8 Days Post-Op

It's been 8 days since my hysterectomy and I am beginning to feel a little bored at home doing nothing. Have you noticed that there's always nothing interesting to watch on TV when you have time to watch TV....?!

Hubby went out with the kids for a few hours the other day. Before leaving the house he made sure that I had everything I needed to keep myself occupied and comfortable. He set up the laptop for me in case I wanted to surf the internet and I had a bottle of water, my handphone and TV remote control with me on the sofa.

He also made sure I had contraptions that I could use to help me pick things up from the floor (since I can't bend down too much)...

...and something to help me reach the fuse box and turn off the power supply to my bedroom in case there is lightning, because the modem is in the master bedroom (as I can't go up and down the stairs too often)...

kitchen utensils turned into a hook of some sort

And I had settled down comfortably on the sofa to watch some TV thinking that I had everything close at hand... until the house phone rang...and it was way on the OTHER side of the room...sigh...
