I had planned the op for now so as to be hopefully ready for new bees and wildlife in general. I can see the birdtable from my studio which has been out of bounds till yesterday. Lovely to see the blue tits and long tails... very reassuring!!<br /><br />Jill: Many many thanks.. I am getting there.. if slowly!<br /><br />CT: I hope it wasnt too vivid! I had to postpone the root canal as there is quite a steep staircase up to the torture chamber..so have that joy to come..<br /><br />Diana. I had to laugh.. about the stitches. My stitches were taken out on Christmas Eve and the wound split open on Christmas Day.. sigh. I patched it up with plaster strips and bandages and had a few glasses of wine..phew I will be glad when this is over.. then there is the other foot to do next year!!! <br />Yes you are right, really no excues for not sketching except I am supposed to keep the leg up.. subtext ..reading is easier and sloth is so seductive :) sharp green pencilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03995814359038535193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3946913143265151282.post-24070664210411661712012-12-14T19:58:03.072+00:002012-12-14T19:58:03.072+00:00No sketching excuses then!

Nice man kindly explained there were 2 sets of stitches and another layer holding me together. <br /><br />Wonder if you've read about vanity operations to remove the little toe, just so milady can wear pretty shoes. Imagine your pain and recovery, just for shoes.
