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

Picaaaa!

In keeping with the tone of my blog, I will try to refrain from swearing in this post. &*#%!!! I'm home from my big adventure and am contemplating whether or not to break Pica's legs (To Readers: Of course I would never do this. To Pica: You're dead meat, you little punk!) I was walking her and Biscuit to the mailbox today. When we were almost there, Pica's leash detached from her harness. It just kinda slipped off and rested on top of her. I tried to act like nothing was wrong, hoping to inch close enough to Pica to pick her up. She bolted! She just ran and ran and ran. So what did I do? I ran and ran and ran too, faster than any person should ever run (and especially faster than I should ever run. Whew!) First I was dragging Biscuit behind me, then I used her harness to pull her up, bungee-style, like some kind of flying, daredevil chihuahua that will probably haunt her for the rest of her life. This made it easier to run but much more difficult to grab Pica

BLOG HOP and Fun with the Winners

Who Won the Best in Show Award?

The votes have been tallied (quick and easy, as Blogger does this for me) and a special award has been created for one talented blogger. What kind of blogger? A party animal! Not that kind of party animal, you sillies - my kind of party animal. The winning blogger recently went all out for her 1 year old's birthday. (Click the photo for a free pirate printable!) There was a ship to play inside. And a jaw-dropping treasure chest cake! It's best to heed the birthday girl's demands! Not impressed by pirates? Phooey to you! Still, perhaps you'll be tempted by another offering from the winning blogger. Delphinium Dollup Chocolate Cake Balls, anyone? Way to go, The Outlaw Mom ! I love the name of your blog. Thanks to everyone who linked up! For another chance at the Best in Show award, swing by LambAround tomorrow for another Not "Baaad" Sundays blog hop. Have a great night, my bloggy friends!

Feeling the Stress Melt Away

My Hot Ham and Cheese Crepes (and fun giveaway!) have been featured on TasteSpotting! (pink circle: proof that my computer really is sooo ridiculously slow) (purple circle: always looking for that next fabulous cruise deal - it has been over 13 months since I've been on a cruise ship!) This is the first photo that I've had accepted to TasteSpotting. I'm feeling pretty darn great about myself right now! On a side note, I was not feeling great at all before finding out this TasteSpotting news, courtesy of the dummies at the Target pharmacy. Shouldn't you have to have at least a little common sense to work at a pharmacy? Ooooh, I'm so ticked off at them right now. More to come.
