Amerisleep Recover+ Duvet with Celliant

Looking for a mattress sale? A list of all available Amerisleep coupons is featured at the bottom of this post. Amerisleep Recover+ Duvet with Celliant SN and I have a new blanket, which I normally wouldn't bother to blog about, but this is no ordinary blanket. (Actually, it's technically a duvet, but isn't that just a fancy word for blanket?)(Google says it's not. I'm going to use it as a blanket anyway.) It is made with a Celliant fabric, just like our beloved Amerisleep mattresses, and has a Celliant filling. Amerisleep says their new duvet is like snuggling with a cloud, but I prefer to think of it as a big, toasty cinnamon bun. We've been using the new Amerisleep Recover+ Duvet for about 2 weeks and have had a love/hate relationship with it. LOVE: Surprisingly, through the magic of Celliant, the Recover+ Duvet actually calms my Restless Leg Syndrome. I know, this sounds crazy. A blanket that cures Restless Leg Syndrome? The science behind ...

Get the &%*# Outta Here, 2019

In addition to blogging about holiday gift ideas ( find here ),  I'm jumping on the end-of-year collage bandwagon. 2019 was a struggle. Although there were many good times, like traveling to  Australia  and San Antonio, adopting Olive , attending wine festivals , and even buying a '73 Corvette (which needs lots of work - ask me in 2020 if I'd still consider this a positive), the last few months have hit me hard with the sudden death of Pica *, my grandma passing away, and my best friend overdosing herself into a coma. In the midst of all this, my longtime coworker quit without notice. And it seems like everyone is having a baby, which shouldn't bother me but it does.  Ugh, change. *Pica and I were just sitting on the couch together. She got up, went to the next room, and died. I still can't believe it. I'm trying to stay optimistic about 2020. Hey, it's the roaring twenties! We have a trip to Washington, DC booked and plans to build a lake hous...

How to Buy Shoes

I have had my eye on the cutest pair of shoes . They have dogs on them! They're even marked down in a year-end sale. However, they are not in stock at any stores near me, so I'll have to trust that I'm ordering the correct size online. I also need to know they're high quality, authentic, and comfortable. (I'm old - my years of wearing painful shoes just to look pretty are long over!)  As fate would have it, I was recently contacted with a guest blog post about this exact topic - buying shoes online . If that's not a sign that I should buy these shoes, I don't know what is. Unless...it's a sign that I should not buy the shoes? I never much believed in that stuff anyway. How to Buy Shoes (And Be Happy With Your Purchase!) Knowing the Shoe Fits A footwear shopping experience varies from one individual to another. Some shoppers take the time to check out a pair of shoes thoroughly before checking out, while others pick theirs based on appearance, shoe size,...

Christmas Movie Trivia

Christmas Movie Trivia   We all get into the Christmas spirit (even my boss, who is Jewish), but no one takes it quite as far as my coworker. She encourages our patients to wear her musical hat, but with one rule - they must also dance. Even the most sullen teenagers join in! As profitable as running this blog is (ha ha), I have a "real job" working for the best Albuquerque pediatric dentist . Next month will mark 15 years with her - I was practically a baby when I started! I've been working on some fun holiday Facebook posts for our patients to enjoy, including trivia questions about their favorite Christmas movies.  I originally published everything at once and was disappointed when no one reacted or commented.  Then Facebook suggested again and again that these were such great posts that I should  pay to turn them into ads. Well no wonder none of our patients responded. Facebook hadn't allowed anyone to see my holiday posts! If that doesn't get your...
