before the snow!  On the drive home from the hospital it was raining and as I was driving the last mile it started sleeting.  Now its mostly sleet and snow.   But I am safe and sound at home!

I made a quick breakfast while I was making my food to bring to the hospital.   Two slices of everything bread, 1 piece of cooked bacon, 1/4 cup egg beaters and .6 ounces of swiss.

I ate this in the car on the way

So I packed a lunch to bring to the hospital and about half way there I realized that I forgot it on the counter! 🙁   I had to stop at the store anyway, so I picked up sushi for me and Tony – not much to choose from – either California rolls or spicy tuna.

I took some pics of my drive downtown.  Chicago is very bike friendly!

One thing I don’t like about driving downtown is all the crazy intersections!

and I think people drive like maniacs and pedestrians feel its perfectly alright to just walk across the street regardless of whether the light is green or not!

And more great hospital food.  (kidding!)  Today’s lunch menu: beef stroganoff – I took one bite of a piece of meat and half of it was pure fat!  But I love that they put fresh vegetables on the tray, then put the tray in a hot box:

sweaty tomato anyone?

Hannah bought Tony some trail mix - I had to try some - not a lot though because one serving is only 3 tablespoons!

So it took me about an hour and 20 minutes to get home from the hospital – it was so windy!

this big giant flag was really whipping in the wind!

Happy to say that Tony and I got to lay together and watch the Sox game this afternoon – I think only like 8 days until opening day already!   They took off all the dressings on his leg and its looking really good.   They may even get him into PT tomorrow. 

Hannah couldn’t figure out how to do a guest post without me, but she did make beer bread while I was gone – so good!

It has a slightly sweet taste to it - it was just coming out of the oven when I got home - good job Hanners!

So right now I have oven fries in the oven and we are going to have pork bbq sandwiches which is thawing right now.   Off to finish putting that together – see you later!
