Well - it's been a while since my last post. (As I was reminded by a fellow blogger who still has 2005 on the bottom of her page!)
I've taken some time to track down reasons for my increasingly lethargic trek through life. After an overnight sleep study I was confirmed to have Sleep Apnea. It's a condition that causes you to just about stop breathing through the night. So, your brain (my other problem according to my wife.) wakes you up to start sucking in some fresh air. In my case, I was waking up 77 times an hour. When did I sleep???? No wonder I always felt tired and had no energy.
They put me on a little device called a CPAP. It forces air down your throat, keeping it open for regular breathing. It's kind of the Air Traffic Controller of the body. I haven't been on it too long, but, the difference it quite amazing. Heck, I might even mow my lawn this year... well let's not get carried away. Maybe I'll start with small steps, like taking out the trash.
I might even get posting more regularly... I won't hold my BREATH!
