Stop: Today I cancelled my Blue Apron subscription. With my new work schedule, I’ll be traveling too much to cook the food sent every week. I rarely followed the recipes, but I used the ingredients for my own dishes. Before signing up for Blue Apron, I’d stopped cooking altogether, unless I was using the microwave. With the new job, I’ll be spending most evenings on the road, eating in restaurants.
About four years ago, I stopped using a CPAP for a few reasons. First, I was losing weight and my sleep apnea had gone away. I’d been using the CPAP mainly to keep my ex-wife from complaining about my snoring, and at a point realized she was no longer sleeping with me, so what did it matter whether I snored? Last, the CPAP mask and air filters were getting old and the place where I purchased CPAP supplies began requiring prescriptions for them. Since I no longer had an active CPAP prescription, I couldn’t get new supplies.
Go: I’ve gained weight over the last three years and I’m sure the apnea has returned, but I don’t want to take another sleep study just to confirm that. Today I went on Amazon.com and found out I could buy supplies without a prescription. So I did. I bought a new mask and air filters. They will be delivered by Tuesday. As soon as I start using the CPAP again, I’m sure I’ll start sleeping better again.
