Lie down and let said steroid stuff drain up into sinuses.........Secaris.....on a Q-tip......'wayyyyy up there......Now....read for a while, making sure the humidifier doesn't take any holidays.......at last....the mask.......good ol' 431......yawn...settles the mask......a couple of deep breaths to start the machine......Ahhhhh.......lights out............DOGGONITDOG!!!!!!!!YOUWANTWHAT??????????out???????Oh for rat's sake, why didn't you do that half an hour ago?

Gidgie,
Ha, I thought only my dog did that. I don't do the steroid thing (thankfully, after 2 sinus surgeries in my twenties, my nose works good), but I have a three year old who likes to ask me questions after I tape my mouth shut...
Thanks for the laugh!

Sleep well,
Tash

My 11-year-old son does the same thing. Intentionally! Even though he can usually understand my answers by the intonation of my muted, closed-mouth replies, he feigns confusion. I finally give up, remove the tape and start to answer him, at which point he invariably leaves my room in a fit of laughter. He got Mom to fall for it again! Image

Oh, I don't have proof, but I am thinking my daughter does it intentionally also
