Finally got my little office set up here at the hospital and have been getting some work done. I’m really recovering fast from this operation, even though I was slit open from sternum to pubes again. Considering it’s been less than 48 hours since the op I think I’m doing very well.
The doctor said this morning that I should try to be up and about as much as possible and so as soon as they got me off the morphine and removed the catheter I was able to move around. I just have a saline/antibiotic drip to move around with me on a wheelie pole and the icky drainage bag hanging off my belly, but compared to all the tubes I had me when I woke up from the op, this is nothing.
I just caught up on emails and have had more tapas tour requests. Also had to get in touch with the tours I have booked for Saturday, Monday and Tuesday to see if the clients would mind going out with Peter, and they are fine with that so at least they still get a tour and I don’t lose any money. I might actually be well enough to go out on the Tuesday one – hope so!
Feeling okay, but a bit depressed by all of this. Out of the blue I am back in hospital and hating it, worrying about Azar at home (he’s blocked up again) and generally wondering how I’m going to keep things together, including myself. But I’m very grateful for all the company online here at casa az and on Twitter.
Well, think I’ll take a wee siesta now. Not much else to do…

… and from me, too. Thank GOD for modern technology so you can actually get some work done from the hospital! Too bad you can’t do the Tapas Tours from bed. too. Perhaps you could add some sort of “historically themed” tour where you and your guests are carried from venue to venue on litters? Possibly in costume? It would certainly set you apart from “the competition”.

Love mudhooks’s idea! A red velvet sedan chair with gold brocade and lots of tassels would be ideal. Get two strapping lads who usually carry a Semana Santa float to take you around. Or perhaps just go for the whole Virgen de la Macarena vibe with your own float, thousands of candles etc.

I’m so glad to hear you’re better. Have a speedy recovery, and take things easy for a while. *hug*

I like the sedan chair too. And I am hoping for a good poo for Azar — can Nog handle giving him a kitty enema?

Nog and the Poo. I think you should write a little kids story while you’re in there.

Hi Shawn,
Thinking of you, and glad you can be connected from your hospital bed! It’s really good that you’re up so soon after the surgery – bodes well for the rest of your recovery.

I second that — that you’re up so soon is really good. It’s good you’re able to work, but PLEASE don’t overdo it. Too much work, even work you love, will stress you out.
