When I have a lot of confined time on my hands I love to glom a season or two of a favourite TV series -- Buffy, Call the Midwife, Downton etc. I even pretend I'm working...studying story structure, character development, pacing.

Being ...Sue, so glad to see your surgery went well. Being confined would drive me crazy! Years ago I was confined to bed for a while after an emergency appendix removal. I didn't believe I could actually get sick of reading but I did.I actually took up knitting, something I hadn't done for years and haven't done since! <br />BTW I so admire your Santa, he is amazing.Kandy Shepherdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16992773219169379298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2489168146200487747.post-68199235003700663862018-05-12T07:47:02.142+10:002018-05-12T07:47:02.142+10:00Thanks, Helen.

He thinks he's finished now, though I've been up and making my share for more than three weeks now. And we're sharing cooking meals again which is good. <br />The stitch count was in the pattern!

And yes, definitely better having someone else in the house, though my DB went to work, as I didn't want him hanging around wondering what he needed to do.

Where there is a will there is a way :)<br /><br />I do love that cross stitch<br /><br />Have Fun<br /><br />HelenHelenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03984438742736003285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2489168146200487747.post-25401063008499997762018-05-11T20:02:33.538+10:002018-05-11T20:02:33.538+10:00Firstly I love your cross stitch and secondly, did...Firstly I love your cross stitch and secondly, did you count those stitches? I’ve never had a forced confinement or even a sick day. But if I did I would spend my days lying in bed reading and my husband could bring me tea and food. This actually sounds good, I might try it on Sunday.Veronica @ The Burgeoning Bookshelfhttps://theburgeoningbookshelf.blogspot.com.aunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2489168146200487747.post-16228025372820562092018-05-11T19:37:27.681+10:002018-05-11T19:37:27.681+10:00Had 2 enforced medical vacations,one in 2003 after...Had 2 enforced medical vacations,one in 2003 after complications after my planned hystrectomy. Suffice it to say I had a post up abdominal abscess and ended up home off work for 5 months until my opened abdominal sound could heal in by granulation. Loved alone at the time, so I was happy to see my visiting nurse every day until the wound was manageable. Had lot of books and tv to watch, but the internet wasn't everything it is now. In 2011 I had a rare reaction to the Enbrel I was taking for my rheumatoid arthritis. After seeing every specialist known into God and man (except a podiatrist and proctologist) they finally figured out and controlled the problem, but I have had to medically retire and go on disability. Now I have my kindle, Netflix and all the lovely on demand tv that I didn't have the last time. I do use online grocery ordering at Walmart, so nice of them to shop and load the heavy things in to the car, but they don't have everything I want available so I still have to go in to the store every week or so.enjoy that new hip!<br />lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08702597564760699067noreply@blogger.com
