    ok thundershirts at the ready for tonight. Remembering the 5th today.

    My Dad was a veteran and he used to say "remember freedom isn't "free""

    So excited about the sun, can do some hanging out this morning. My sick leave from operation 1 is supposed to be over tomorrow however with this pneumonia the coughing is really wearing me out so I might ask for more time. x

    Great; early walk for the doggies and wrangle 'em into those shirts well before dark.. ;)

    Oh dear; the perils of a GA.. Definitely ask for more time to recover, raid the house for pillows so you can sleep as upright as possible - and give your GP a ring if you haven't done so already; antibiotics are probably in order to clear your chest before things go seriously Pete Tong!
    ..You do not want to end up with chronic pneumonia - trust me on this one ((gentle hugs)).

    I am hitting the Cipro hard core.

    I am nervous about tomorrow's election. I have voted. Please let it be Obama.

    Morning NewLeaf,

    So sorry to hear that you are having to contend with a chest infection along with everything else :(.

    Hope you take really good care of yourself today. Can you snuggle up with doggies, a good book and a hot water bottle?

    Hi NL

    sorry to hear you are not well. Keep warm. Dont rush back to work until you are right.

    Hope your doggies are ok after last night. Fortunately mine are not bothered but my previous one was terrified of them - its awful. My JRT just runs around, hackles up barking his head off!

    Hello my dear dear friend. I hope you are feeling better after your surgery and nasty chest infection. I am so sorry I wasn't around to wish you good luck but I'm sure you know that those wishes were just sitting there for you anyway.

    Take care, speak soon Granny x

    I have had a chest xray and it looks as if I can have the 2nd surgery on the 13th. Just trying to prepare mentally.

    Glad to see you're feeling more cheerful - those little pills must be doing their work!

    Could not resist putting the thousandth post on your thread! ;)
    (Congratulations! :D )
