I`m Home!

 

Hello everyone,

I`m home from hospital and I`m pleased to say everything went well.  I feel really good after a good night sleep and apart from feeling a little sore I`m back to normal.  Well that is apart from an extremely painful throat from the anaesthetic breathing tube.  I`ve had enough anaesthetics in the past to know that it`s usual to get a sore throat but this time I feel as though someone has tried to strangle me!  Oh well, it should clear up in a couple of days.  I got home last night at about 8 and I have to say, not a moment too soon.  I had my evening meal in the hospital and it was appalling,  I just couldn`t finish it despite being very hungry. I`ve had better school dinners and my memory of those isn`t great so I`m really glad I didn`t have to stay in any  longer or I would have starved...lol! 

I want to thank you all for your good wishes while I was in hospital.  It was really kind of you and I really appreciate it.  I have to admit that I`m terrified of anaesthetics and it was a real help knowing that I had so much support.  Jim has been doing the housework for me and doing it well too, it`s not easy for him as I`m very fussy about how things should be done but he`s carried on regardless despite my fault finding.  I know, I know,  I`m lucky to have him and I shouldn`t complain, but I`m really trying not to....honest...lol!

Kerry came round this morning with a particularly cheerful Roman, he had us all laughing at his antics with Jake.  Jake was lying down by the sofa and Roman wanted to get past, so what did he do?  Climb over him of course, with Jake barely raising an eyebrow at the indignity of it.  Later when Jake was standing in front of him he crawled underneath him.  Maybe you had to see it to appreciate but their interractions are just so funny to watch.  I think they will be great mates as they grow up together and with Jake only being two years older than Roman they should have at least the next nine years together.   I thinkevery little boy should have a dog and Jake is Roman`s dog as much as ours.

While I`m on the subject of dogs I realised that with a doubt Jake is `Jim`s dog` as opposed to mine.  Where Hannah was definitely `my dog` it`s obviously Jim`s turn to be the boss.   Hannah loved everyone of course, but given the chance she would spend more time with me and followed me everywhere.  I had never even thought about it with Jake because he loves everyone too.  However, over the last week or two I`ve noticed that when Jim goes home from work, or back from wherever Jake goes mad when he sees him, almost falling over from his exuberant tail wagging.  Also when we go for a walk together, he always runs back to Jim.  I think it`s lovely because like I said he loves us all but it`s Jim`s turn to have `his dog` and I`m just the `bosses wife`!

Anyway, I`m off to make some lunch now, the hospital has certainly given me a healthy appetite, Jim brought some delicious chocolate brownies this morning and I ate mine in double quick time...lol!  I hope you all have a lovely day.  Bye Bye for now and take care. :o)
