Morgan, Rog, and I rearranged the LR this morning which also entailed sweeping out a lot of dust and pet hair which had accumulated under the sofa, etc. The layout has been bugging me for ages. I love the way it turned out! I can look out there, from my desk and see a nice, cosy, welcoming space where before it just looked like a hodgepodge and wasn't useful as anything but a room for the sofa/dog bed.:-) I kept wondering, as I looked through old pictures of previous houses, even this one, and wondering what happened to my "look" which really made my home look like my home. I guess I was on hold for several years because of health. well, now, I am back!:-)

SRS, thanks for asking, I am getting better sleep, but I am not using the mask. I went back to the nose "pillow" and just put tape on my mouth. As long as I don't breath through my mouth the docs are happy...they call it being "compliant." LOL...I tried putting on a chin strap and couldn't get it off quickly enough. I see the specialist again in late March. We'll see what the bloodwork and the chip from the bipap machine say, but Rog, Morgan, and I all notice a difference. It's good.

So, we also went to KMart. Do you know one cannot buy a single bed sheet alone? All they had were sets. I wanted to get a king size flat sheet to use as a bottom sheet. When I trained in hospital they never used fitted sheets. Since we have a select-comfort type bed, the deep fitted sheets we have don't stay taut unless we keep the bed full of air, so they are always slipping and bunching up. I think with a flat sheet I could eliminate most of the problem. I'll do some looking online.

Morgan was with us for 7.5 hours. What fun! We bought him a magic set complete with hat, wand, rabbits etc. He must've spent 2-3 hours trying out each trick and showing us his Amazing Powers.**bg** We also had a discussion about the art of M.C. Escher, whom he already knew about due to a great art teacher. And, while we were in the ca,r he explained to me about how things may look motionless, but were really in motion because of the rotation of the earth. I asked him why the people don't under don't fall off. He looked at me and said, "Really? You're really asking me that?! Then he grinned, and proceeded to tell me about the three laws of physics, gravity of course being the first he mentioned. Pretty kewl, kid. I am so proud of him.

Tonight he called to tell me he baked his first batch of muffins all by himself, except for his parents putting them in and out of the over. Two batches, on chocolate chip and one blueberry, said to taste as good as when his mom makes them. I don't like that they spend so much time on their computers playing WOW, imo, but they are doing some things right with him...esp. letting him spend as much time as possible over here.:-)

Tomorrow we go to the health food store to stock up on whole food plant based goods, do dishes, finish up some laundry, and take the afternoon off, mostly. Monday is a school holiday. I may have Morgan if his dad has work that day. Even if he doesn't, he'll still probably come over for a bit. I've got a manipulation appt. next week and a dental cleaning. Busy week, but good stuff.
