Hello everyone - Dieselgal here

Post by dieselgal » Tue Dec 09, 2008 1:14 pm

Hey everyone !
I have been missing for a while due to a death in the family and other issues. I have also been doing very well with my CPAP and it does seem that when things are going great we skip the board more often but isn't that the goal of everyone here?
I still have some sleep issues that really aren't SA related but doing pretty well all in all. I have been so out of the loop I don't even know if any great new masks have been created.
I intend to try to check in more often and I see many familiar people are still posting, so HOWDY from Dieselgal.

Howdy, DG.

Hey DG....
Very sorry for your loss!!!
Good to hear from you again -- check in once in a while
Some of the "missing regulars" are checking in lately -- wonder if it's the season.....We tend to think of friends and family this season.....

Take care
cheers
