The problem of bad backs is a widespread one in the world. What is this due to; I don’t know. One theory is that our beds that we commonly use were not designed with much of a thought towards spinal health. Luckily there is now a thing called the memory foam mattress topper which can cure this problem. The earlier you get started on it, the better. A memory foam mattress pad like this will cost a bit of money but will probably pay off in less money spent towards pain medication as one gets older. That’s how I look at it anyway. Beyond that there is the priceless night’s sleep it will give you. You may also want to look into a latex mattress topper. This is equally valid and will protect against allergies to some degree. I am so glad we live in a society that values research and design and a free market. Our backs need it!

It’s in the middle of the summer for those of us here in the nothern hemisphere, and it’s been pretty hot lately.  Unfortunately, our place does not have air conditioning built in, so I’ve been looking at different ways to keep the house cool.  My first thought was fans, since they are nice and cheap.  However, fans often aren’t enough to keep the place really cool.  Installing an evaporative cooler was another option, but our covenant doesn’t allow them.

Instead, we’ve decided to go with a portable room air conditioner.  These are great since we don’t really need to keep the entire house cool, just the rooms we are using most often.  That way, we can keep cool and save money at the same time.  Of course, to really save money, it is crucial to select a model that is very energy efficient.  For this, check into the “Energy Star” label.
