Although I did not write about it in advance, last night I had my third sleep study in six years, and in addition to that, the worst night’s sleep of my life…..needless to say I am betting the settings on my Bi-Pap machine go from “turbo-prop” to full “jet.”  It was a pretty uncomfortable time.  The pictures were taken at the request of BEN who wanted to know if these probes were going into my brain or whether they were actually taking my brain out!!

But like always, the people testing me were quite nice, wonderful in fact.  And I suppose that is what makes you feel bad about having such a rotten sleep.  Of course they had me trying to GO to sleep at half of my RX, so that took forever, and I felt as if I was suffocating.  But soon it was 5:00 am and over.  And I was heading home to shower and go to work…..although very very tired and grouchy!

And I only mentioned it to a few people as Amanda is always quite worried for people to know she may be here with Ben by herself.  I am pretty sure not too many bad guys read my blog, but what bothers me is that it doesn’t make me feel too good that she is not feeling secure.  I am pretty sure if someone broke in, in addition to dealing with a pretty protective dog, it would all probably end with me  saying, “but I only would have shot once,” which would probably really irritate a girl who grew up on a cattle ranch.

But regardless, she is safe and sound and the dog stayed asleep and no one got shot.  I however seem to be continuing my stupid sleep apnea issues.  But I will stay on top of it……for as you may already know, I had my stroke while already on an apnea machine……had I not had that help, perhaps I would not be writing this. I do not know, but I refuse to take the chance.  I, like most husbands, will most probably die at the hands of my wife……in good old traditional fashion!!!

Goodnight my friends and God Bless!
