And I am not sure I will ever get round to it since I am too busy trying to keep up with all your reviews! What are you doing Brenda? Did you save them all up for today?

Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9987 comments Took DH up to St George Private this morning to have his heart ablated. What I know at this point is that he is back in CCU, but still groggy. I will ring later to chat with him. They will keep him overnight and if all is well, I will collect him tomorrow.
I am assuming that all went well, but I'll find out more later, I guess.

I hope all is well with him Marianne:) Thought of him this morning and hoped it would be a successful day for you both!


message 21009: by Marianne (new)

Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9987 comments Thanks.
I have these two extra days off work (apart from the driving up and down) and have used the time to do some chores, although I am finding it very hard to stay away from Pretty Girls by Karin Slaughter
Now I am going to hang out some washing, then write a review and post a few....

I wondered that too Marianne! Just thought they'd got the date wrong here:)

Carolyn | 9868 comments I thought of you this morning Marianne and hoped your DH was still on the list for his ablation this morning. Glad to hear he is back in the ward recovering. Hope all is well and he has no more problems. Good thing you have a good book to distract you from worrying :)

B the BookAddict (bthebookaddict) Did anyone watch Q&A this week, the anti-poverty speaker/author Linda Tirado packed a solid punch with her intelligent comments re Aust following USA. She has a book Hand to Mouth: Living in Bootstrap America.

Books certainly help

Nice to have you back. Sounds like you now need some reading and chat time Suzanne.


message 21040: by Suz (new)

Suz | 4436 comments Thanks Dale! Thought I'd read for a little while before picking up little man from pre school. I think the vacuuming can wait?!


message 21041: by Sally906 (new)

Sally906 | 89 comments Vacuuming can always wait IMHO :)


message 21042: by Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen (new)

Brenda | 80169 comments Mod
Nice you've had some visitors Suzanne:) But of course reading is much more important than vacuuming!
