Debra, your description of those whole body jerks are what used to

make my dh so mad because they kept him awake! Funny, now that we

don't sleep in the same bed, I don't remember having any of those!

Nor has he said anything about it happening the few times we have

slept in a king size bed while travelling. But those jerks were just

as painful for me as they were annoying for dh. I am sometimes

amazed that they no longer occur but think it could be a combination

of the meds I take.

And as a note to you about washing the car, I heard or read something

this week about how using a car wash is better for the environment

than washing the car/vehicle yourself. Not an environmentalist but I

did think it was a good excuse not to get out and do that job myself.

And the gas station we use most often gives a discount, so perhaps I

have to have my SUV filled (Horrorifed last night, $3.50 a gallon, dh

said was not that high when he had his little chevy truck filled

last!) but my suv does need a good cleaning!! And we are really

thinking about how much it will cost when we move over the next

several months!!! Sorry for this off topic subject, but I guess

everyone must be feeling this budget crunch.

Just guess I can be glad I am no longer working and filling vehicle

weekly!
