They've been doing some kind of major utility upgrade in my neighborhood for the last several months. Laying fiber? I dunno. The point is, for the last week or so they've been in and out of my backyard specifically. And now they are doing something with the little pole-in-the-ground-doohickey that involves digging around it, and in order to do that they are having to clear out most of the horrible crappy overgrowth that's taken over that portion of the yard.
Yessss.... Our eight-year "just ignore it" plan is finally coming to fruition... |

I'm out of hospital.
Bad news is I have to go back in, in approx 2 weeks to have some more banding of my varices (Wiki link SFW but has internal photo which might be considered grim and/ or look like something else!) and this will continue until they are all gone. But at least I will not be woken up at 04.00 for a blood test, or at 06.45 to have my blood pressure/ temperature taken. The good thing about hospital of course is that it is clean, warm, light and you get three meals a day with no cooking or washing up. But after eight days I was pretty much ready to leave.

How many times will you have to have that banding done? Or don't they know. Hopefully they'll get every thing squared away soon. In spite of all the upsides you mentioned, it's still nice to get home where you can scratch any itch without checking to see if anyone's watching.
8 days? Nope, no way. Well one way, unconscious. Other than that, I have witnesses who can attest to after three days I become quite unpleasant. Really, I know it's had to imagine but it's true. Picture ripping out an IV, and telling the nurse on the desk, "If anybody is looking for me, I went home", as I walked by.

Is it wrong that I'm happy my little kids are leaving for a holiday with their father for a week starting in about half an hour?
I am anyway. I need a break. After I delivery the wedding order I have for Saturday, I don't have anything else to do till the following Thursday, which means 4 days of slothing around mostly. I might even go get a pedicure.

If they don't leave, you don't get that huggy-poo, kissy-face, party when they return.
