Things Ricky Bought Today

[jeshyr]

I may have possibly spent quite a lot of money while I was out today...

Well, OK, I did spend a lot of money. My savings account is wincing as I type. This is very unusual behaviour for frugal me!

What did I buy ... umm ... I'm not telling prices but in descending order of expensiveness:
- New glasses and frames (necessary, although I could have got cheaper frames the ones I got are ones I really like and glasses matter)
- A battery powered wifi modem so I can use my iPad while I'm in hospital (definitely a luxury!)
- [ censored ] (This one's a secret today, as is the reason why it's secret. I'll tell you all tomorrow night :))
- Toiletries bag (handy for hospital)
- New watch battery (necessary)
- Part of my Dad's birthday present (very necessary!)
- Assortment of MSG-free nibbly things (handy for hospital)
- Some kitchen sponges and other tiny miscellanea we needed.

I had LOTS of fun, and the only bit I'm seriously thinking "Hrm, this wasn't needed..." is the wifi modem, which I have not yet opened for that reason. I am sure I could get my money's worth out of it, but it is a luxury...

I may have partially been shopping to distract myself from being nervous about my hernia operation on Friday. But mostly, it was fun!

Hugs,

hernia operation? i don't remember you mentioning any hernia operation! i do hope it's the new kind of minimally-invasive "out in a day or two" surgery.

(on the other flipper, i'm glad at the implication that you're well enough so that having an operation isn't going to incapacitate you for the next six months.)

*hugs*

p.s. - every time i hear the song "Your Personal Penguin", i think of you :-)

Nothing like shopping to distract yourself. I am an expert at that!

That wi-fi modem

Hi Ricky,

I'm sure if Jessie was still around, she'd say that a device that could keep you in touch with the world while in hospital was a very sound investment.
