A vital key to good relationships is learning to be flexible and care about

one another. My hubby and I have a dual control electric blanket and a dual

control electric mattress pad so we can control our own envirinment

individually. If I need the fan on in the summer he turns on his blanket for

a while, or puts on an extra one. He understands that he can control his

environment but that I am controlled by forces that I can not change. He has

the choice, I don't, so he is very considerate about my CMT issues. I make

sure he has the control in other ways.

In a couple of months we will have been married 40 years so we must be doing

something right. (It really doesn't seem that long!)

Becca here--

I use a cpap now. And I go back and forth between using a bubble mask and

using a nasal mask. BUT come summer time when it is hot... I HAVE to have

enough air blowing on my face to keep it from sweating!! This is high

priority because otherwise I sweat inside the mask and that is so irritating

and the same for the nasal one.... totally not comfy to sweat! AND this year

is the first for my boyfriend and I, so we have not had to worry yet....

NORMALLY in the warm weather, I have my airconditioner on in my bedroom and

It is this the ARCTIC in there --BRRRR!!!! Well he is always freezing--

and HATES airconditioning!! SO--- Lord only knows how we will work this

out????

At the VERY least the fan on my face is a must..... BOY -- this does not

help make a night of romance does it????

JUST A FUNNY NOTE!!!! --- We watch a movie sometimes on the weekend and I'll

fall asleep....next thing I hear is --- " put your mask on..... " SO sweetly

asked---- As I will be snoring like a freight train running next to him!!!!!

SSSOOOOO ROMANTIC!!!

LOL!!!!

I have to laugh at it otherwise I would be mortally embarrassed!!!

Thanks

Becca
