I'm a little nervous to post this.....

Post by DottyG » Tue Mar 30, 2010 11:21 am

.....because I don't want to jinx myself for saying it out loud.

But, the last week or so, I've been wearing my mask all night. I haven't taken it off in the middle of the night. Not only that, but when I wake up (and would, formerly, throw it off) to the alarm and still am planning to doze a bit longer, I've gone ahead and left it on until I'm actually ready to really get out of bed for real.

Shhhhh.....don't tell the CPap gremlins that I've been doing this. I don't want them to realize that they've been slacking on their job of keeping me from using the treatment.

But, I had to tell someone.

I'm thinking I need a little reward for this. I'm trying to think of what I could get myself as a little "treat."

Dotty, I am sure I am very pleased for you in regard to your progress in an area that I won't mention because I know what it takes to get to this accomplishment in whatever area might be under discussion, even though I am sure it has nothing to do with anything that could be overheard by someone who might or might not be listening. Whew. I think I covered myself there.

Dear DottyG,

Yes, by all means reward yourself. A good book...a massage, etc. So glad to hear you are wearing your mask all night!

Warmly,

Jersey Girl

Can cpap fairies banish cpap gremlins? Apparently this is the case. Congrats.

Not saying anything about....anything, Dotty, but if there was anything to say or discuss, I'm sure congratulations would be in order.
