I'm getting a new bed today. One of those "what's your sleep number?" beds that are adjustable via the use of air. I gave Oldest Daughter the other bed...the one that Mary and I picked out when we moved into this home three years ago.
I'd rather not sleep in it any more. I think it may be partly to blame for my shoulder problems because after a week in New Orleans, it was starting to feel better. The bed in NO was awesome so I wonder if that was the cause? But, the other reason is that I don't have the heart to sleep in it any more. It just doesn't feel right now that she's not there to share it with me.
But I am keeping the headboard/footboard for use with the new bed.
After I get my new bed I'll be out shopping for new sheets and a blanket. I let OD keep the other set because it was made specifically to fit the 21" mattress.
Yesterday was Son's 21st birthday and today Mary would have been 45. The start of a new phase in his life and the ghost of her life ended too soon surround me today.
