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

Living Room Photos/Dream Home Ideas

It's lucky that we still have a few years before starting construction on our dream home. Okay, so this is "lucky" in the sense that, in the meantime, we are stuck listening to our trashy neighbors blast their car stereos so loudly that our walls shake. I hope their overstressed cars explode with them inside. Whoops! That got a bit off topic, didn't it? Anyhoo, I mean we are lucky because we have time to plan exactly what kind of house we want to build. I've been saving photos for years! Below are some of my favorite living rooms that I've come across. If anyone knows the site the photos originate from, please let me know so I can add a link. Just a few more years of dreaming. *Sigh*

Parents are Weird

Remember my Kids are Weird post from last week? It really always boils down to the parents, doesn't it? I got into an argument with a mom at work today. She was insisting that I schedule her daughter at 4pm and I was insisting that we save the after-school appointments for school-age children. It's hard for high schoolers to miss school for a dental check-up. The upset mother: Are you saying that my child's education isn't as important as a high schooler?? I would never say that. Oh, except for the fact that the patient who would be missing school is 18 MONTHS OLD ! Yes, lady, your daughter missing school is not as important as a high school student missing school. That is exactly what I am saying.

How to Clear Clutter (and BLOG HOP!)

I'm participating in BlogHer's Life Well Lived campaign and have been asked How do you organize paperwork both online and off? Hmmm... Online, I think Pinterest is a handy new way to keep track of things. Before this site came along, I relied heavily on bookmarks. The problem? Soooo many bookmarks! It's much easier to find the recipe I'm looking for or the website I'd seen earlier when there is a photo accompanying it. As for offline, I'm afraid you may be better off skipping my advice! This morning, I went to grab my Free Lunch at Tucano's birthday coupon. But, of course, it wasn't inside my restaurant coupons envelope. It wasn't inside my coupon tin at all. It wasn't even in my office. So much for that organization strategy! There are more Life Well Lived tips here and you can even enter the Life Well Lived Sweepstakes . And then you will surely learn how to organize your coupons in a way that lets you actually find the crazy things
