This past weekend, we took a road trip to Grandma's and Uncle Chip's. Sleeping away from home is always a challenge for us because we are such creatures of habit. We need a fan and our own pillows and blankets, our soft mattresses, etc. We had a wonderful time visiting everyone, but we were sleep deprived.
Upon returning home, DS10 and I had to head right back out to spend the night at the hospital. DS10 needed to have a sleep study done. This was an experience I do not wish to repeat. It seemed like they had 100 wires hooked into my son. The ones on his head were glued on and in the morning had to be disolved off. In his sleep he kept pulling off the oxygen tube until they taped it to his face. I was balled up on a cot next to his bed and every time a wire came off I was awakened by them coming in to hook it back up. Niether one of us could have gotten much sleep.
Monday night I was so grateful to be back in my nest! I slept long and deep and realized what a gift a comfortable bed is.
