dad update

good news on dad. he's doing well enough to leave the hospital today. unfortunately the doc hasn't been around to sign his DC papers! poor dad. he's crawling the walls antsy. but he's feeling much much better. mom's a little disgusted with the services the hospital offers. no snack bar or shuttle service on weekends. she was going to park in valet but that's closed weekends too. i think it stinks too. how do people who have walking difficulties walk the huge parking lot? what about eating a healthy meal since the snack shop is closed? the hospital is a huge system, and they're growing yearly, so why limit services on weekends? incidentally, this is the same hospital where i visited the RE and had a lousy experience, not to mention the useless visits to the derm. the hospital sits half empty. what a waste. but i shouldn't complain. the doctors fixed my dad up quickly and ably, and for that i'm grateful.

our bishop presided over our church service this morning and the service went well. that should please dad. the boy sang his last anthem for the season, until next fall. he's such a good little singer.

hubby painted our bathroom this weekend and will install the new closet. he did it to keep his mind occupied instead of worrying about dad. the walls used to be this dark greenish paneling. now it's a soothing pale shade of sage green. the room looks totally different now! much brighter and cheerful. hubby also bought ceiling paint, becos it didn't occur to us to paint the ceiling first. we hadn't planned on it, since the ceiling is white, but it looks terribly dingy and there are lots of water spots from leaks from heavy storms/house washing. i plan on getting some new rugs (we've had the current ones since we've been married and the rubber backing has worn off). after it's done, we'll get the closet set up and move our things into it. after that's done, we'll tackle the middle room and paint that and get it ready for the boy.

i'm 20 weeks now. i feel pretty good and feel the babies more. they feel more squirmy and i feel them in different places which makes me feel better. i'm craving really bad stuff right now - crispy treats and cherry kool-aid. shame on me! my sugar seems to be creeping up and i'm trying really hard to control it. on tuesday is our next checkup and the big ultrasound so we'll get to hopefully see better pictures of the babies.

guess that's it.
