    Definitely wouldn't be fun, not at all - they're mentioning if you're good you could get out on Christmas Eve, so it might well happen, but of course you can't assume it.

    I'm off up north on Monday, no interweb connection, so there'll be another gap for me, before I find out how you've done - I really hope it all turns out the way you *want* it to. I'll be dealing with post-op issues myself, 2nd Christmas in a row - my mum's cataract operation - very common, but she found it quite an ordeal (she's quite elderly, seeing as how I'm quite old myself :D). Just blathering to let you know *why* I'm not here supporting you. Will be back!

    I know. Cheek of it :rotfl:

    All pressies are wrapped and under tree. The next day delivery of messed up Works parcel has never materialised so won't be in SB's stocking unless it arrives next week AND I get out of hospital in time AND I'm fit for it. Pretty unimpressed tbh for a variety of reasons.

  • I am really enjoying my rest, thank you :)- slept most of yesterday :eek: Ventured to the big Mr T this morning so all stocked up :D, took Pooch to the beach and just about to head off for another nap I think :o

    Did anyone else have a horrendous hail storm earlier?

    Started just as I was on my way to the car at Mr T & I was absolutely soaked by the time I'd got the shopping in!

    Pants to the delivery - I had one delivered yesterday which was 2 days off being sent 4 weeks ago :mad: (send before the end of Nov to avoid the rush!)

    Anyway .... will be thinking of you tomorrow and sending healing thoughts so that you're tucked up at home again in no time.

Bless his sweet cotton socks! I'll keep thinking of you, checking in here, and sending positivity your way. Hand it over to the surgeons and trust in their skill.
