Beth had yet another doctor's appointment in Fort Wayne yesterday, and he told her that she was doing better than she had been on Monday enough so that he was going to try to let her go another week or two. He said that last Monday he was almost sure he would have delivered the baby yesterday but her blood pressure was down some so he changed his mind. Now he wants to see her again on Tuesday (he told us to bring our toothbrushes) and he'll judge from there. This morning I went out because I had gotten a flyer for a big sale at one of the local used car chains and wanted to see what kind of stuff they had. I wound up test driving a 1998 Ford F-150 XLT 3-door extend cab home to show Beth. We both really liked it a lot (and had had a feeling lately that maybe we were a little hasty buying the van last fall) and wound up trading in the van and taking the truck. So, now we have a towing vehicle that is 10 years newer with 90,000 miles fewer on it, and makes me feel a lot better about selling the Saturn, which we have also decided to do, because I don't want to have 3 cars. PJ and Roma visited today from Indy. We didn't do a whole lot because Beth is on bedrest.
