Moving out 2 (Electric Boogaloo)

It looks like Jake will be discharged sometime today. Like most hospital stays, it will take several unpredictable hours for the documents to be processed and the crates of medications to be delivered. He seems to have some energy and the other symptoms have subsided.  He's looking forward to playing chess against me when he's not hopped up on painkillers - so he can avenge his hospital defeats.

He seems to be hooked on the TV show Fargo.  Over the past week, that has replaced Law & Order SVU as his hospital pastime. He's up to season 3, and has two more seasons to go.  I have not been watching, so I don't know how often they say "You Betcha".

Happy Cyber Monday.  Over the last two weeks, lots of stuff has been ordered online from the hospital room (out of boredom). I do have some self control.  For example, I haven't ordered:

Woohoo! Congratulations on the release 🍾πŸ₯³πŸŽ‰πŸ‘πŸ½❤️
What’s the first thing Jake is gonna do when he gets home?
Ha, the mini microwave is cute. I’ve always thought the bigger ones were actually quicker. But it looks like a good way to annoy your colleagues 🀷🏽‍♀️

Just got through all of these blogs and wow, you all have been on a roller coaster! Your humor is much appreciated. Praying that the road is smooth from here on out and that you all get some rest. Btw, if Jake needs a new show to pass the time, check out Jury Duty on Netflix. The only problem is it’ll have him in stitches, and doubling over laughing may cause him pain. I’m actually serious.
