op over

had my gallblader removed on thursday 10th june and came home on the 11th. I have to take it easy for 6 weeks no housework etc. I am very sore but all went well so Ill be fit again for the wedding in aug. Been looking at machine quilting frames hubby is going to make one for me so hes off to the builders suppliers this morning to ge the wood etc. He watched a few videos of people who build their own and decided to do it himself dont know how much itll cost yet but I dont think itll be anywhere near 699 sterling plus shipping after that hoping to get it all done for under 150 euro. Its great when you only have to pay for materials as hubby wolnt charge for his time (ha ha) So as i am recovering from my op for the nxt 6 weeks all I can do is watch tv. read and suref the net and oh yes give instructions to the kids and hubby on the housework.
