sleep test

Tom came today to begin work on our new closet. It will be in the space where our furnace used to be. He cut a hole where the vent was and mounted a shelf on the wall. I was given the job of spackling the nail holes and painting the walls. We had lunch and then went to McAllen to look for a Chrysler Town and Country. We went to Burns Motors and found one we liked but couldn’t make a deal that satisfied me. They wanted $16000 and I offered $15000. I kept making leaps toward their price, but they only came down small amounts. My final offer was $15200 but they wanted 15650. We left and went to the SAS store for some scuff coat for Evelyn’s shoes. We came home and made supper. I packed my little bag with pajamas and left for the sleep clinic for my sleep test. I arrived at 9 and waited quite a while. I learned that they really weren’t expecting me. Finally they did find bed for me. They wired my head in eight places, my chest, my legs (the wire from one to the other made me feel like a hobbled horse. The staff could monitor all my movements throughout the night. I could hardly turn over because of my hobble. I had to go to the rest room twice and they had to come in and unplug me to go. I had to carry the wires as I went. I did sleep well but most certainly snored.
