Ask Santa for a recliner!

Well, I decided I needed a chair I've wanted for three years. I found an iJoy massage recliner floor model on sale for 100.00 less than the usual price. I can't wait to get it. (I didn't even realize it reclined until a few days ago.) I don't know how well it will be for after surgery but one of the things I'm worried about is my shoulders getting all whacked out by sleeping on my back a lot. I figured this would be a great treat to myself as well as necessary. I have such trouble with my shoulders and, to me, this is nearly as good as a real massage, available 24/7. It seemed like too big of a present for myself but then my mom said she'd toss in some money for my Christmas present and I found out I had more money in a savings account then I thought.
My sister is thinking of coming for the first week to help me out, which would be great. It will be another thing to tempt her with. My insrance even came through with better coverage. Im thinking that I'm really supposed to have this done.
