Re: Nikken experience anyone?

In 2000, I had some back surgery and with that I was determined to be in the most comfortable, not hot mattress. My hubby and I splurged on a solid Latex Mattress and we LOVE it! I wish you luck with whatever you choose.

Re: My new approach - feedback requested

Thanks to Pugsey, I take the same medication as Nanwilson and it has made all the difference in the world for my restorative sleep!

This storm has surpassed Irene as far as the rain, but for us in Virginia Beach it is not near as bad as Isabel was for us. The wind field is so broad that it ha...

Re: OT: Sandy

Well, I can tell you that Sandy is very slow moving here in Virginia Beach. The winds here are not too bad, but they are expected to get worse. A bit more inland in Norfolk, they have gotten 10 inches of rain in the past three hours and the roads that usually flood (downtown} are already flooded. Mo...
