I'm home! Thanks for all the well wishes from everyone on here, especially [MENTION=20]Solitude[/MENTION], [MENTION=2399]czc[/MENTION], [MENTION=2530]Wyvern[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4071]BeoTeK[/MENTION]. I really appreciate the support.
I just had the most fantastic lunch - toast with Darling Sweet original toffee spread. And a mug of tea. The hospital food wasn't really that bad (the little I could eat due to "nil by mouth" before surgery and pain that stole my appetite), I guess I just missed eating in my own home out of my own plate and drinking from my own mug. Come to think of it, I'm going to have another mug of tea, just because I can make it myself. Then I'm going to catch up on all my work emails and have a nap... Tomorrow I can be the programming force to be reckoned with that I usually am, but for now I feel like a sick old man who wants to sip tea and stare at the birds nesting in the trees.
