My wife and I had been living in a perpetual State of the ’80s… I think we were the last people on the face of the planet to own a waterbed. Yes… it didn’t even have foam inserts - it was totally a free-wave, bladder-type waterbed.
Until this past Friday…
We purchased a canopy bed that reminds me of the insides of Disney’s Wilderness Lodge, which we got on sale for less than $500, and, to put on that bed we purchased a mattress from a company called “Bed In A Box”. They sell only “memory foam,” or visco-elastic foam mattresses. The one we got was their PacBamboo-Plus, queen size, for less than $700 (including shipping), which has a bamboo-fabric cover, but is otherwise very similar to a $3,400 model sold by Tempur-Pedic.
It’s taking some getting used to. We’re talking going from a bed that was very soft, with no support, to a bed that feels like I’m sleeping on a slab, but has sufficient-enough give to be comfortable.
I’ll let Tracy tell you about the installation of the mattress, since she was the one who (against my suggestion) went ahead and did it.
Oh, gee… like I ever update my blog…
Trying to guilt me into it, or motivate me?

I’m trying to motivate you to post here, my love…
