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

Shabby Apple Giveaway & How to Save a Screen Shot

With exactly 300 entries, this seemed like a decision best left to Random.org. Appreciate it, because I started out with absolutely no idea how to save the image of the winning number, as proven by my very own screen shot search bar: Click the Image to Enlarge   I've saved images for my blog before, but have trouble every time. The clever thing to do would be to write down exactly how I saved it this time. Problem - I have no idea how I saved it! Capturing the image is simple enough, but where do I find the file after that? I've read that I should paste the screen shot into Paint but, another problem, I accidentally deleted Paint from my computer (then reinstalled the computer back to the factory settings, then somehow removed Paint again, along with all my card games!) Eventually, the above screen shot appeared on my desktop. Now, wasn't I writing this post for something other than to ramble on about screen shots? Oh yeah! The winner is PBJheart !! Congratulati

Feeling Saucy...and Ridiculous

Remember the other day, when I bought 40 boxes of pasta? I think we all knew this post was coming. To be fair, that jar on the right is already half empty. Aren't pantry (very important 'r' in there) photos fun? This is how I live. Messily. And with several of each item. Two unopened boxes of couscous. About a million cake mixes and chocolate puddings. Like a crazy person. I hadn't tried this brand before stocking up. What a relief that it was delicious! The looks you get when checking out with 13 glass jars of pasta sauce (over 20 pounds for those of you doing the math but, really, it's best not to do the math) are nothing compared to the inevitable looks of horror and disgust when returning those same jars.
