Bed resters, what's the high point of your Friday?

(Again, posting early since I'll be busy until the afternoon).
What's positive in your world today? Let's hear it.
And a GTKY: What is the one single thing you are looking forward to most after your restrictions are (presumably) lifted? And a related question, will your restrictions be lifted prior to delivery, or are you on bedrest until you deliver?

Re: Bed resters, what's the high point of your Friday?
After 3 ultrasounds trying to know for sure, we are 99% sure that we're having a girl! She was still being a little bit modest but I think we got a clear enough view to see that there wasn't anything hiding. And if there was, well we'll have to return a few things lol.
I'm pretty much supposed to take it easy until my cerclage stitch comes out at 36 weeks. Dr said I could try going back to work then, but will I really want to at that point? haha

Lol at restroom lines! I butted in front of ~30 women at Penn Station one time. The attendant said I could, but I've never felt more fearful for my life.
High point: Realizing that a serving of cookies and cream ice cream is well within my snack carb allowance.
GTKY: On BR until delivery, which is 2.5 weeks away at most. I just want to be able to walk freely right now. There's lots of things I can't wait to do, but it will be so nice to have my freedom to move around how I want to.
Today, I am 20 weeks! In my case, I'm sure that's more than half way! Yay! Also, my parents are taking all three of our boys for the night! I've never been so excited! LoL
GTKY: I am looking forward to the freedom like most of you have already said.
The only time I get out is for my weekly u/s and appointment. I'm used to be on the go, either working or cleaning, but I feel like I'm adjusting ok. I actually don't want people seeing me, because I feel so bloated and heavy already! Not mention my pregnancy glow has yet to show up! LoL
As far as how long I'll be on BR, that's up in the air right now. I would love to eventually be upgraded to modified BR again!
I'm pretty excited to have some of my good girlfriends come over to watch movies and eat pizza tonight, I'm in desperate need of some girlfriend time!!!
My mom came over so my DD could have a friend come over and play, it was fun to watch the girls play all morning!
Gtky: I'm looking forward to just going to target or going out to dinner! Those things sound so nice right now!
The plan as of now is to stay on bed rest until at least 32 wks, if I make it that far (fingers crossed!) and then we will re-evaluate, I have a feeling it might be extended but I'm hoping if I make it as far as December 8th (I would be 34 wks) I'll be allowed to at least to go my DD's bday party!
GTKY: I am looking forward to being able to do what I want without answering to anyone, and to getting back to the gym because the scale is scary right now!
High Point: My mommy making some of my favorite things to eat. She is Lebanese and I love when she makes Tabouli!
GTKY: On bedrest until delivery--- Dr suspects in the next 3 weeks.... obviously I pray for baby's sake it will be longer.
My mom should be here in the next couple of hours! I can't wait, she is coming to keep me company and help out around the house while DH is traveling this weekend. I am starting to go a little stir crazy so the company is very much appreciated.
GTKY: going out for dinner... And taking the dog for a walk/to the park. I feel guilty I can't take I'm out and give him the exercise he needs. We hired a go walker but i miss our exercise together.
It looks like I will be on some sort of rest until I deliver. 6ish more weeks to go.
What am I looking forward to most? SEX!! I haven't actually asked my doc if it will be okay after the cerclage comes out...too scared she's gonna say no! Don't wanna be disappointed for the next 5 weeks! I'll wait til that day; maybe by then I'll be so close to delivery that I won't care if she says no! FX she says yes...!
