  • Sleep!

    It's been over 100 degrees here for a couple weeks, and our little AC unit can't keep up. It's still at least 89 in the house. I haven't been able to get more than 3 hours of sleep a night in weeks! Well, not anymore...

    We're getting ready to go get a second AC unit for the bedroom (where it's 5-10 degrees hotter than the rest of the house) and then my phone rings this morning and it's my buddy asking me if I want his king size Sleep Number bed (worth about $2,500) for FREE! Hells yeah! AC and a new bed? Movin on up. Lol. I wish it was bedtime already...

      Update:
      Got the second AC in the bedroom yesterday (it's about two feet from my side of the bed) and the new sleep number matress we got is a California king! Shit, that thing is huge! Me, the wife, both kids and the dog could probably sleep on that thing! Lol I actually woke up sore today, because I didn't move an inch all night! I slept straight through. I haven't slept that good in years, not even the first night I got my BiPAP machine.

        Two things I will never skimp money on. Making sure my A/C is working and in good condition (being from Texas this is a must) and a really good bed.

        Hands down

            Hell, I think it's been hotter here in WI than it has been down by you lately. Shit is insane!

                  I had to go to my general practitioner to get a referral to a neurologist. Then the neurologist sent me for the sleep study. It all depends on your insurance though.

                      Good luck with it. If you are suffering from sleep apnea, I feel for you dude. It's miserable. Until I got my machine, I didn't get 3 hours of sleep a night for many many years. According to my sleep study I was having over 90 apnea events per hour. Which in my case meant I was waking up because I wasn't breathing 1 1/2 times every minute! Fuuuuckkk.

                        I am on a CPAP machine now. I went for my sleep study and was waking up 43 times an hour on average. I sleep sound as anything now. The mask is cumbersome and hard to get use to though.

                              It took me about a week to get use to the mask. I'm a mouth breather so I ha to get the full face mask instead of the nice little nose piece one. My only issue is that my beard gets caught in the straps and buckles! Lol.
