I awoke this morning gasping for air because I was dreaming I was drowning. Is it possible to hold your breath in your sleep?

I am grateful for IKEA.

| Stephen begins the build, with all the bits and pieces laid out according to the directions |

| What? am I supposed to do now? |
 |
| Almost done, Boss! |

| Yes, we bungee'd the tv to the top. CATS. |

I was asked to maybe "sub" for a friend as an AD for a one-day, low-budget gig next week. I both hope to get the job, because reasons, and hope NOT to get it, because getting it will mean that my friend's dad died.

I am grateful to have been in NC long enough for Stephen to inherit this chest from his uncle and the blankets (hand-crocheted by his Grandma).

We're still "moving in" but we're HOME!
The reason I don't get much sleep during my worst vertigo episodes is that I have vertigo in my dreams, too. It's exhausting. Yes, you can hold your breath in your sleep. I've awakened choking on air before. It may just be an aging thing. I'm not really sure about that.
ReplyDeleteThat chest and blanket are quite beautiful. Congrats on having a husband who actually reads and follows the printed directions. Those creatures are rare indeed! The bungee cords are especially decorative. Nice touch. ;-)
LOL. He had asked me to help him build, mainly, I think, because he knows that I love shit like that. But the instructions had very few words for the reader, primarily pictures of a little man getting crushed by the little box he would try to use as a ladder without anchors ("X"), so I helped him by "supervising."
ReplyDeleteThe very first day we owned that tv, one of the cats knocked it to the ground, and Cocoa likes to stretch to reflective surfaces and scratch, so we have to place it very specifically AND bungee it. You know, reasons (a.k.a. CATS).
Yay you are 'home'! And I am laughing at the tv bungee!
ReplyDeleteNecessity is the mother of invention.
DeleteYay is right. We are definitely HOME.
My other half holds his breath so much when he sleeps, it scares me. It is actually a sleep disorder, but I would have to google the name!
ReplyDeleteSleep Apnea is when your airways get blocked regularly during sleep (by things like your tongue, I guess), so you gasp for air and end up waking multiple times, thereby disrupting your own sleep and that of your sleep partner. It's a medical thing that can be fixed, and if your Canadian Man "holds his breath" frequently, then he should probably be checked out for Sleep Apnea. What I experienced was just a dream. I've not done it before, and I hope never to do it again.
DeleteGet your man checked out, and Good Luck!
