issues like high blood pressure and even heart attacks. Why? Because poor sleep causes your body to release cortisol. This stress hormone causes your heart to work harder. That's great in some situations, but long stretches of poor sleep are quite bad for your heart. Like other parts of your body, your heart needs to rest in order to function correctly.
Getting a cold is never fun. But if it feels like someone slapped your head with an anvil when you get the sniffles, you may need better sleep. When you get great sleep, the proteins and immune cells in your body have a better chance of fighting off things like the common cold and flu. Your immune system also helps mitigate symptoms like runny noses, congestion, headaches, and more. Without the right sleep, symptoms from colds and cases of flu will be much worse.
Do you roll out of bed and feel like Eeyore from Winnie the Pooh? You're probably not getting great sleep. When you sleep well, you wake up in the morning feeling refreshed and ready to attack the day. Your energy levels are high, making life's little annoyances more manageable. And when you're not annoyed, you're typically not angry. When you're not angry, you're only a half-step away from being happy. So, put on our PJs and get to bed early on an MLILY mattress in , AR. Your friends and family will thank you!
Earlier, we mentioned how some people purposely lose sleep so that they can be more productive. On the surface, that makes some sense since you have more hours in the day to dedicate to work. However, burning the midnight oil again and again is a bad idea. Eventually, you'll start making mistakes that an afternoon pot of coffee won't fix. Instead of cutting your sleep short, try getting more. Studies show that great sleep is linked to higher cognitive function and improved concentration. If you're not purposely limiting your sleep, it's time to ditch that old mattress and swing by Sleep King.
Getting eight or more hours of sleep doesn't mean you're going to lose lbs. overnight. But getting better sleep can seriously help with your diet or weight loss goals. When you get poor sleep, your body creates a hormone called ghrelin that causes you to get hungry. It also lowers the amounts of leptin in your body, which is a hormone that lets you know you're full. With great sleep, these hormones remain balanced, so you don't wake up finding for a sugary bowl of Captain Crunch.
If you're sick of mediocre sleep and want to take on tomorrow with a fresh mind, better sleep begins with MLILY mattresses in Fayetteville AR. When you trust our mattress store in Fayetteville for MLILY mattresses, you're already taking the first steps towards better sleeping habits.
From cold-to-the-touch mattresses like the Fusion Luxe to popular hybrid bed options like the Fusion Supreme Hybrid Mattress, Sleep King has got you covered.

Although the board approved the added minutes, PPC groups are required to vote to immediately implement the policy or it will not go through.
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Fayetteville Public Schools Board of Education unanimously approved to amend the 2023-2024 school year by adding 35 minutes to the school day starting Feb. 5.
Due to the Arkansas LEARNS Act, which took effect in July 2023, and several snow days, school districts have been contemplating how to make up snow days.
LEARNS says a public school district must be open for on-site, in-person instruction for at least 178 days, or 1068 hours to get funding from the state for teachers' salaries.
At the Fayetteville Public Schools (FPS) board meeting on Jan. 25, Claire Wilkinson, the superintendent's general counsel, presented a revised school calendar that would add 35 minutes to the school day for grades 5 through 12. Elementary schools will not be impacted by this change.
Before the board meeting last Friday, Wilkinson worked with both the Classified and Certified Personnel Policies Committees (PPC) in order to decide which calendar plan to implement for the remainder of the school year.
The two options included:
According to Wilkinson, a survey was sent to the PPC members where 88.9% voted for the 35-minute option. They had also requested to swap a day off in April for the eclipse on April 8.
President’s Day and Eclipse Day will now serve as backup inclement weather days in case the district needs to make up additional snow days.
New dismissal times:
Certified PPC member Andrew Young said the groups decided it was the best option because it gives “teachers time back in the classroom before these big state tests and big AP exams are coming.”
Young also said many people have already started making summer plans because make-up days haven't been an issue in the last three years.
"We had COVID and then we had AMI for two years and so really haven't had to deal with this a whole lot,” Young said.
Board President Nika Waitsman raised concerns about students who have prior after-school commitments, like jobs and extracurriculars.
“There are certainly those where it might create a hardship, so what we will be directing our building leaders is to work with those employees and families that have unique situations and we will find a solution,” Superintendent John Mulford said.
Following the board's approval of the amended calendar, the PPC groups are required to vote for an immediate implementation due to a change in personnel policy mid-year.
While obtaining approval from the PPC groups, they will also need to submit a waiver to ask the state to waive the law that requires Fayetteville schools to have a calendar in place by July 1.
The commissioner told Mulford that the school doesn't have to wait for the waiver to go through with the state in order to implement the change on Feb. 5.
“As long as you got your PPC blessing, the state will approve it,” Mulford said.
If the PPC members don’t vote for immediate implementation, the policy won’t go into effect until July 1 and would be irrelevant to the current school year.
“If the PPC groups do not vote to immediately implement it, then we would be staying with our current calendar and we would be using the makeup days plus going into that next week in June,” Wilkinson said.

