Tonight is the 7th night on my APAP and I am a new woman!!

Post by 2girlsmom » Sun Nov 30, 2008 10:39 pm

I feel GREAT!!!! Unfortunately no more excuses now for undone housework.

Seriously, this APAP has made all the difference and I am so glad I have this forum... I have learned so much!

Off to go hook up to "the miracle worker"... and no that is not a pet name for the hubby, that is what I call my AutoSet.

Watch out for the eggs and tomatoes. I heard some people talking in the front row about it. They don't like this kind of zeal coming from newbies.

I've been following your posts from wondering about another sleep study to finally having success with you APAP!

This is great! I use an APAP and do very well but still find too many excuses not to do house work

Congrats!

Yip, yip, hurray!

But... uh... what's this weird thing you mentioned? Housework? Can't say I've ever heard of it... probably something dreadful though.

If I could draw, I'd draw a caricature of the APAP machine leaning against a doorway smoking a cigarette with a smirk on it's face.

Awesome! You and I joined around the same time. Good for you! I'm having a few issues that I think I can get resolved with an APAP too, but I am generally feeling lots better already. The advice and knowledge I found on this forum was invaluable. Anyway, congrats!

Thanks everyone!! I have accomplished so much more today than normal. I usually do the bare minimum required for survival. Today I actually dusted ceiling fans. I've done a mountain of laundry, taken both kids to storyhour at the library, etc. I am glad to feel better finally!

Excellent news!

Still scares me, though, when I hear talk about feeling so good it sends one into a housework frenzy.

Makes me keep my pressure turned down to an ever so slightly sub-therapeutic level.

Seriously, I'm glad to hear you're getting such good results, 2girlsmom! WTG!!
