The DH is in the hospital recovering from back surgery. It is very hard to find good food choices here. I ended up with a salad and pita bread w/hummus.....I've been here since 5 am and I ended up having a turkey/cheddar panini for breakfast and a slice of cranberry bread.

The bread sucks up ALL the calorie allotment for the day. I guess I'm having a salad for dinner tonight 'cause I'm out of calories for the day.

This is a pretty nice hospital so I'm going to ask the nurse if there is an exercise room I can use.....I worked out last night at our hotel and it was good to actually make that commitment and then follow through. I know it's an everyday thing, but when you're off your routine re-affirming that commitment really helps.

It's quiet and we're both going a little sir crazy. Neither one of us let the grass grow under our feet so not having anything that keeps us busy is a little hard. I brought my Nook and my knitting, I even brought spinning to do...but it's not the same as being able to go about doing what needs doing.

I'm glad he gets to go home tomorrow....just because he can get out and around. He is really, really bored. He was sitting up earlier working on the computer but it hurt after a while so now he's laying down. He's trying so hard NOT to go to sleep. He says he might miss something. I told him I'd wake him up when the hooter girls got here with his beer and chicken wings. He wants to order pizza later. Go figure. I think he's gonna be ok.
