Up but not yet running

Apologies for the lack of blogs and many thanks for all your messages of goodwill. My colleagues assured me that I would be on a high after all the morphine during my operation but in fact it made me very sick. The hospital then sent me home with a bag of boxes and instructions to take up to 30 pills a day! These really laid me low and after three days I decided to go on a pill strike and felt much better. I rang the doctor who proceeded to scream at me and insist that I should at the very minimum take the antibiotics. Friends very kindly sent me flowers but the house began to look like a funeral parlour so when somebody else said they were going to post me a bunch I begged them not to! Today I am feeling a great deal better and would have gone to work, had it not been for the snow.
