reassurance

A bit more wriggling, another ankle-label scraped off, a bit more accuracy in the arm-flailing, a bit more eye-tracking and smiling though still plenty of sleeping and some feeding, though any sort of regularity or reliability is still some time away. All still taking place in the hospital but the Wednesday escape-date was upgraded slightly to Wednesday-at-the-latest depending on whether wingpiglet's morning assessment tomorrow indicates suitability for early discharge and if this suitability is perhaps increased by a requirement for beds in their ward.

Although the journey hospitalwards only takes about twenty minutes of bicycle-movement-time I've not managed to get in particularly early so far due to an apparent worsening of my inability to leave home without several rounds of checking windows, checking doors, unplugging electrical items, moving electrical items so that they're likely to be away from direct sunlight and direct view of potential opportunistic thieves and so on. The recent doubling of the amount of doors to be concerned about was expected but the general increased level of nervousness over the past few days has increased the amount of pre-leaving faff even though the other things to be nervous about were much more deserving of nervousness considering that the loft has so far failed to burst into flames even on really hot days and that the fridge has been where it is for some time without similarly bursting into flames due to its non-ideal placement with regard to airflow of the heat generated at the back by the refrigerating mechanism.