The U.S. Postal Service last week announced it is considering moving some mail processing operations from its Northwest Arkansas facility in Fayetteville to the Oklahoma City distribution center.
A public meeting is scheduled for 3 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 6 at the Fayetteville Public Library to share the results of a recent review of the proposal and take feedback from the community.

The announcement did not give any details about the proposal, but said a summary of the review would be posted on the USPS website at least one week prior to the public meeting.
The Northwest Arkansas Processing & Distribution Center is located on City Lake Road in Fayetteville. It employs about 180 people.
Last week’s announcement stated that the Fayetteville facility would remain open and be “modernized” as a local processing center.
A spokesperson said the review that led to the proposed consolidation was initiated as part of an effort to update the aging postal network and achieve a longterm goal of 95% on-time delivery nationwide.
A recent study found that only 87.7% of First-Class mail was delivered on time from Oct. 1 to Nov. 17, which represents a decrease of 3.3% from the fiscal fourth quarter.
That report, however, stated that performance was negatively affected from the insourcing of several surface transfer centers, but that those issues have since been resolved. The decline was also partially the result of a two-week shutdown of a facility in St. Louis where decontamination was necessary after a hazardous mercury leak from an illegally shipped package, the report showed.
The Postal Service in 2011 moved some operations from the Harrison processing center to the Fayetteville facility due to a decline in mail volume. That decision changed service to Little Rock and eastern Arkansas from overnight to 2-day, and required reassignment of some employees from Harrison to Fayetteville, according to the USPS.
An online survey is available for public comment through Dec. 21 at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/mpfr-northwest-arkansas.

The board approved $4.6 million for the purchase of land on E. Joyce Blvd. that will put a third junior high in the school district.
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — On Tuesday, March 12, the Fayetteville School Board approved the purchase of land on East Joyce Boulevard where the district will build a third junior high.
This will be the first junior high the district has built in over 50 years.
The land buy passed 7-0 and Fayetteville Superintendent John Mulford said that he can’t wait to get this project started.
"It's a great feeling knowing that we're ready to move forward with the project. So, a lot of things have been on hold at this point. But we got all the pieces in place, and we'll be ready to move right away. We told our community that if we go in this direction, that it would be implemented on August 27. And we want to make sure that we stick with that," Mulford said.
While the district looked at many different locations to build this new school, Mulford said he believes this is the best spot.
"I still firmly believe that, of the options available to us, this is the best site. It's still relatively close to most of the families that live in this zone, and after conducting the traffic study and soil study, we don't believe there to be any concerns with the property," Mulford said.
As Northwest Arkansas continues to grow, Mulford says this school will set the area up for future success.
"It sets us up for the long haul says Northwest Arkansas and Fayetteville continue to grow. Adding a third junior high and pure feeder pattern model takes some pressure off of our existing buildings and allows us to grow and absorb more students as our community grows," Mulford said.
The district's plan is to get this project going right away.
"So now that it's approved, or we've already selected an architect, they're going to get started on design right away. We anticipate that design process to be between nine and 12 months. So hopefully around this time next year, we'll be putting the project out to bid and breaking ground in the spring of 2025 which then will allow us to have the building complete for the August 2027/28 school year," Mulford explained.
The land will cost $4.6 million to purchase but the district plans to meet with the City of Fayetteville with hopes the city can help out. However, as of now, the district is planning to pay for all of it.

FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS - Sometimes the rich just continue to get richer, and Fayetteville High School is a prime example.
Just over two months since winning their sixth state football championship in the past 16 years, the Bulldogs are already eyeing a repeat next season, with two big additions recently to their already stacked roster.
Garyt Odom, a 3-star quarterback prospect, who played his junior year in Las Vegas, and 4-star linebacker, Parker Meese, who was IMG Academy in Florida, will both be donning the Purple Dog digs when the 2024 season rolls around.
The 6-foot-1, 170-pound Odom, son of former Arkansas defensive coordinator and current Nevada-Las Vegas head coach Barry Odom, played his sophomore season at Shiloh Christian in Springdale, before joining his dad in Vegas last season.
The speedy dual-threat passed for 523 yards and 7 touchdowns at Faith Lutheran High School in 2023, while rushing for 643 yards and 8 TDs. He led the Crusaders (9-4) to a conference title and three playoff victories.
“This is just a better situation for being closer to some of my family, and also giving me the opportunity to graduate early.” Odom said of coming to Fayetteville. “This is where I consider home, and Arkansas has the best fans of any fanbase we’ve ever been a part of. Everyone has always been really welcoming to us.”
The family still owns a home locally, and Fayetteville allows him to be closer to grandparents and other family members in eastern Oklahoma and southern Missouri.
“It’s a new system -- and I’ve been through two others in my high school career -- but this one seems to fit my game really well,” Odom said. “I feel like these coaches can make me the best version of me.”
Odom has already committed to playing for his dad at UNLV.
The 6-foot-2, 220-pound Meese is also a UNLV commit and met Odom two years ago while on a visit to the University of Arkansas. The two struck up a friendship, so when Meese was looking to depart IMG after last season, he decided to join Odom at Fayetteville.
“Parker and I are great friends, so I told him I was going to Fayetteville, and I thought it would be an easy transition for him,” Odom said. “He came on a visit while my dad was here, and he loved it. He was looking for a place to go to, so it lined up perfectly.”
Meese grew up in Plano, Texas, and spent his sophomore season at Parish Episcopal School in Frisco – where he racked up 70 tackles, including and 5.5 behind the line of scrimmage -- before heading to IMG last season.
He received more than 30 offers, including Arkansas, Oregon, Texas A&M, Penn State, Michigan, Auburn, before committing to the Rebels.
Now, it’s just a matter of blending in with the new environment and new teammates for the duo, who both enrolled at Fayetteville this semester.
“I think any time you can get two kids like that, number one, what they’ve got to do is really come in here and be a part of our team – a lot of these other guys have been here for a while,” Bulldogs head coach Casey Dick said. “But so far, they’ve been accepted well and they have done really well during this transitional period.
“Here at Fayetteville, we have kids that move in and out all the time. It’s kind of a melting pot. But it’s been awesome to kind of step back and watch them interact and grow closer every day.”
Odom will be in a four-way battle for the starting nod to replace Gatorade State Player of the Year Drake Lindsey, competing with senior Landon Holzhauer, junior Dorien Bowers and sophomore Cruz Coatney.
“We feel fortunate that we have four guys that can go out there and take some snaps for us, with a lot of experience,” Dick said. “You look at each one of those kids and they all have some unique tools about them.
“Garyt has the ability to run and throw the ball, something we haven’t had in the past, as far as that dual-threat at quarterback. He’s just got to continue building that trust and continuity with his teammates.”
Meese looks to fall in line with a number of other great linebackers out of Fayetteville through the years, such as Dre Greenlaw, who will be starting for the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LVIII on Sunday.
“Obviously, Parker can play football really, really well,” said Dick. “That group of linebackers has been really good for us over the years, and he should be one of the next ones. Along with all the other kids we’ve got coming back.”
The objective remains the same for the Bulldogs and their two newest faces – winning that final game in Little Rock again next December.
Odom made no bones about his plans.
“We’re going to win the state championship again,” he said.

The vision for where the next generation of students will go to school in Fayetteville and what new facilities are needed became a little more clear this month.
Woodland Junior High could be relocated to east Fayetteville, the new John L. Colbert middle school could become a junior high school, and Ramay Junior High could also eventually be moved under a new plan endorsed by Fayetteville Superintendent John Mulford.

Mulford made his recommendation to the School Board on a plan that would redraw school attendance boundaries to help alleviate overcrowding at McNair Middle School, as well as balance demographics within the district, and allow students to stay together from elementary school through high school.
In a board workshop held before the regular board meeting on Thursday, Mulford endorsed his choice of one of five proposals he presented in December. The five redrawn boundary options were developed with help from consulting firm, MGT.
Mulford said he favors the scenario previously dubbed “B2,” and the board agreed to continue to pursue that proposal.
The new plan would create what Mulford described as a “feeder pattern” designed to keep students together as they moved through the district from elementary school and beyond.
Under the “B2” scenario, students from Leverett, Washington, Root and Happy Hollow would move through middle school, junior high, and high school together, while students from Holcomb would be similarly grouped with Owl Creek students. Students from Butterfield, Asbell and Vandergriff would make up the third group.
Holcomb/Owl Creek elementary students would go to Holt Middle School, and the newly built John L. Colbert middle school would be converted into a junior high to serve these students.
Students going to Leverett, Washington, Root and Happy Hollow elementary schools would go to a new middle school to be established in the building currently home to Woodland Junior High, and on to Ramay for junior high school. Ramay would eventually be relocated in a future phase to a new building more centrally located, Mulford said.
Butterfield, Asbell and Vandergriff students would go to McNair for Middle School, and a relocated Woodland Junior High that would need to be built somewhere else.
Estimated enrollment under the B2 proposal would have 577 students in the McNair/Woodland group, 610 in the new middle school/Ramay group, and 462 in the Holt/Colbert group.
The district conducted focus groups of teachers and staff, as well as of PTO presidents from each school in the district, and the B2 proposal was also favored by those groups, according to data presented at the board meeting Thursday.
The board last month authorized Mulford to pursue land for the relocated Woodland Junior High, and that led to property at 3134 E. Joyce Blvd. near the intersection of Crossover Road.
Mulford said the district made an offer of $4.6 million on the 28-acre property that was accepted by the sellers, contingent on final board approval. The deal has a 90-day due diligence period, he said, and soil studies and other testing on the property is currently underway.
The district looked at about a half dozen properties before selecting the land on Joyce Boulevard.
The construction of the new Woodland Junior High, as well as work to convert John L. Colbert to a junior high school would be paid for through second-lien bonds which would not require a public vote for a millage increase, though voters could eventually need to approve an extension of the existing bonds by about eight years through 2058 depending on final costs for the projects and other factors.
The School Board is expected to make a final decision on the plan at their regularly scheduled meeting in March before the due diligence period on the current contract expires.
“Our hope is on Feb. 29 we would have the board vote on approving the purchase of this property,” Mulford said.
If approved, construction on the new Woodland Junior High would start later this year, and could be open in time for the 2027-28 school year.
