I remember falling out of bed once when I was young. At the time I was so afraid of the dark. My mom used to make our beds with hospital corners. I fell out and got my foot caught in the hospital corner and thought some monster had me and screamed until I was rescued! LOL Laughing

I was always falling out of bed when i was young too. When my 1st marriage split I lived alone for quite a few years and I started sleep walking. I got up one morning and the back door was wide open and I thought someone had broken in but I must have been in the garden! Then another morning there was toilet roll (tissue) thrown all over the bathroom!

Sol has a continental quilt so it doesn't tuck in. He doesn't wake up when he falls but I keep listening now!

Maybe you should get a bedrail that tucks under the mattress. It might help some. How tiring to be half conscious all night. Hope the day is easy on you!

Hi Diana!

Thanks Cathy!

Keep meaning to say to Sue that the one postcard from Lake Tahoe reminded me that we nearly got married there but then we chose Oahu!

No - we just thought the brochure for Lake Tahoe looked fab! We started off getting married in Gretna and everyone wanted to come, then changed our minds to the Caribbean, then Lake Tahoe and finally Hawaii where everyone decided it was too far. Sounds mean but we just wanted to be on our own when we got married!

We went to LA which I wasn't keen on, Oahu where we got married in front of a waterfall in a hotel garden in Waikiki and then we went to San Franscico on the way home.

Oh how exciting. I'm sure a wedding in Hawaii was unforgettable.

You must make it to Tahoe one day though, it is lovely up there, and just a hop, skip and a jump from San Francisco.....oh, and me      .

My boyfriend is waiting in California for business reasons and has decided to take advantage of the time to drive to Reno and then to Lake Tahoe for a couple of days....without me. Yell LOL!  He was thinking of picking up a tent and sleeping out under the stars around Lake Tahoe.  I told him to call me when it's over to let me know that bears hadn't got to friendly.Laughing

It would be lovely to go there Sue - and I would definitely love to meet you. We tend to holiday in Britain at the moment but one day....

We have plans to return for our 25th Wedding Anniversary to Hawaii (God willing) with our friends from Cheltenham who we met there. They were the witnesses at our wedding (they were on honeymoon). It seemed so far away when we said it and we are already over half way there.

Diana - what a shame you missed out on that trip. Frown - wouldn't fancy the camping though!
