Lights Out

Monday, February 1st, 2010

Welcome back!

Well, the thunder and lightning in our area had some fun. We didn’t have any fun.

It started out with just some of the apartments inour area losing their electric. Then when the power company showed up, they had to cut all of the power to all of the units in order to safely correct the outage.

Well, evidently the lightning zapped the wires and the transformer box had to be reconnected. It was 5 AM when they were finally able to get things going again. Since I have severe sleep apnea, I CANNOT go to sleep without my breathing machines. 2 of them. So, just as I was thinking about going to bed - NOPE#&*_#@$%_)&.

The next day I was so tired that I slept most of the day to make up the difference. I once fell asleep without the machines. I was in the hospital, they had me hooked up to heart moniters. The next thing that I knew, I hear CODE BLUE with my room number. One of the nurses was talking to me trying to get me to wake up. When I did, she told me that I had scared them and please do not go to sleep without the machines.

That was eye opening. Evidently my heart stopped. So, power out = no sleep. Humph

Snoring

Thursday, July 30th, 2009

How often do people talk about snoring? I don’t know, but i guess that i am one of them.

When we lived in Arkansas, we lived in mobile homes in two different places. I remember when one of the places had the homes about 20 feet apart from each other.

One day my husband and I were awakened at about 7 in the morning. My sister was pounding on the side of the home and telling us to turn over. Evidently our snoring had awakened her and her husband.

This was before we were told that we both had sleep apnea. I hadn’t realized that we were so loud that we could be heard, let alone wake people up, too. :)
