Ok so how bad am I! I am going into hospital next week for an operation on my eye! When I come out of the general anaethetic the nurses have told me I will need to rest and I will not be able to see out of my operated on eye for a few days...... but what will I be doing can you guess?......LOL yes, I will be comping in my hospital bed with my one good eye as soon as I wake up!!!!! Forget the pain - I have just bought a new dongle to take in with me!!!! The nurses will love me!!!
lol i'm 2 weeks post op at the moment and i crammed as much in before my op as i could so i wouldnt get behind, if i could have comped in hospital i would have but i was in agony. im now sat at my comp everyday as im on crutches and a full leg brace for the next 5 weeks so i cant get out and about as much but its a great excuse to justify sitting here comping day in day outlol xxx

What are we all like lol! When I was working I often rang in sick when I got behind with my comping!!!! Also I never get a Summer tan - I'm always white! Why? - well when most people are heading out into the garden, I am sitting indoors on my laptop! Yes I'm sad but I'm happy being sad lol! I actually prefer the Winter as I feel less guilty about staying in!:TA big thanks to all who post and sprinkling lucky dust to all who enter :smileyhea0
