6 weeks
6 weeks today since my last brandy and Diet Coke. Weekends are a quiet time for me compared to the rest of the week when work, family etc usually have me kept busy. I live alone so the weekends can be lonely (not all the time, sometimes I have my grandson to stay and that is a joy) but sometimes it seems hard to fill the time when that’s not the case. Post op means I am unable to drive for another 2 weeks so today I am musing on how to make the weekends a more pleasurable time for me, things I can do to help fill the hours. Cooking nice food, watching some classic old films from the 70’s, long walks when I am fully recovered from the op. Long baths with classical music, good books, Sunday morning coffee outdoors somewhere. Turning the weekend lonely hours to a positive time to focus on myself seems like the way to go. I’ll keep working on that list.
