The Air Mattress Adventure

To start off with, a little update about Larry going into the Air Force:
He texted his recruiter, like he has done in the past, to find out if he had any new information. He got a text back...asking who he was.
Because THAT inspires confidence!
We thought it was hilarious. Especially after the night we had just had.

So, when we got to Arizona the first time, we got an air mattress (for various reasons...have you ever tried to cuddle on two twin mattresses? Someone ends up in the middle and eventually in a crack)
Pretty soon after we got the air mattress it started to deflate while we slept. We'd put press and seal wrap over the spot where it inflated and deflated to try to keep some of the air in at night. It helped for a little while, and then we moved into our own place and had an actual mattress to sleep on.
Now that we've come back and have been staying with Larry's mom for a few weeks, we've been back on the air mattress. And we've had the same problem.
Except worse.
We'd literally end up on the ground in the morning! Which, by the way, is killer on the neck!
Last night, we found the hole! The hole in the mattress that was making it deflate. We were so excited! Maybe we'd stop waking up on the floor every morning! So we put some duct tape over it and went to sleep. Well, about an hour later, we were completely on the ground! Somehow, patching the hole made the problem WORSE!
We got out the two twin mattresses again and put it under the air mattress so that, when it did deflate, at least we wouldn't be on the ground. It made sense at the time!
Poor Larry couldn't sleep till the air mattress deflated down to the twin.
And, for the record, two twins are not the same size as a queen!
Larry ended up in the crack between the twins anyway.
My poor husband. He puts up with so much!
We thought it was pretty funny, although that could be because of the sleep deprivation...
We did have an awful lot of fun laughing about all of it though!
Thankfully, we get a real mattress at the end of the week!
So, here's to Monday! I hope you all have a lovely one!
