Septum in 2020s

I figured out exactly what’s causing my snoring and sleep apnea and it has nothing to do with my weight or mouth structure. Research confirmed my suspicions too. It’s the collapsed septum that the ENT said I had. First, I caught myself snoring with my mouth shut, and usually, your mouth is open when you snore. Secondly, I thought of how I’ve been having more and more trouble breathing out of my nose and having to sleep with a nose strip. Remembering what the doctor said, I realized that the septum could also be deviated as well as collapsed. Also, it can lead to loud snoring AND sleep apnea. Fortunately, I haven’t had any nosebleeds but I do have postnasal drip at times which is another symptom. It’s fixable which is great but the negative is that it may need surgery and I don’t know if that’s covered by my insurance. In the US, our medical decisions are rarely up to us in the end or so it seems.

Haven’t stuck any tennis balls to my back yet but I figured I would do that when I start getting backed up in sleep and really need to catch up.

Yesterday turned out to be a pretty good day. We went to CVS and I totally forgot to get my quarterly credit, lol, but at least I got some Merlot. He wanted to use the ATM there to transfer some of his “blood” money as we call it from donating blood and plasma.

After that, we went to Burger King since it had been a month.

I was working on the survey site and was given a $10 discount off a site called ThredUp that sells used clothes. As long as it’s not underwear or bathing suits and their not stained or torn, I’ve never had a problem with used clothes. So I decided what the hell after finding an absolutely gorgeous tie-dye hoodie. It was $12 and when you factored in tax and shipping, it only cost me $8. The pale pink hoodie I have is okay but starting to get a little old. It’s still in good condition but I’ve had it since 2016 and it’s time for something new. I got it when we came to Florida that year.

The news is still full of the same old stupid delusional bullshit. It’s really scary just how many control freaks are out there that just have to run the world. I still don’t understand for the life of me how anyone in their right mind can consider abortion murder. It’s like comparing a seed and a tree. A seed is not a tree, hence not murder.
