A Short Hiatus


I'm taking a short hiatus from the blogosphere (10-14 days probably) while I have surgery to remove a benign polyp which has taken up residence in my colon. The freeloading little bastard is scarfing down my nutrients and trying to grow large enough to become a blockage. Well, we'll just see about that, my fine friend!

The surgery is on Wednesday and then I'll spend a few days in hospital. My Rare One is going to nurse me when I get home. I already have a small brass handbell with which to summon her so that she may attend to my every wish and need. Hee hee, yeah, precisely.

I'll let you know how I'm doing when I get home. Hopefully, I'll be able to do some fairly regular blogging while recuperating.

  13. Hope all goes well and you are back with us quickly :)

    Hmmm...what should your dear Rare One be given during this time? I offer a bottle of Excedrin and her favourite alcohol (both are optional) along with a lovely little brass hammer to go with your bell ;)

    You will be missed until you return.
