There's one good thing about being bed bound...

..At least to Rita. More time in Mom's arms. When Rita was recovering from eye surgery last year, there was nowhere she'd rather be but in Mom's arms. Mom held her 8 hours a day. It was the cutest thing. And, I caught her there again this morning.

Mom continues to rally and ebb throughout the day and night. She periodically tries to "make a break for it". I just saw her trying and asked her what she was doing. "Hanging out" was the answer. Cute. She's still on the chocolate milk binge and is at the bottom of her second bottle right now. Off we go to make a chocolate milk run.

John and I took the opportunity (with Mike and Sharyn and Carina at the house) yesterday to head to Annapolis where we had a beautiful day walking around in the 70 degree weather. The convertible was a great ride and much laughter was had to and fro. A great time was had.
