For those people who know me, the above statement is something new to them. I'm usually a real gabfest, but I don't have a whole heck of a lot to comment on today. I think it's probably due to my allergies/cold/sinuses (take your pick, I can't ever seem to tell the difference).
I have sleep apnea & am supposed to be sleeping with a CPAP, but I'm having trouble getting used to sleeping with something stuck up my nose. Last night I just skipped it all together since I was already having trouble breathing. It's frustrating when you can't sleep through the night. My usual habit is to go into the living room @ about 10 pm (when hubby goes to bed, cause he can't sleep with the TV on & that's the way I go to sleep), stay there till about 11 when I get sleepy, go to be for about an hour, get back up for 30 minutes to an hour, go back to bed & sleep for a couple of hours, wake up when Maggie, my miniature dachshund, jumps off the bed & decides she needs to go do her business, then it's back to bed until 5 am. Man, I'm exhausted just reading that! I did actually notice over the weekend that, when I did sleep with my CPAP on, I felt rested, even with the about sleeping schedule. I know, most of you don't care about my sleeping habits, but it makes me feel better writing about it. Besides, I'm not putting a gun to your head to make you read this, now am I?! Unless your my hubby, of course...:-)

Wow! I understand that sleeping cycle. I am an insominiac and I don't sleep much either. Ernie goes to bed so early that it kills me to try to go to bed with him.
So anyway... I hope you are able to sleep tonight.
I am going to church tonight our bible study is on Angels. I can't wait to get there. Our pastor is such a good teacher!
Well Talk to you soon.
The CPAP is probably the single most unused piece of medical equipment there is. Most of the ones sold eventually go unused. A pity, really, because they can actually save your life.
There's some possibility that a better-fitting mask can make you more comfortable. You were fitted by a certified respiratory therapist, weren't you? If not, see if you can get that done. It should help.
