bed, standard not too firm, not too soft, flat on my back, with pillows under knees, ok, so long as husband doesn't sleep next to me. when he was away a lot one month, my upper back and neck started feeling a lot better, realized that his weight was causing the bed (new and expensive) to sag just barely toward the middle and my body was subconsciously fighting that and the upper back/neck on the left side that is all messed up was in constant spasm because of it. i miss sleeping with him, and thus, one of these days, we may try a temperpedic bed.

very thin feather pillow essential for the neck!

don't stand in line. go to grocery store when no one else is there. husband does most of the other errands.

most essential piece of "furniture", my swopper chair, worth every penny!
