Hello fellow bloggers hope you are all warm enough today, it’s probably not the warmest day of the year and it was definitely a cold start this morning. On the drive this morning the temperature just about managed to reach 0C, most of the time it was well below zero and I think we are for more of the same tonight.

I think I made my colleagues day this morning when I returned to work, some of them weren’t expecting me back. I also returned to my first ear bending of this job, when I failed to update a document that I was actioned in on. Well it wasn’t that I didn’t update it, it was I didn’t update with all the correct information. Oh well never mind it happens sometimes.

I have now been home for a couple of hours; my trip to the hospital did not go according to plan. After checking in and meeting my named nurse I went through the usual routine, blood pressure, pulse, temperature and the all the questions that they have asked many times before. I spent the next 4 hours lying on a hospital waiting for my turn to go under the knife. Only to be told that they would have to cancel my operation due to my surgeon being called away on an emergency.

I fully understand the situation and am not really unhappy about it, but they have now booked me a new date the 23^rd, it was that other wise they couldn’t give a date so it looks like being a great Christmas for me. Emergency happen and they can’t do anything about, but me and the lady in the bed next to me who was also sent home are just a little disappointed.

Today the day of my hernia operation and even though it’s a minor operation I still find myself a little apprehensive, I now that thousands of operations are carried out each that and there is nothing to worry about but this time its me that going under the knife. In point of fact this is not my first operation I have been there before and it is only minor. But as I sit here contemplating the next few hours, my mind wanders to many children who I have been on TV with many different ailments and have endured hundreds of major operations between them and I understand how lucky I am and I know that every thing will be ok.

Oh well I will catch you all later have a great day; I will be back later with the latest news.
