......if i become even more annoying than usual

I've had a relapse and unfortunately Keely is now going to work with OH on alternate days to take a bit of pressure off me for a few weeks.  I'm kinda restricted and cant really go out much just now so i've become a forum stalker as there's nothing else to occupy my mind.  So far this morning i've gone through all of my (3000ish) photos of Kintra and Keely but have tried to resist boring everyone with my whole photo album, cleared out all of my email folders, cleared all the rubbish out of my digibox drive, and watched the neighbour's cat stalking a blackbird on and off for approx 20 minutes.  I'm also tryng to resist posting stupid responses to other people cool threads and photos (have been a little unsuccessful with that!).

Please, if anyone needs any letters written, application forms completed, codebreaking, will updated, internet searches, or ANYTHING at all that i can do online, i'll do it for free. 

Or if anyone can come up with ideas for entertaining Keely without me having to move around too much, that would also be greatly appreciated

I hear they need people with computers to de-code space sounds

Feel better soon

Hang in there and I am sure it will get easier... but probably worst before getting better...

Nothing worst than being bored! Just do whatever you have to and can do to stay occupied...

I play a lot of solataire! I do 2 suite spider!

Oh that evil boredom. I find myself researching vacations we can't take which never seems to make me feel better...so scratch that.

As for entertaining Keely, I actually managed to rest on a towel at the beach yesterday without having to entertain Bella. Why? She was having an absolute blast hunting and chasing flies :) Do they sell flies online? ;)

Hope you feel better soon. It stinks when you don't feel well.

As for Keely, if you have an indoor type ball, toss it for her. Since you can't move around allot she will have to bring it to you if she wants it tossed again. You will be surprised at how quickly she will catch on to the game. I have also found that my shorthairs just seem to know when I am not feeling well and will curl up with me on the bed and watch old movies with me.

Feel better! I find our dogs tend to behave pretty well if I'm couching it. I get a few jabs of paws in my face or muzzles in my face to wake me up. If you can toss a small ball around from laying down on the couch that might tire her out after about 50 times - we have to do that with Windsor pretty much every night - that is his "cranky time" - every night between 8 and 9 p.m. Then he passes out real good.

I'll be getting gallbladder surgery soon and I'm worried about rainy days with the dogs inside - I hear it hurts the first few days. Maybe they can eat the painkillers I get to have so they will zonk out also - just kidding LOL :)

Thanks for the sympathy and ideas, guys! Feeling a little better today (it's pretty random and unpredictable) so took her out for a long walk.  I keep forgetting that they can be quite forgiving though when you're not feeling too good.  In hindsight, Keely actually kept herself pretty amused on the days i've had her since not feeling too great, she's a wee star  You're right though, during the crappy days i can probably get away with playing with her toys with her, interspersed with chews, goats milk, and hiding cheese around the garden for her!

Smylinacha - so sorry to hear that you're going in for surgery.  If you're trying to keep your mind off feeling bad when you're recuperating i'll probably be on here skulking around feeling sorry for myself if you want some online company

Glad to hear you are feeling a little better today. Wish I had some suggestions to help. My crew usually stay pretty quiet when I'm not feeling well. Thank you Lord. Positive thoughts that you'll be feeling much better soon.

I'm all for recovering - I'll get to be out of work for a few days - that's what counts! I just gotta keep Velvet from jumping on me. Or that could get me out of work even longer :)

I had my gall bladder out about 8 years ago. It actually was pretty easy. The hardest part was I would get tired in the afternoons, but my doctor said that was the anesthesia. I went back to work 2 days after surgery, and the surgery was done as outpatient surgery. Good luck with your surgery.
