Shower!

My parents are coming this afternoon, and I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror. NO WAY was I going to look like *that* when they came. So, got everything ready, and had a shower. IT WAS AMAZING. OMG, if I'd known about this shower before, I would have been in there every.single.day

Intense water pressure, and this little dial thingy attached to the tap that regulates the temperature so that it doesn't fluctuate. I must have been in there for half an hour.

Ahhh.... so, I'm squeaky clean! I asked for some new mesh panties, so I can wash the ones I've got. My hair is braided, and I just slathered myself in body butter. The scent is a little overpowering, but everyone says I smell nice. Hope I don't run into anyone with a scent allergy!

The ladies that run the gift shop downstairs came by with their little cart. I bought a couple chocolate bars, and ogled the preemie clothes. There was a footed sleeper I fell in love with, but their debit system wasn't working. Going to make a mental note to get someone to pick it up from the shop for me! They also had these adorable little hats that say "I'm a Keeper" on them. <3

My nurse told me I have to take it easier than I have been, with the showering and getting myself decent. Sigh, can't win! I guess she has a point, it probably wouldn't be good to do too much.

Olga might get to go home tonight. Lucky! I hope that my next roomie is a good one, sort of sketchy when it comes down to maybe having someone awful again. Speaking of sketchy, while I was in the elevator going down for my ultrasound, there were two girls in there too, who were clearly drug addicted. Eek. They looked scary, and so pregnant. Beth said that there's a unit on this floor that is dedicated to high-risk due to drug use pregnancies. I think I'm happy to stay over here in my safe little bubble.

I'm boooooored.
