9 hours of family fun....

Well, the GA Christmas if over. We left our house at 10:15am this morning and got home around 7:30pm. 2 1/2 hours in a car to get to Nashville, GA. Well, actually outside Nashville. I don't think I've ever been to the "city". Three hours of visiting with people I see once a year and have only know for ten years, and then another 2 1/2 hours back home. There are times I wish we lived closer. Would be nice to have relatives to pal around with. Although I don't have much in common with them. I guess family..that's what we have in common. I do have to say that one of the presents was really fun. They made family "team" shirts. It has a big initial and the last name on the front and then "your" name across the back with where you rank in the family. Their "rank" means when you came into the family. Jerry was ..umm..14 because he is the second oldest grandchild. I am 39 because it wasn't until 1996 that I offically became part of the family. *shrug* kinda cool.

Jerry has a couple days of vacation this week. Means I get to bug him during the day. This is a good thing. I've been really chatty lately.

BSG Comes to an end?!

I am a HUGE fan of the new Battlestar Galatica (BSG). Sad to hear that they are coming to an end next year. Does it mean they get to Earth? Are the Cylons defeated? Or do they find a peaceful way to co-exist with the Cylons? OR...are they going to leave it in cliff hangers for future movies? Thank goodness for DVD's so that I can always get my BSG fix!

Independence Day!

On July 4, 1776, the Second Continental Congress unanimously adopted the Declaration of Independence. When reading the text it's difficult not to see how history repeats itself. We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed, by their CREATOR, with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed, that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its Foundation on such Principles, and organizing its Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate, that Governments long established, should not be changed for light and transient Causes; and accordingly all Experience hath s...

Hi-Tech Bed

So our Select Comfort Bed arrived today. So far so good. Although I think we are losing air (it's not staying at 100 after I fill). Not sure though. Tonight will be the real test. I think my sleep number is 35. When trying it out both in the store and at home that is where I'm not feeling any pressure on my hips or shoulders. Jerry thinks his number is around there too. I'm really hoping this will help with Jerry's back, shoulder, neck pains. He is so much better but he occasionally gets flare ups. No fun Oh yea...and the controller is Wireless. We can be gadget whores in our sleep too!
