Bed Rest

So here I am on best rest - well the end of best rest. Thank goodness!! I am going stir crazy and I have cabin fever bad!! Chris took me out to lunch today, YEAH!! So not much has happened. Been reading, watching movies, the Olympics and napping. You would think it would be nice to have a few days off to do that, but after a week and a half, I am ready to get going. And I can't. Today is the first day I can get up and move around, but for the next week, I have to take it easy. No walks or runs, no going up stairs fast, poor Chris - no intercourse -, no heavy lifting; basically light duty. It is hard. I am such a mover. I have so many projects around the house I want to get done and I can't. I will have to watch Chris do them. No worries, they are simple projects, a little painting and a little tile work. Easy right. I am still on my Gatorade and Powerade diet, it's getting old. I really wish I loved it as much as Coke. Chris does spoil me about once a week with a coke. He fills a shot glass up and lets me down. It tastes so good!! I also have to be careful on my meds - it can cause constipation. Have I ever mentioned how much I LOVE fiber. I can't stand oatmeal. So, I have some fiber bars and lots of fruit. I can handle that. I saw a commercial today for fiber cereal, I will have to try that one out. That is about what is going on. I am trying to be patient until the 28th for the pregnancy test. I have gone thru all the motions of being nervous, anxious, upset, happy...........I really try not to think about it, which is hard. One thing I have notice, Sammy, my female boxer, has been hanging very close to me. I have always trusted a dogs judgement and I think she knows something I don't. When I say she has been hanging close, she is laying basically on top of me, won't quit licking me and is always looking at me with her tail wiggling. I sure hope her sense is right!! I want to throw a shout out to my friends and family that have taken care of us!! The dinners have been awesome!! I needs to get a few new recipes, Chris is in love!! My Mother In Law is addicted to getting us fruit smoothies from McDonald's - they are pretty awesome!!! All my love!
