Yes, I'm harping on about my surgery again

[miss_s_b]

I think I did too much on Monday going to the doctor's AND to work to drop off my sick note because I was completely wiped out yesterday. I got out of bed for maybe 2 hours in the evening. The whole "don't lift anything heavier than a cup of tea for at least three weeks" thing is getting very old. Things heavier than a cup of tea which I normally lift without thinking include:

• Roxy
• Holly
• plates of food, pots and pans
• pints of beer

Thankfully, magister has stuck around to be nursemaid, which is lovely. It takes a lot of the pressure off matgb, and means that I don't have to plan everything (even going to the toilet) like a military manoeuvre. And Holly thinks it's fab because she adores him. And we have done lots of podcast bits; expect episode 2 today at some point.

Doggies are being great; Roxy has only jumped on me once, and Byron is being SO gentle with me.... Mind you, he knows what surgery is like.

Anyway, an important question has arisen which I think you should all answer:

Just be patient and allow yourself to be nursemaided. These things can't be rushed.

I look forward to episode two with an unhealthy level of excitement. :)

You have now earwormed me with horrible hair-metal.

If left over chocolate cake is a perfectly suitable breakfast (as I had yesterday), so is cherry pie!

You can let other people wait on you hand and foot for a while, since you obviously deserve it, being the royalty you are. ;)

Maybe Holly can make peanut butter sandwiches & bowls of cereal for dinner (as I used to do when my mom was sick and I was a wee thing, because it was the only thing I knew how to make by myself, LOL).

anyone who has had major surgery is allowed to talk about it as much as they like.
it's brilliant you're doing all you can to keep up with the doctor's orders, too. you've got wonderful family and friends. :-)
