She'll have to get used to it. She called & messaged everyone we know hoping to find someone to agree that she should have a box spring if she wanted one. They all told her the same thing the salesman & I did, so she just got angrier & angrier. She's a clinically diagnosed narcissist. This is how that works. She had 4 days by herself to figure it out. She has not apologized.
The technology has changed so much in the last few years! It's wonderful. If your mattress is older than 8 - 10 years I would definatly encourage you to take Patty & go try on mattresses! We both got Simmons Beautyrest at The Mattress Firm. I got the 13.5" thick Vines full size. Mom chose the 11.5" Ashville II twin size. Both are for back/side sleepers. Hers has individual spring pockets & is a medium support. Mine is more connected & firmer support. They came with free head only adjustable bases. I upgraded my base to head & foot adjustable & paying the difference in price. Mine was on sale for the price of a twin. Hers was Labor Day sale. We chose 1 year financing, but could have had up to 6 years. It's awesome to not wake up with achy back, hips, & shoulders! Mom told one of my sister's that she loves hers. I know I love mine.
Her's is my rare antique brass bed circa 1920's. Rare because it's a twin. With the box springs it made it a very high bed. But no, not cutting the legs down. The adjustable base doesn't sit on the bed rails it sits between them. It eliminstes about 6+ inches of height. Mom can almost walk up to it & just sit on it. Before she had to use a stool to get her .... up there to sit on it. She loves that fancy bed, tho, so she was happy to use the stool. She's only 5" tall now. I'm 5 9 & 1/2 so it's too low for me to get up from easily but it was fine for me when it was higher. My bed was my Grandparents 4 poster, circa 1928. I get in like Patty does but just slide over the side & am standing.
That's about all we had was a rain event along with some gusts of wind that were surprisingly not frightening at all. Actually, we were ready for our hurricane party, and it petered out. We still ate all those carby snacks sitting outside watching the rain.....and the scale reflects our indulgences.....Time to test da generator. Hopefully, it'll just need an oil change and sum petrol. Personally, I think all we'll have is a rain event. BUT, da ground is water logged here now, thanx to our recent soakings. Thankfully we are in da only non-flooding area in west Bradenton.
Da sooner Dorian turns north, da better! We'll see in several days...
Oh yea, they are so sweet........2 of them frolicked on our lawn this morning, and left abruptly....must have heard something to make them scamper off.Steve didn't take a very good pic...look closely...
Don't you wonder what was going on in his imagination that made that a thing to do? It's hilarious! [emoji1787][emoji1787][emoji1787][emoji1787]
