Ha ha thanks Piggles hunny, I just might do that. I am a little less sore today Bean love but very tired, I knew I wouldn't get away with it altogether. Oh I love the idea with the Giraffe, it is little things like that which make remembering some times of childhood special.
Hugs Jo xx

Hahaha, love the George story. It reminded me of a story a friend told about growing up in an apartment with very thin walls and floors. Her dad read her Good Night Moon every night for weeks, until the upstairs neighbor yelled through the floor, "Can't you read her something else for a change," lol

Ha! How funny, although that level of sound transmission is not good!
Glad the soreness is going down, Jo, and hope you feel a bit more energetic today. An operation is a lot for your body to go to - coping with the anaesthetic and all the healing to do. You might need to have an extra steak to help keep your strength up?!

I couldn't stand to live in a place where everyone could hear everything I said. I talk to myself way too much, and they'd probably think I had company! I did rent an apartment like that, and didn't last very long. The neighbors on the other side of our wall fought constantly, and as loudly as possible.

Ha hah piggles love, that is great. Thanks Bean sweetie, I am still feeling very tired but the soreness is going down. My plaster has given up the ghost and fallen off completely and the wound is healing nicely. I talk to myself as well Piggles sweets and many a time Paul has walked in and I am in full flow LOL!!

We don't get many cute animals. We do get a lot of morons doing what they do best in reality shows, and totally unrealistic shows about things that would never really happen. Lots of fodder for me to critique

We get more than our fair share of those too Piggles hun, it isn't just where you are I assure you, morons seem to be able to spread themselves very thinly. The cutie programme I was referring to was called "Pets make us laugh out loud" and it was just adorable. Feeling a bit sore today, maybe I have been doing too much.

It's probably things healing up, Jo - although, like you say, sometimes when you start feeling better, you can do a bit too much and be reminded that you have recently had an operation! Have a nice day of rest tomorrow, won't you?

I agree about overdoing it. I do that, and pay. I hope you feel better, Jo

Lol! I totally understand. As much as hubby helps when I've overdone it and can't get around very well, I do have to put up with his constant reminders that I brought it on myself. I know. I just can't stop myself from getting a lot done when I actually feel up to it!

I know what you mean Piggles love, Paul will do things but I have to keep in at him and it it tiresome. He has taken over a few jobs because I just couldn't do them anymore and not only is it not done properly, I have to issue constant reminders. Very annoyed with him today, he was in a foul mood this morning and when he complained because I had to keep resting in between jobs which he knows anyway, he accused me of not doing anything about it the Pain I am in. Wow, was I mad and still am. I think he thinks I enjoy being like this which couldn't be further from the truth and is hurtful and unsupportive. Sorry ladies, rant over.
Hugs JO xxx

Rant all you need, Jo. If anything, he's probably frustrated with his own restrictions, and with not being able to take care of you the way you need, and was turning that frustration out on you. When hubby got laid off, he asked if I could get a job. I would have been working all these years, if I could manage to sit/stand/etc long enough to do a job. He knows that. He was just acting out his concerns that he wouldn't get another job. That was before we met with our financial adviser, and found he could retire now. He hasn't mentioned it since, especially not when he's helping me up the stairs after our walks, because I can't make it. They want to be able to do all we need them to do. Not doing the job to our standards just frustrates them more. We've been working on using humor to say the things we want to say to criticize each other, and it's helped, but we both still get too frustrated sometimes to not start placing blame where there isn't any. Paul may need a break, too, and just feel he can't have one because there's too much to do, and you can't do it. Let him get over his frustration. I hope it's soon, for both of you

Aww rant away Jo, it must have been a kick in the guts to feel like he was almost blaming you for not being able to do what you want to do. As 3piggles said, it's probably just that he hates seeing you in so much pain and is frustrated he can't take it away, but I think you'd have to have the patience of a saint to see it that way at the time. I hope he's apologised now. Wouldn't blame you if you were still seething a bit though - when we have a lot to endure, we really need the support of those closest to us to help us power on.
How's your wound doing now? Is it still healing up nicely without too much soreness?
