I am at home recovering at the moment from surgery repairing my 'handle bar hernia' and the other (congenital) hernia that the surgeon found while operating.

It's been a week so far, and walking up the stairs each day is my exercise, and walking to the end of the road and back. I wonder how long it will take until I become ancy and grumpy. It's been snowing for days... can't wait to try out the new snowshoes! Will have to wait until the 24th to get the ok.
