.... I am going to be frantically moving house. All the furniture, white goods, bedrooms and kitchen will have to be in and set up before Friday morning.
I get the keys at 9-30 tomorrow and then it's on!

Depending on what happens with my operation on Friday, I may be back up and about within a day, or I may be down for a few days to a week. We won't know till they cut me (it could be a simple excision, or if there are no clear margins the surgeon will also take lymph glands from both sides of my neck for testing which is a much bigger op.)

So my new apartment has to be set up or the kidley will be in hell trying to sort it all out by himself.

I am sitting here in a kind of limbo right now. Everything that can be, has been packed and the car is already loaded so when I get the keys I can go straight there with the first lot.
But until tomorrow morning, I have nothing else I can do.
Waiting, waiting.....

You don't have a million friends with trucks to help?
 
What the hell are "white goods"?

Fridge, freezer, washer, dryer....
You don't call them that?

Appliances, otoh, are things like microwave, tv, etc.
Then there's furniture - beds dressers sofa, etc.

Funny how different countries call stuff!

haha-- I was wrong! :eek:

nope, they're just appliances, I think... :rolleyes:

a tv would be considered 'electronics.'


in case I don't make it by again, best wishes for your operation to go quickly and smoothly,

and for your recovery as well! {{{hug}}}

Thanx :)
I'm going to be so freaking busy, at least my mind won't be on the op for the next couple of days!

Every electronics store I've worked at calls the kitchen appliances plus TV's over 42" White Goods" perhaps you've just thrown truck in your lifetime.
 
It's good to see that your life is becoming more calm :eek:

The move was planned, but the surgery waan't.
I had taken a.week off for the move. Now I have to get the bulk of it done before this unexpected op!
So long as the main stuff is done we'll be fine.
And I now have 2 weeks off, but may need more. Or not :)
 
Of course you'll have full Internet connectivity through all of this....

I should bloody well hope so! I live in a decent-sized town and my phone is my lifeline to family!
But I know what you mean :eek:
For most of the move, my main role is to drive the car and trailer back and forth. I have strong young sons and their friends to do the heavy stuff.
And I have to set up the kitchen so it's useable.

Friday, I will be offline in the afternoon. The op is at 1-30pm.

Does that answer any questions?

WQ if they tell you to lie low after surgery do it! If they say go back to your regular activities, go over your regular activities with them and make sure.

I have found that my "regular activities" are much more active than most doctors imagine.

How big is a decent sized town there, by the way?

I think we have a population around 150,000 in the town itself and greater region (big farming area so I'm counting town plus about 30km radius) This is the second-largest town in the state.
Yeah - I've been told to expect a bit of a headache for a few days while my scalp stretches to accommodate the bit they have to cut out. More pain if it's necessary to go after lymph glands.

Hey... I just had a thought!
When they stretch the skin to bring the edges together, maybe I'll lose some wrinkles for a while! :D
 
I have an hour and 1/2 before I can get the keys.
Everything is ready and I am sitting here twiddling my thumbs :eek:
 
Kitchen set up. Bathroom set up. Loungeroom done.
Bedrooms have beds and a shitload of boxes!
Everything else can wait for now.

No doubt I'll be fiddling with the kitchen for a while yet...
 
I am.so fucking tired, I'm over-tired :rolleyes:
Trying desperately to sleep for the last hour and it's not working, so I have got up again.
