Wednesday and Exercises and then Birthday Treats

I slept wonderfully last night! I woke up once when the storm started but then went right back to sleep and slept until 5:00, my usual "get up" time.

That was quite a storm! There is even flooding in Independence. I sleep like a log when it rains and storms.

I have dressed and fed myself and Missy and cleaned out her litter box. Once again, she mostly missed the litter box and wet on the mat under her litter box so I have two mats in the laundry.

I will go on to exercise class this morning but  I will  just have to be careful not to hurt my rotater cuff.

More later...I want to see how much rain we got. Independence got 12 inches according to Tulsa TV and they have flooding..

I went on to exercise class this morning and while there, Leslie, my daughter, called me. She wanted me to meet her at Messenger's Furniture at noon and see  if we could find a box springs and mattress there. She and John, her husband, will buy it for me. I have had a hard time sleeping with my old mattress and box springs and my rotater cuff is constantly hurting when I lie on my right side. When Lie on my left side, my ear bleeds along the rim.  I can't breathe when I lie on my back. I have allergies. We found one that looks and feels wonderful. It's a Sealy. I will give it a try tonight  and hope Missy can get up on it from the footstool like she did the old one. This one is quite a bit taller though.

They delivered it about 4:20. Here it is.

I can hardly wait to go to bed to try it out.

Here's where she is now.

My camera has a foggy lens, I notice. But here is her favorite place to lie.

About 6:30, I took my bath and Missy and I watched Perry Mason shows on Amazon Prime until afte r9:00, when we went on to bed. She had a little trouble getting up on this taller bed.

I love the tall look of your bed! So pretty.

I'm so glad that you were able to get a comfortable new mattress. We recently got a new bed and it was too tall for me to launch myself up onto it because of my knee problems. Luckily the bed has adjustable legs with sections. The only problem was that my husband was unable to hold each corner of the bed up while taking out a section of the leg, and I'm still about useless right now with lifting, even bending over pulls on my surgery knee. Then my husband had an excellent idea. He went out and got the jack from the car trunk, and lifted each bed corner with it and adjusted the legs. I wonder why so many of the mattresses are so thick these days, I guess it's something to do with the foam they use now, or maybe even just the fashion.

I hope you and your sweet, but naughty, kitty catch a lot of really comfortable zzzzz's on your new bed.
