New Bed!

So, my husband and I spent the wonderful Labor Day weekend shopping for a new bed! Since this is a "technology and teaching blog" I'll tie it into that in a few seconds. But first....let me just say that shopping for a bed is the most relaxing shopping I've ever done! Seriously...all you do is lay down for a while and almost fall asleep =D We went to a ton of different stores! I think our favorite was I.M. Home in Provo. They were so nice and we didn't feel like we were being sold a bunch of garbage. We felt as if the sales people actually cared about us as a customer. It was so nice! I would recommend their place in a heartbeat!

So, I think we might buy a sleep number bed. We've always really liked them, and it was just as expensive as buying the first bed we fell in love with (which is a NexGel.) But, we can try the Sleep Number for 30 days. If we don't like it, they'll give us a full cash refund! Then, we can try the NexGel bed which is our second favorite. If that one doesn't work, our third favorite is in the same store and we can just switch out the bed for that one! So basically, we've got a huge game plan for this new bed!

Now for the technology and teaching part...There is some great technology out there for beds! I can't believe how many different options there are. And all of them have been "proven scientifically." So, our students are always bombarded with things that are "scientifically proven." How do they weed through all the garbage and choose the best things? Well, as older, more mature adults, we can give them tips on what we do! We can help them decide what is bogus and what is not! Pretty good idea, huh?

Anyways, I'll keep ya updated on what bed we choose! Here's to crossing our fingers for a good night's sleep! PS..If you know of a good bed, or have heard anything about Sleep Numbers...feel free to comment!
