We are home

It is time to get a good night's rest. We are home. Bob has an infection. It takes a few days for the culture to grow, so we do not know specifically what bacteria is at fault this time. Our regular doctor was in today. She also had a chest x ray done for him, because she thought she heard a crackle in one of his lungs. Bob is in bed. I am going soon. Last night he was pretty busy, plus in a hospital they come in and turn on the lights really often. Neither of us got a lot of rest. I did get an oil change done on the car this morning, though. People all around us had rain storms. Our town got .78 of an inch. Not a flood by any means. It is still light outside, but bed sounds really good right now.

I hope you get some quality sleep tonight. And I hope Bob does too. You’ve both got loads going on right now.

I'm glad you and bob are home. And, yes it's hard to sleep in a hospital. I'm still haunted by Merry had a little lamb, because that was the chair alarm.

Yeah, the sad thing about the hospital is the two things you want — rest and nourishment — are the two things you can’t get. Glad you’re home, where you can rest up.

It's still light here at 8:30 pm, too. No rain today although I did hear heat lightning again. I wish Bob would stop playing with infections. I hope he doesn't have anything wrong with his lungs. I hope you both get a good night's sleep.

Another infection is just what he doesn't need. I hope you've been able to get some good rest.

I am glad to hear he got to come home. I hope you both can rest now, and that he feels stronger soon.
