Peter’s Hospital Diary

I arrived home on Friday evening to lots of hustle and bustle for the first family event of the season, with the children’s cousins coming to visit yesterday. They duly turned up for lunch (14 round the table!) and the family “Secret Santa” event afterwards. Those that stayed went out into town later and had […]

I am back at work (a silly o’clock start this morning) after my two days of ECP, and a not particularly brilliant weekend suffering from snuffles, headaches etc – which thankfully seem to be getting better! However Felicity did sterling work in getting the Christmas tree up and decorated. ECP itself was uneventful in the […]

Prophetic words last week, as youngest daughter hit a patch of black ice, skidded into a field and hit a tree a glancing blow. Fortunately she was unhurt, and the car was drivable, but although there was no structural damage, investigation showed that it would need even more work (in addition to the repairs) to […]

I am slowly getting back into the week ending routine! I was able to leave work relatively early on Friday, so I was home by 5:30 – on with the washing machine and unwind! Yesterday morning was spent doing some of the admin stuff followed by a trip to the shops to do those things […]

I’m still having difficulties with e-mail at the hotel – partly because the room this week is further from the Wi-Fi access point – so I will have to go to the bar (!) to pick them up! However I have got the IT system at work working – hence the update! Last night was […]

It feels strange to be week-ending again – in fact the first time I have done it since I started writing the blog, although prior to 2006 it was pretty much the norm. So all the usual ‘home’ activities have to be packed into the weekend. Yesterday morning I had the car serviced, and made […]

I have finally managed to connect to the hotel’s Wi-Fi network – only taken two days to get the laptop connected, although the PDA connected almost immediately! The hotel is near the office, and more convenient than travelling backwards and forwards each day. I seem to be settling in, the project is interesting, so I […]

Lots of changes this week, and I did start a post on Thursday, but didn’t get round to finishing it! I had my monthly dose of ECP on Monday and Tuesday, followed by a quick call in at the day unit at Guy’s for another NPA, then it was back home for an early night […]

Phew – busy week! First thing on the agenda was to complete my coursework. which should have been submitted last Sunday. However I was given a week’s extension while I was in hospital, and I finished it this evening. The other activity has been the preparations for the new job, which I hope will be […]

Back home again, and in fact I was actually discharged on Monday, and arrived home in the evening, but yesterday seemed to go in a haze of catching up on the last week, and I felt surprisingly weak, so I didn’t get round to the blog! Many thanks to Mark for posting the update, I […]
