Hello.
Greetings from the world of flannel jammies, big thick socks and fluffy red dressing gowns. In short my sick bed.
Of course this is exactly what I'd planned for this half term week anyway but I hadn't factored in the sneezing, sniffing, shivers and mountain of tissues I'm going through. I guess I didn't escape the virulent lurgi that Expecto expectorated all over me last Monday and I have succumbed to my first cold of the season.
It's a bit unfortunate as I had planned to wrestle the WIP to the ground and beat it into shape this week. But right now my back aches and I'm freezing so I think I might go back to bed.
Oh sod! I have to walk the dog.
OK first I'll walk the dog - then I'll get back into bed. Bum! I have to feed the kids.
OK first I'll feed the kids, then I'll walk the dog - then I'll go back to bed. Bugger! I'm still in my Jammies.
OK first I'll get dressed, then I'll feed the kids, then I'll walk the dog - then I'll go back to bed. Except I really need a shower.
I can't be bothered. Today is going to be a stinky day.
Be thankful the internet hasn't smellivision. I will go off and get well before bothering you with pointless posts again..

Aw, poor poppet, told you should have got that Poppin's brolly - and yes, coated in Vicks too! Do so hope you will be better soon and glad to see that your sense of humour is holding up despite snot, sniffing, coughing and hacking!
Oh no! Expecto's germs have invaded. Sorry to hear that.
Motherhood and illness just don't get along, do they? Loved your thought process! LOL
Hopefully you'll be back in bed in no time. And maybe someone will bring you a cup of tea... (one can always hope...)
Feel better Janey!
Poor Janey, I hope you get better soon!
Hope you recover from your current mucus onslaught...
Some days you just gotta go with the stinky! That way when you finally do shower, you feel so much better!
Take care and feel better soon!
Oh, sweetie. Wasn't it nice in the good old days when you could simply hunker down and love on your sick-infested self? I remember those times...
Damn. They are SO over now.
Anyway, feel better!!
AV I'm happy to report the spirits are good and I'm looking into buying full Haz-mat gear for work.
Thanks Aine I didn't get back to bed yesterday but my lovely daughter did make me some tea which is always nice.
Thanks Natalie and mega thanks for boosting the numbers. Tell me - did you do the anime for OTF?
Me too Whirl. Mucus is a rather brilliant word isn't it? So onamatopoeic. - Are you back from swinging your kilt?
Ello I agree 100%. I'm not all that stinky really - but my hair? now that is forcing me under a deluge of water as I type. (Better put the Hubby's Mac Notebook down quick!)
Robin real life insists on encroaching when all I want to do is sleep. I'm lucky that my kids are good at amusing themselves but I'm always on call for emergencies like finding the tiniest, minutest piece of Lego in the world because Small Son's space ship won't fly without it.
Finding toys is the bane of my existence, Janey.
And someday, in some cosmic way, I'm sure we'll be repayed for all of those sick days we still had to work, since mommies NEVER get time off.
I hope you're feeling better today.
Janey- I finally did your tag deal.
Sorry it took me so long!
Hope you're feeling better!
