Over Worked and a Few Other Things.

We got the two bedrooms swapped around by the time the new bed arrived Friday.  'K' did most of it due to me still not being able to get much done due to my rib injury.  However I had to step in Thursday and Friday to move a few things.  One being taking down our old bed and moving it to the other room.  We set itup the next day to spit up the burden.  Today I am paying the price even though it wasn't that big of job.  

Part of the package of our new bed purchase included set up.  I can't tell you how much I am glad it did.  That bed is super heavy.  We got a bed with a mototized frame in order to raise the head.  Now that we are getting so much older we will be needing that.  And I have needed that already with my injury.

This bed is pretty cool.  It's a Smart Bed.  We can adjust the firmness and it keeps track of how you sleep and sends that info to an app on your phone.  It can tell when you wake up and are restless and when you get out of bed.  I asked if they installed cameras to be able to tell that.  They thought it funnier than it sounds here. And when you get out of bed it has a motion detector that turns on an LED light under the bed.  That light is really helpful in our super dark room.  It stays on until you get back in bed.  Oh and none of that is free.  It's a Sleep Number brand, it's what we had and moved to the other room.  There should be less adjustment to a new bed than there was last time.  First night wasn't what I had hoped for.

We met up at our favorite taco shop Saturday morning with an old friend that now lives in Amarillo.  Spent a couple hours catching up and getting to know her new husband.  It appears they are well matched.  She deserves it.  It was very emotional for her and 'K.'  It was a great visit.

I am back on duty at church.  I am not sure I remember if I mentioned what I do there every Sunday.  Suffice it to say, I am a 'Greeter.'  Standing and moving around for three hours amd opening doors for everyone can be hard for an old man with messed up ribs.  I have eased back into it gradually.  Last Sunday we had a young man or older teen riding a bicycle through our parking lot taking photos of the church and of our sign with times on it.  I got hyper alert and alerted the others due to all the attacks on churches, and a couple recently.  The way he was dressed, especially his 'head cover' and other things made my alarm bells go off.  I challenged him, he didn't answer and rode off a little faster.  I wasn't the only one that noticed.  Nothing we could really do since he broke no laws.  But that wasn't enough for one lady.  Me telling her we were aware didn't phase her.  She needed to tell everyone on the team what she saw and how creepy it was.  Who else she told I don't know.  Bothering our PD would not be fruitful.  We don't want to worry a lot of people needlessly but I can sympathise with her.   Needless to say I will be even more alert in the near future.
