Thread: Off work for three more weeks

Yes pay attention to the advice from a doctor.
If they say six weeks -- believe them.

Boxers have a rule of thumb... 1% a day for cuts
incurred in the ring to heal. About three+ months.

I can tell you from experience that tearing stitches
is not a good idea.

I know when I have jack to do and I want to feel good about wasting time, I pull out a cigar. Short of that... I climb the walls too.

Hope you have cable man - hope you recover soon!

Not a big TV guy really. I have enough razors to keep me busy and my brother-in-law in Oregon wants to send me his 6-7 razors to clean up and hone and a friend I recently got hooked on straight razors has three or four he wants to send me. Heck I should be able to hone like Lynn and Glen by then huh? Not!

I always follow doctors orders for something like this as I understand why they want you to rest.
I research everything so I have read up quit a bit on hernia surgery. I should have been a researcher.

Well, there are always books and libraries. Speedy recovery.

And if you want suggestions for good books; here are some links:
A good book

Thanks Otto. I have hundreds of books on my Kindle but I have just not been in a reading mood.
