I recently decided it was time for a new car. I have been driving my current vehicle, a Mercedes E350 for 5 years now. I have put 120,000 miles on the car and it has been an absolutely wonderful car. Suzanne’s car is getting long in the tooth too and I really don’t want to […]
Technology is Great – Until it Fails

Suzanne and I believed that we also preferred different style mattresses. The Sleep Number Bed seemed like a perfect fit. About four weeks ago, […]
