    Morning all, many thanks for your kind thoughts and good wishes.

    I can assure you all that I am doing very little other than breathing, the painkillers see to that, fall asleep whenever I sit down.

    I'm actually getting quite restful,refreshing sleep so all good. Small amount of exercise,walking from front door to back several times a day. DS says we will venture outdoors today, maybe 100 yds or so.

    He's being an absolute star, from pulling on my circulation stockings before he goes to work, coming home at lunchtime to feed me and the dogs and cooking the meal when he gets in after work. His food is much better than the stuff in hospital, it was absolutely dire.

    DD has been doing housework, shopping and keeping little J out of grandma's way.
    Bless him, they came to bring me home and he came over and gave me a gentle hug, not one of his usual boisterous squishy ones, and whispered" I've missed you gramma,but I'll be gentle."

    No woolly stuff happening here yet, can't stay awake long enough, although I did do a few squares between tests before the op last week.

    Eyes are closing again so tata the noo.

    Lovely the picture, Jean! Thanks for your email, too.

    Lovely to hear from you, Elaine, and to hear how well you are being looked after, which will help you to recover quickly. I am very glad that you are getting decent, sleep, too; it's so important.

    Well I am having half an hour's P and Q . SIL is moving about 800 yds from us. Last night her son arrived to help which is marvellous. He is 6'6 ins and the gentlest giant you could wish to meet. He will son empty boxes and shove things around. I have put him in charge of the BBQ tonight too. So that will be great. I just need to make the side dishes now.

    Very emotional day in the Chalky households I guess! Some big smiles about to arrive - Im so excited for you all. Dgs got us up at 5.20 am - goodness knows why- but when he said 'Thank you Grandy for driving me home it'was worth it. I am going to snooze for a little while but will be back for news later xxx
