The snoring partner

I used to snore BAD!!! I would be so nervous about falling asleep because it's really embarrassing sometimes. However, after my tonsillectomy, I've been told that I no longer snore. That's not the reason I had the surgery, but I guess snoring was one of the side affects I was experiencing from the chronic tonsilitis.

yeah... but I DO! i typically have to wake him up to turn over...

he normally ends up snoring if he either eats to late at night or has gained some extra weight or if he's really really tired....i just usually turn him over cuz sleeping in another bed just ain't acceptable except for when it's nights at a time and i'm cranky! haha

luckily, it's been a good long while since he pulled the "stop breathing" thing on me..he'd stop breathing and i'd wake up without even the slightest alarm going off or anything...

haven't figured out how to fix the snoring problem yet though cuz sometimes i just can't stand it..but it doesn't really happen that often....

i'm such a light sleeper that if you walked up the steps and there was even one creak, i'd normally wake right up.

doug says i snore but i never hear myself and can only tell that i've been snoring if my throat is sore or if i wake myself up...i wish i was a heavier sleeper...

my dad unforunately, would snore the roof off the house! i wonder if he still does now that he lost all of that weight....

You can try some of my tactics I mentioned above. Tried and tested :nana2:
 
I used to vibrate the windows I snored soo loud !! When I was younger and still living at home, my mom would say there was a snoring contest between me, my dad and the dog. She would win some nights. I hardly ever snore now, I use a CPAP for sleep apnea.
My ex girlfriend would just elbow me and tell me to roll over. No harm no foul really. BUT she would grind her teeth. Nothing worse on the face of the earth then a teeth grinder. That would make me give her a nudge and tell her that she was grinding her teeth.

Back when I was an EMT, we had a bell that would ring certain ways for our station and for what equipment was needed (engine, ladder, rescue) So you got "programed" to listen for you bell series to ring and then get up and grab your dispatch sheet. At a BBQ, on of the ladder guys feel asleep in a chair. We carried him next to the pool, banged a piece of pipe the number of times for the ladder crew, and watched him get up and walk right into the pool !! Hindsight says, damm he could have drowned, but it was very very funny when we did it!

Man, maybe I should look into one of these CPAP machines. Everyone else seems to have one!
