04/05/16 - 4/2 was uneventful.  On 4/3, I had been told from Louie that he was getting together with a cousin that lived in the area and then on 4/4 we would plan lunch and a trip to the airport.  Louie's plans changed and he called me and wanted to know if we could do something in the afternoon and have an early dinner since he needed to be back at the hotel in the evening.  So I hurried, got cleaned up and picked him up at the hotel and we went to see "My Big Fat Greek Wedding II" and then we stopped off at Chili's for a hamburger.  It was nice to have the extra unplanned time with him.

4/4, Louie called to inform me that he would need to be at the airport around 1:00pm so I picked him up at 12:45pm since his hotel was not very far.

4/5 - today was very uneventful.  Went to have my blood pressure taken and it was finally 120/70!!  Maybe the C-Pap will help get my blood pressure down and off some meds.  That would be great. I have had some difficulty that last two nights since I have sinus congestion and I found it very hard to breathe thru the mask when one is all stuffed up.  Last night I learned if I stay in one position, the fluid will drift over to one nostril and then let me breathe thru the other nostril.  As I look back at this post, I gave more information than necessary!!

Oh, Lena, I have been so busy for months and months, I haven't kept up with what you are doing. But, I just did so and see that you are trying to use a C-Pap. I tried several years ago and did it for six months and it taught me how to breath more efficiently; however, I just could not deal with the long term use of that thing. But, now I am having trouble again and might have to go back on it. I hope not, because I really did not deal well with it. I could not tolerate it and would wake after four hours each night and have to rip the thing off of me. Hope you do better with it. I have a few friends who have been wearing their's for years. Anyway, Lena dear, hope you are doing well and enjoying life. Just wanted to do a quick catch up with you. Anyway, love you and wish you all the best.
