Amerisleep AS3 Reviews

  My Amerisleep AS3 Unboxing Video (Surprise, my voice is ridiculous!) If I can (just barely) do it, you can totally tackle a bed-in-a-box by yourself. Updated 10/15/22 Amerisleep's AS5 was recently featured as the 'Best Soft Mattress in a Box' by Good Housekeeping , with the panel of reviewers noting: Pressure relief for side sleepers Taller than other boxed mattresses Good customer service    Amerisleep Mattress Reviews  We've been happy Amerisleep customers since purchasing our first AS3 mattress more than 9 years ago. Now we also have an AS2 and an AS4 (the AS3 is still our favorite). Born with chronic insomnia  (even as a baby - my family insists I was a nightmare), the struggle to improve my sleep is my life. My husband, the overly-analytical mechanical engineer, was initially skeptical of a mail-order mattress, but he was quickly won over. 2012: Wine glass test, sans wine. I was fairly confident our brand-new mattress would pass with f

Another Flower Delivery Mystery?

Remember my Flower Delivery Mystery from a while back? Well, much to Sexy Nerd's horror, my secret admirer struck again, this time at my work! OH NO, Sexy Nerd! Somebody loves me. Coming home with a big bouquet of flowers was Sexy Nerd's worst nightmare. The good news? The flowers were actually from my boss. (Gotcha!) I did tell my "secret admirer" story to Sexy Nerd when I got home though, just to keep him on his toes. Come on, you know you would have too. My flowers also came with a card. A few weeks ago, I posted a comment on my Not "Baaad" Sundays Linky Party that my boss wanted me to get her website to the top of Google. Problem? I had no idea how to do that! Lots of online study and time later though, we are the #2 result. And a word of warning to result #1 - you're going down, biyotch! Scrambling for the top Google ranking requires hard work, determination, and lots of curse words. After learning that the flowers

This is Why I Love Blogging!

Tonight was just an average night until I checked my mail. Alyssa at My Husband's Watching TV had sent me a little goodie that her mom made. Cute stationary, Alyssa! Isn't it so cute? I love it! This is exactly my kind of Halloween decoration. However, there was something else about this that I liked even more: HA! Thank you, Alyssa! You've made my day :) *Don't get it? Read this candy post , then this dishwasher post (and laugh along with me!)

I'm Not a Clever Dish Washer Either

Remember my post, I'm Not a Clever Candy Bar Stasher ? You know, the one where I destroyed 300 mini candy bars, a broiler pan, (which, by the way, was not even mine. It belonged to the landlord) and nearly ruined the entire oven? Blog reader 'Stephanie in Suburbia' tried to make me feel better by writing: Did ya know you can't use Palmolive dish soap in the dishwasher? Wanna know how I found out? Yup, the hard way. Took two hours to sop up all the suds in my kitchen and I lived in paranoid fear for the week that I was going to get a call from the neighbor below me that their ceiling had mysteriously erupted in bubbles. Thanks for the dishwasher comment, Stephanie. Sadly though, I have made that mistake too. Even worse, it wasn't with my dishwasher or my apartment. I thought I'd be sweet and HELP a friend by surprising them with clean dishes! Bubbles EVERYWHERE? Oh yes! And before you think, You still helped by getting the floor nice and clean , no! The
