Hey Happy People,

How’s stuff? I hope your day is going better than mine right now. Lord, I am soooo tired. I think I might have gotten four hours sleep total since last night. First night with the C-pap machine…not so good. I’m thinking I didn’t do it right or something. I have very curly ‘black girl” hair and it gets caught in the Velcro of the straps for the headgear for this thing. So I thought “hey, use a scarf to stop that from happening”. Well, it worked but maybe the fit wasn’t so good. I adjusted it as best I could and my headgear is wide width. Yep, my Mama was right, I got a big head. She said it would happen. Anyway, gonna have to come up with something else for tonight. I have a thinner scarf. I’ll try that. If that doesn’t do it then I might just have to let my hair get a little tangled. I need my sleep. I’m a hot mess without it.

Exercise today is recumbent bike. Karen and I were supposed to go walking, but she did allot of moving furniture yesterday and so her body is feeling the pain today. It’s probably best cause I’d probably fall on my face trying to walk today. I’ve got to get my bike braille labeled soon so I can start using the programmable settings instead of just on manual. Especially since this will probably be my main mode of aerobic exercise this winter. I did talk Karen into going to yoga on Tuesday. This is the last evening class there going to have before switching to afternoon classes. Great news because neither of us likes being out at night. She doesn’t like to drive at night and I’m usually just plain tired out by 8 p.m. and ready to wind down for the evening. What can I say, I’m a morning girl…early morning.

I also need to put in some housework this weekend. I finally got my washer, dryer, stove and dish washer braille labeled so no more waiting for someone to come and set those things for me in order to use them. Well just the washer and dryer anyway. I usually guesstimated when it came to the stove. Most stoves are pretty similar if they’re the basic type and nothing fancy is going on…you know…like digital stoves and all that. Dish washer was pretty easy too. I usually just used “hot start”. Now I can use "normal" too. I love apartment complexes, they keep it simple when it comes to appliances.

Okay, starting to babble. See, this is what happens when I don’t get enough sleep…no focus and lousy spelling. think i corrected this entry about three times already.

Peace, Love and joy to all.

Interesting about braille labels on appliances. Something the sighted never even think about. You face so many challenges with things that the rest of us just take for granted. Better luck with the CPAP tonight!

Thanx, HCB. I am getting better at getting it in when i'm roling solo. and i can't believe i'm actually learning to like doing my weight training routine with the free weights. I still get tired (read sleepy) afterwards, but it's actually starting to feel good when i'm doing it. Rhontique, my apartment manager said something similar to me when i approached them about labeling my appliances. she said, "wow, i never even considered that you'd need to do that." what's really interesting is that my sister, Karen, who's known me all my life sometimes doesn't think about these things either. not sure how i feel about that one, though.
