    Default What's Happening In Your Life?

    I exercised my rarely used moderator powers to close the previous thread due to its length. So let's carry on here.

    I don't actually post here often because I lead a very quiet life but at the moment we're going through the process of finding out which high school my daughter will attend from next year.

    OK... off you go!

    Hope your eyes are doing better now, Nancy. Well I got the CPAP and the first night went OK. BUT last night was terrible, don't know what I did wrong but I didn't sleep worth a darn. If tonight doesn't go better I will give them a call and see if they can tell me what the problem is. The up side is when I wake up in the morning my allergies don't have my nose all stopped up.
    AZ- It will take some time to get fully used to sleeping with your Cpap. It may just be your mask isnt fitting well and it's leaking or, if you use oxygen or have a humidifier, it may need adjustment. Give it some time, you'll get it soon enough

    Thanks - they are! I might even be able to put in a contact lens today!

    Awful! I hope you're able to sleep better soon.

    FP - good luck finding the right high school for Rosalind! I can't believe she's old enough to worry about that already!

    It took me a few days and a different mask when I was first using my CPAP. Definitely go back to the company you got the CPAP from and talk to them. I know mine allowed me to change masks at first free of charge so that I could find the kind that worked best for me (nasal pillow as opposed to the more common over the nose cup style). And like you, one of the best "side effects" of my CPAP has been a clear head in the mornings.

    Sounds like these CPAPs aren't as bad as some make them out to be, as long as you can find the right one for you. Hope you can AZ.

    Soda, be careful with that lens!

    FP, I know you contributed just for the sake of closing the other thread, but I appreciate hearing about your life. It makes me feel like I know you a little better. How old is Rosiland now?

    Aww, congratulations great auntie Willie! And welcome to the world Ava!

    Wow, you do have a big family. I have four currently (my brother's daughter has two and his son has two with one on the way!) None on Hubby's side.
