Hey! Just saw this. Sorry for the delay.

I researched a ton of different ones including Sleep Number, and a bunch of others. Of course, 8 grand was a little out of my price range for a complete bed setup. We ended up getting this through Costco in split CA King. It will fit inside our current wooden bed frame, which will be nice.

We passed on the setup since Mrs. 2LZ wants to rearrange the entire bedroom. Can't just replace the bed, you know...... ;-)

A pair of running boards for my SILs(formerly mine)1952 Ford F2 pickup. I felt like I should have had on a mask and had some sort of weapon in my hand because I only gave twenty bucks for them.

They usually go for many many many Ben Franklins.

As if I didn't have enough projects already I bought an ancient Toro S-200 snow blower to fully rebuild and gift to my mom as she can't do it manually anymore. Still on the lookout for a proper two phase blower for heavier snowfall but this should suffice for a gas powered broom to clear way to the woodshed and such.

That brings back memories. Most of them not that good. I think that little 2 stroke is a Kawasaki and it's built better than the rest of the snow blower.

This is from Friday but the first item of the 3 arrived today. I ordered a 5 port USB charging station, as well as two battery chargers for my cameras. One for my Nikon D3200 DSLR and the other for my Nikon Coolpix AW110. Both come with two batteries and are both dual slot chargers. So i will have 3 batteries for both cameras for longer shoots.

BCG, gas block and gas tube, buffer and buffer spring, and handguard to finish my "leftover" gun. And AR built with all the parts I had leftover from my other 3 builds.

Bought a bunch of health care items. My new insurance supplement for Medicare gives me $75 per quarter that I get free at CVS. Wish I'd known about it a couple of months ago.
