I'm in hospital waiting for laparoscopic surgery for endometriosis. Was meant to come in at 11.30 but got asked to come in at 7.30 so haven't eaten since last night. I am not complaining as women have already gone to theatre for worse than me but I'm just getting fed up and more nervous. Please take my mind off it!

Hope it goes well. What would you be doing today I'd you weren't in hosp?

myusernameisnotmyusername · 15/07/2019 12:23

Thank you. I would be at work!

I’m here all day! I had key whole Saturday morning to have my gall bladder out and I’m home now and not allowed to move off the sofa! How long do you have to stay in for after your procedure?

myusernameisnotmyusername · 15/07/2019 12:24

Oh how are you feeling? I'm hoping to go home today.

Any good box sets?

Any tips to stop a cat pooing in my garden?! < taking your mind firmly off food

DaisyChainsGetBroken · 15/07/2019 12:38

You prob want box sets that are easy to watch not too complex. I would watch stuff like Friends in this situation. But some people hate things like that.

myusernameisnotmyusername · 15/07/2019 12:38

Orange peel?

myusernameisnotmyusername · 15/07/2019 12:38

I quite like friends.

Hi OP- you’re doing great keeping your mind busy. I’m sure it won’t be long before you go down and then it will be done.

Have you got somebody to pick you up later and give you TLC?

There I've scattered segments of mini tangerines all round the area. Sorry I seem to have brought the conversation back to food.

Excellent I reccomend friends then. Can dip in and out and lighthearted while recovering

Do you like crab op? Walked back from the beach at 11 pm last night with my big rottweiler carrying a dead crab. All it's legs were hanging out the sides of her mouth! She looked like an alien in the darkness!!
A beachy pic to cheer you up....

DH watched the new queer eye trailer on his commute this morning and messaged me from the train to say we have to watch it and that he was crying Grin

If you like the sound of that and have Netflix then queer eye.

Good luck, and plenty of peppermint tea for afterwards (parp)

myusernameisnotmyusername · 15/07/2019 17:32

Ha ha. Thanks for all these posts. I've had my op now and back on the ward. Thanks so much for talking to me. I love that picture of your dog.

OP posts:
myusernameisnotmyusername · 15/07/2019 17:34

I had to think then- I thought your DH was crying at Queer Eye then realised you meant because it was funny!

I used to watch this programme called beauty and the geek- very lame but I loved it!

OP posts:
Haggisfish · 15/07/2019 17:36

I LOVED that programme! Hope you recover well.

CleverQuacks · 15/07/2019 17:38

Oh I loved beauty and the geek!

Hope you are feeling ok and recover quickly

Yellowweatherwarning · 15/07/2019 17:41

Meant to mention ddog is recovering from surgery also! Maybe you need some sea air too op!

myusernameisnotmyusername · 15/07/2019 18:00

Thank you. Hope your dog is ok. I have a week off with dd at the end of July. Maybe I could go somewhere then.

OP posts:
myusernameisnotmyusername · 15/07/2019 18:01

Sorry @Orchidflower1 I didn't answer. Yes DP is coming with our DD in a bit.

OP posts:
Chartreuser · 15/07/2019 18:02

No, he was crying actual tears. I remember Beauty and the Geek, and that Ladette to Lady with that Butler too!

So glad you're out the other side, hope you make it home soon

myusernameisnotmyusername · 15/07/2019 18:21

Ha ha. Bless him. Thank you. I really appreciate everyone distracting me Smile
