Killing me
This just killed me. AND it got me to stop my FF-ing and rewind to watch the whole commercial. AND I got what product it was for. AND I now want to try their new flavor.
Wow. A successful broadcast TV commercial.

I knew I loved The Knot
Let the choir sing. The Knot has launched a baby website. Consolidated trendy registry. Hallelujah. The Nest Baby.
In the meantime, the nausea is BACK. Sadness, dites moi. It's not nearly as bad as it was before, but it's been back the past few days. And I am even more tired than I was in the beginning.
But I am more and more excited every day to meet the PERSON growing INSIDE ME.

Always with the extremes, those Hudsons
Over the past few days, my dad has continued his gradual but steady progress. He's still on the TPN and he's still only able to process clear liquids, but within that realm we've seen progress.
His primary care doc came in this morning and finally shared with him that 13% of acute pancreatitis end in death. That was to help illustrate that while his progress is painfully slow, it's still progress. His surgeon came in and told him that this is the worst case of pancreatitis he's ever seen. So lots of perspective for James today.
His mood is good, and he's enjoying many visitors and their conversation that keeps his mind off of his swollen belly. But he mostly wants to go home.
They think maybe he will go home late next week where he'll finish recovery before having his gall bladder removed.
That's the scoop!
