Pink bush.

One of the bushes in our yard is VERY pink.. :/ :) Not the most normal Fall color, but it is kinda pretty. :)




(That is our backyard btw.)

I had an excellent night last night! I slept very well, woke up on my own at 07.00. I was able to change position without too much trouble, and I was even able to sleep on my right side for once.

The horrible pain didn't show up last night like it normally does, and the pain during the day is much, much less now. I'm not sure why the pain is going away, but the inflamed area is getting bigger, or it is changing position.. :/ :)

I regularly take my temperature (before my pain pills, which reduce fever), and yesterday it was slightly above average a couple of times, 98.9 ºF (37,2ºC). But otherwise, it is staying pretty normal.

I would have done extremely well yesterday, but I was having some upper back pain on both sides of my back, under my shoulder blades. It was worse when sitting, but the pain would go away when I would lay on my side. Fredrik and I are thinking that it is because of my bad posture the last couple of weeks. I have to sit a little strangely to minimize the pain as much as possible. And he thinks that with my leaning slightly forward when I sit and then the added belly weight pulling me forward, that my back is very unhappy. So I am trying to work on that and it has been better.

My appetite is back a little!
But like I said, I think this is the calm before the storm.. :/ :) Because the hardened area is expanding a little every day, or it is migrating, either or... (Which I don't care about as long as the pain stays away - so I can function as close to normal as possible.)

Fredrik is going to eat some breakfast and then go do some measuring.
I'm washing a huge load of sheets. The dryer has a light on the inside when you open the door.. :/ :) Not sure that is entirely necessary, but it is nice. :)

I think Fredrik's plan for the day is try to finish up as much as possible with the molding in the Baby's room.. My main goal is to go through my hospital bags and finialize all that stuff. We've bought a few things to take to the hospital to munch, some juice boxes, etc ... Might try to pick up a few more things to throw into the cooler bag when the time comes.

Not sure there is that much else right now.. :/
I'm trying to deal with my.. illness and Fredrik is helping as much as possible.
The Baby was super quiet yesterday, but seems to have woken up a little today. :)
