Busy, busy, busy...

I've gotten used to not leaving the house before 11am. I know, I'm spoiled.  But today I had lots to do.  Jerry's birthday is today.  I had presents to buy and a card to get.  I ventured off to Wal-mart because they were supposed to have what I was looking for there.  I kinda knew they wouldn't but what the heck.  I haven't been to Wal-mart in months.  I think the last time I was in one was in Lansing with my Dad.  Sure enough, they didn't have what I was looking for.  

The Avenue's mall did though.  A quick stop to Ritz Camera shop and I found what I was looking for.  I didn't expect to really spend the amount of money that I did.  But I really wanted him to have it.  I noticed that there were some new stores in the mall but didn't do any other shopping.  Sticker shock was setting in.  I decided that maybe I was hungry so I called Jerry and we decided to meet for lunch.   I'm terrible about keeping surprises so I ended up giving him the flash right away.  He was SO excited.  :)  I did good!

Next week I start my training and I'm getting anxious.  I still need to go grocery shopping so that Jerry has dinners while I'm at work.  Hmm...I need new clothes too.

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

Image
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!
