Sleep Study
Jun. 21st, 2023 04:44 pmLast night I finally had the in-house sleep study done!

Getting ready! There were so many things to hook on to me that it took like 45 minutes just to get ready haha (I got there around 10)

So many wires!! After the assistant hooked everything up she had me lay down in bed and she checked on her computer if everything was working properly, which it was. She showed me the call button in case I needed anything (like to use the bathroom), then left me for the night. You don't have to go to sleep right away, so I read a little before turning out the lights (there's also a TV if you want to do that too). I didn't really sleep the greatest (I was too wired. ;) Haha), but hopefully they got good enough data. She woke me up around 6, unhooked everything from me, and said I could go whenever I was ready. I called mom and because she lives SUPER close to the Sleep Center, she was there in a few minutes. We both went back to sleep when we got back to her house LOL, mornings are not our thing. :P The assistant said I should get the results back within a week..so happy I finally got that done lol
I've been working three hours the days I've been at work this week, and while it's more tiring, I definitely get a LOT more done. There are so many boxes and stuff it doesn't look like I did anything though LOL. Denise is just thankful for whatever I get done, it's less stress and work for her..it's nice to be valued. :P I'm also staying the night at my apartment..making slow steps in getting my life back, at least!
Oh no, the Castner Glacier ice arch collapsed on Sunday, blocking the entrance to the cave! So sad! The people hiking around the arch were very lucky not to get caught in it! Because you have to pay to read the article on the News-Miner site, ( here is is )
17 – Eat Your Vegetables Day: Do you love veggies? Do you have favourites? Do you have a favourite veggie recipe -- either main meal or side dish? Will you share it? They're alright..zucchini is pretty good, and green beans and broccoli aren't too bad either. They're good as a side dish with butter!
18 – International Panic Day: Contrary to what it sounds like, this is a day dedicated to reducing panic and stress in your daily life, not celebrating it! How to you go about reducing the stresses, anxiety and yes, panic, in your life? Taking Clonazepam and Prozac haha (it might be starting to help now, hopefully!!), talking to mom or my counselor, etc
19 – Watch Day: Do you still wear a watch (assuming you ever did wear one)? Is it just a regular time telling watch, or is a smartwatch or fitness/health device that also tells you the time? Yeah, just a regular watch..I don't need my watch to be that fancy haha
20 – World Productivity Day: What did you do today (or are you planning to do) that was particularly productive? Mom and I went to the store and then found three geocaches!
21 – World Music Day: How important is music in your life? Do you play any musical instruments, or are you part of a choir or other vocal group? Have you ever been in a band (rock or school or other)? I love music, it can be calming, energizing, nostalgic..it kinda makes driving less tedious too. No and no, but I was in choir for a little bit in elementary school, even though I'm terrible at singing LOL
