We got a new bed!

I'm blogging about my bed??????

 ... it must be a big deal! :-)

I've been waking up so sore, lately. My neck, my shoulders, my lower back.  I wake up tired and achy almost every night.  With Vienna waking up in the middle of the night sometimes, too, my night's sleep was severely compromised.

What have we been sleeping on???  When we got married, we had Dwight's old bed ... from when he was growing up!  OK, folks -- we're talking a 28-30-year-old bed!

Here it is - the poor dilapidated thing:

Dwight and his parting moments with his bed of almost 30 years ...

It's OK babe, let it go ...

Off to Sleep Country for a new bed, thanks to Burnell & Paula and their gracious belated wedding gift.  They offered to buy it back in 2003, but Dwight was content with our old bed at the time.  "A bed is a bed!"  True, and we have been grateful.  However, now 10 years later, it was time to upgrade. :-)

Vienna being entertained by her Grandparents while Mama tested out the beds.  

Apparently there's some art to figuring out if a certain bed is right for you or not.  Do I believe this sales jargon?  I don't know ... My hips and shoulders lined up on some but not on others.  I couldn't tell, really.

Finally, we chose this awesome bed, below.

The new bed has arrived!!!!  Out with the old and in with the new.

This is an exciting day.

So exciting, I just had to tell ya'll 'bout it. :-)
