Also, how about Jennifer Connelly?

I was just started on CPAP in January. My wife no longer threatens to kill me for snoring all night long. No, seriously. I do feel better in the mornings. I think I sleep better because I am not waking myself up multiple times per night. The new CPAP machines are very quiet and simple. I would give it a shot.

Same boat here.
I even bought battery charger for Scout camping trips… total game changer.

Changed my mom's life. My grandfather (dad's side) also uses one. I've been needing to schedule a sleep study to get one. I have the same problem, feel awful every morning. Always tired. Sore throat from snoring. Sometimes get woken up because I'm choking, which is classic Sleep Apnea.

So yeah, it wouldn't hurt to at least try it and see the results. It could save your life and/or vastly improve your day to day life. You spend a third of your life sleeping. If you're sleeping like sh*t then the other 2/3rds are gonna feel like sh*t.

They do home sleep studies now. So easy.

I didn’t for the longest time because I didn’t want to go through the old ordeal of a sleep lab.

It’s changed my life. If you have a smartwatch or FitBit, they can give you an excellent idea of your sleep quality. My Fitbit tells me my O2 saturation while sleeping. I didn’t wear my CPAP one night (fell asleep on the couch). My oxygen saturation was way lower and I felt like crap…you don’t realize how bad it is until you get it corrected.
 
I tried an APAP for several months and didn't feel anymore refreshed (though they said my 'score' improved dramatically). Since, I've been experimenting with different devices such as iNAP2 and BLEEP. I believe you'll get different results based on your specific physiology. For me, the mask didn't work (I'm a mouth breather) and an APAP can adjust pressure at any change which impacts sleep. So, works well for many but not all. My search continues.

I got a chin strap to keep my mouth from hanging open. Works great.

A picture for some of us older Vol women fans to enjoy, since the male crowd like to throw out their pictures. Gotta do my part for the superior sex

Is that Ron Dunn aka Ron from Eagleton?

His lines were almost as good as the real Ron Swanson's.
 
The only thing dumb is you continuing to prop up their Florida win as some kind of achievement when that team was falling off the rails hardcore that year….why should I give a coach credit for easy scheduled wins and getting blown out in other games?

This post tells me all I need to know. Thanks for posting.
 
Rick Barnes is now 143-80 at UT and 5-2 against Cuonzo.

Cuonzo Martin is 138-113 since leaving UT, so Barnes has more wins in one less year. Barnes also has 3 more NCAAT wins.

Cuonzo sucks. He needed a play in game to make tourney with a team with final four potential. It took a petition to even give that team a reason to fight.
 
Hey, y’all! I’m sorry if you were worried about me with me not being on! @VOLSONLY stopped by the library today while I was trying to get a million books out of the book drop on my first day back at work. (He looked familiar so I kept going through all the kids I taught because they’re always coming around expecting me to know how they look grown up because they think I know everything. Then he mentioned my dad so I am thinking whose kid is this. Then he said Volnation, and the light came on because I really don’t know everything. 😂 I wanted to run and give him a hug, but I really didn’t have the energy.) He said y’all had been worried. I’m sorry! I have just had so much besides me going on. My dad also in the hospital. He will be 86 next week and has only went to the doctor in the last few years for high blood pressure and few times for anxiety. He is in shock that he is so weak still. My husband missed 3 weeks work with covid, worked a week and then missed last week with a stomach virus he picked up. Well, plus the sinus infection we had between the other virus (flu?) we had at the end of December. Then there’s our son and DIL divorcing every other week. She likes to send him to us. Anyway, I think I slept two weeks with the covid except when blowing my nose from the sinus infection. When we could get up I wanted to get to the doctor for an antibiotic. He had one here that he had not taken once when the doctor prescribed it. 🙄 But he got over his infection. Called my doctor and 7 to 10 days! So we went to an urgent care in Jasper. Before I could get my sob story out, she put the oxygen thing on my finger and ran out of the room. The doctor came in and said loudly, “We’re calling an ambulance! I don’t have the equipment here for this!” Granted my brain was not working well, but I asked if my husband could not just drive me right down the road to the ER? She got all hysterical and said we would have to sign all kinds of papers for her to let me leave there. I was like okay. So she went out and scared my husband to death. 🙄 So ambulance took me to Parkridge in Jasper so I could wait 8 hours to be transported to Chattanooga. Double pneumonia, and I had no idea because I have had trouble breathing since the blood clots in my lungs. The first day I talked to the doctor I told him I went in for a sinus infection. He said it doesn’t matter if your in China or Africa or wherever it is always a sinus infection. When being released, I brought up the sinus infection. He said that he wished he had known! LOL. I finally got an antibiotic!

I just have not been back on because I am not my normal sweet self. The doctor told me it could take months to get back to normal. So months to get back to my normal chronic fatigue self. Plus trying to deal with everything else. Frustrated with GA winning as bad as I hate AL. And with all the NIL and the player carousel. Didn’t want to read all the bad stuff right now. Anyone got some good news for me? Football or personal?

And, Volsonly, please come back when I am more myself! Usually people say I always smile and make them feel welcome wherever or whenever!
