A very wise move.
I probably should have thought of that. :cry:
Always one move behind. :?

captain obvious I still don't know the answer to my question. It could be something else going on, but It could still very well be that CPAP isn't working for me.
It could be that book you read telling you to take two-hour naps.

Why are you limiting nap lengths to 15 minutes? Naps are beneficial for up to 2 hours in duration.

Anecdotal, but Roger Federer takes a 2-hour mid-afternoon nap every day (+ 10 hours at night!) and he's one of the highest performing people on the planet.

For everyday people, taking sporadic naps longer than 30 minutes can disrupt nightly sleep and affect metabolism. But for athletes, who eat and exercise a ridiculous amount, napping can play a role in performance.--https://www.espn.com/blog/playbook/tech ... o-athletes

What are you trying to say! That I don't exert as much energy as a professional athlete? I will have you know that it is 14 steps from my recliner to the fridge! That also includes a flight of stairs with 4 steps!!! Geez! the athletes are in better shape syndrome is strong in this one! :wink:

Just wait until this one feels the ravages of time.
I would enumerate; but I would need a pill right afterward.

Ahh got it. So If you whine and gripe, naps are bad for you. If you are calm and collected, naps are good for you. Brilliant conclusion!

elavi001, I may not know Roger Federer. But what I can say is; elavi001, you are no Roger Federer.
