Last night, I had my first taste of fresh air in over seven weeks! It was glorious! With the doctor’s permission, Jim wheeled me outside in a wheelchair. I was as giddy as a kid on Christmas Eve! The hospital is high on a hill, so we were hoping that we could watch the fireworks over the Hartford skyline. Unfortunately, it was too cloudy to see anything beyond the hospital parking lot, but my-oh-my did I enjoy being outside! It was warm and just slightly humid, and the air smelled clean and moist, as it had rained earlier that evening. It was a perfect evening, being outside with Jim and our girls (even though they can’t appreciate fresh air quite yet!). We were one big happy family. Oh – and the next time anybody hears me complain about the Connecticut humidity, or what the humidity does to my hair – you have my permission to kick me!
