With it light out so early and the weather so nice, I enjoy the quiet of early morning. The War Dept. sleeps in till almost 8am.

I have been sleeping in my recliner for 4 years to help keep my legs elevated to help reduce swelling. Ones my foot is healed up from my surgery and I am back wearing a regular shoe on that foot, I plan on trying to sleep in a bed again. We need to replace our mattress and when we do that, we plan on getting an adjustable base so I can raise my legs up.

I never could sleep overnight in the recliner...I'm a side sleeper...can't sleep on my back. The recliner works pretty well for naps though.

I normally start on my back but end up on my side. When I was heavier, it got to be very uncomfortable to sleep on my side. It is better now, but eventually puts some strain on my knees and makes it uncomfortable.

Just about healed from the bone spur removal. There was a very large depression in my heel that has taken time to fill in. It is down to a spot that maybe an eighth inch by a half inch that needs to finish closing.
