markettech 2 Posted May 12, 2013 I organized the garage, cleaned out my service van, ran some controls related service calls (under the radar), irritated the heck out of the wife.......that's about it so far. Hopefully I get clearance to return to work at next Wednesday's post-op Dr. visit.......I'm goin' nuts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JonnyZ 3 Posted May 12, 2013 I was sleeved last Wednesday and I'm really bored already. My kids are keeping me busy though and are happy I'm home more. I haven't been sleeping the same since before surgery so I.have even more time being up early everyday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chinamama 104 Posted May 12, 2013 If you can afford it you could always take a vacation..... Even if its a stay-cation and explore your town. That way you would be moving your body. We all wish for time to do things in life, but when we get the time we sometimes forget what we wanted to do. Have fun! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
antitoni 1 Posted May 12, 2013 What did everyone do while off work? I was off for a month. Took the maximum days allowed by my employer. Stayed in town, but ran errands and got a lot of personal things done. I go back tomorrow. Figured I would be okay since my employer supplies me with most of what I need.
