1. A tired husband will fall asleep even on the most uncomfortable of hospital cots.
2. My brain may be atrophying faster than my muscles, despite the fact that I'm still doing some work and reading and playing sudoku. Yikes.
3. The ceiling of the stairwell in the house we lived in our senior year of college was painted like a blue sky with fluffy white clouds. That could be a good idea for the ceilings of hospital rooms, if done right. Especially for bedrested mamas who don't get to spend a lot of time outdoors. Or those who live in San Francisco where the fog is so dense you can't see your hand in front of your face even if you get to go outdoors.
4. Buggy must be having a growth spurt, based on both my incredible hunger and hormonal surge that last night resulted in a dream from which I awoke and found myself sobbing and crying actual tears.
5. My favorite nurse offered to take my laundry home and do it herself so as not to overwhelm Scott. The nurses here at CPMC are, for sure, the best in the world.
6. You know the city you live in is too expensive when your nurse tells she works as both a deputy attorney general and a labor and delivery nurse.
7. A Friday night homemade dinner, delivered and enjoyed with friends, is a great way to end the week. Thanks A&F!
8. There were more, but I can't remember. See #2.

Aw Paige, my brain is completely gone too...I blame Sunflower, so you can certainly blame Buggy :)

Yeah for good people who love helping bedrest momma's!
Hi Paige,
I'm praying that knitting is bringing you satisfaction as you pass the time "baking" Buggy. My church choir is praying for you!
We are having an early visit by Old Man Winter. There is a strong possibility of snow greeting us in the morning.
Take care! With our love and best wishes, Mark and Melody Baker
So glad you have visitors helping to alleviate your boredom! What thoughtful friends. Hope you're doing well and Buggy growing in leaps and bounds. (((Hugs)))
I absolutely love #6! It is so true. I am enjoying the refreshing break from overpriced living, I have to admit... Your sense of humor always puts a smile on my face, Paige. You are so inspiring!
