What my Boss said

Post by caffeinatedcfo » Thu Apr 18, 2013 11:13 am

So today I was in my weekly meeting with my boss (he knows about my diagnosis) and he says to me, "so the last two weeks you've been cranking out some significant projects and I can't seem to keep up with you ... what's your secret?!" I replied - SLEEP!

And for those of you that aren't familiar with my posts, I've been struggling with mask/leak issues the past three weeks of (newbie) CPAP. Wait until I start consistently sleeping through the night!!!

I can't seem to keep up with you
Time for boss to get a CPAP?

Yes. He is very happy to hear it's helping. He knows how frustrated I've been with my docs.

Good for you! It is so hard to look back on the person that we know we are capable of being....and wondering if we will be capable human beings again....you know you are well on your way! Congratulations.

Congrats. I had a few of my employees ask me what I was doing differently, during my first week

I found it really hard to keep my energy level contained to a non irritating level to others as I felt really great at first.

Really really glad to hear it is working out better for you.

Hey, now that you cranked up your production and when you get your mask leaks tamed, the world will be your Oyster!

Great news.

Rememer to save some strength for getting better on a steady basis. The stress curve is usually seen as a half circle where, if you go over the half way point, your actual production goes down.

I am very glad you are happy. Simply do not over do.

Have a lot of fun!!

Debjo,
That is one of the best lines ever, and a question many of us constantly ask ourselves.

I like my ResMed AirFit F10 FFM - reasonably low leaks for my ASV therapy. I'm currently using a PR S1 AutoSV 960P Advanced. I also keep a ResMed S9 Adapt as backup. I use a heated Hibernite hose. Still rockin' with Win 7 by using GWX to stop Win 10.
