First day at home
Sat with Harriet yesterday while Charles went to get her meds. Most of the time she was sleeping peacefully in her own bed. After she woke up we talked some. She seemed content to be home but exhausted by the trip and not sure what to do, as in "I should get things organized" etc. As was true in the hospital Harriet lit up when Charles came home and gave her a kiss. As I left both Charles and Sketch were sitting on the bed and Harriet had a sweet, if tired, smile on her beautiful face.
