That being said, the last three nights of sleep that I have gotten have been terrible. Just terrible. And the primary culprit to said terrible sleep....my lovely husband's lack of use of his CPAP machine. I am not exaggerating when I say that he has the LOUDEST snore in the world & it is consistent...no breaks, which would give me a chance to fall back asleep. And this morning I felt like I was gonna go off the deep end!
Well about a year ago some things popped up that gave us kind of a scare, so ultimately he ended up going through a sleep study & getting a CPAP. This isn't the CPAP of your father or grandfather's day. This baby is small & quiet (I reckon it sounds like a wave machine). And it changed the way we live & sleep! I compared it to a miracle in our marriage after the first couple nights. Have someone in your life who snores like a bear or can fall asleep literally anywhere at any given time? They may want to check out the CPAP/sleep study; it'll change your lives!
So here's the dilemma...when Isaac doesn't sleep with the CPAP on he snores & snores & snores...and I can't sleep, thus becoming a major B-face. I am not exactly the easiest/nicest person when I'm really tired and am trying to sleep with no avail. It got bad this morning, but lucky me I married one of the most patient & understanding men out there. Despite my outburst of pure exhaustion, Isaac didn't get upset with me at all...let me go back to sleep while he got up & started getting ready and simply hugged & kissed me when he left. Oy...talk about guilty conscience!
How do you handle interruptions to your sleeping patterns?!

Thankful for a quiet office this afternoon....I need a slight break from people
Why isn't he using his CPAP anymore? I am sorry you haven't been sleeping well. My husband doesn't really snore that bad, but I have a hard time sleeping when he does.
ReplyDeleteI am a horribly light sleeper. The dog moving around at night wakes me up. Very rarely do I get a full nights' sleep (I think God is preparing me for when we have children).
I really have no suggestions. Lack of sleep is horrible. Caffeine and good healthy eating is the only thing that helps me stay normal.
Well he has a hard time using it when he's sick - and he's just starting to get over his cold. But I think tonight it's back at it! Otherwise we may start having major issues!
ReplyDeleteI love your thoughts though - I already started apologizing to Isaac for what I may be like when we have kids!
And I definitely had 2 cups of coffee this morning & heading out for a run after work, hoping to tucker myself out, so I just pass out! :)
