Cold

Its been a while since I last put anything on my blog, but ohhh boy have I got some stuff to put on there now!!

Last weekend I was thrilled to find out that I had got a head cold, and I felt terrible. I don’t often get colds like that so it I must admit I was feeling quite sorry for myself. Not being able to breathe, sneezing constantly and also an incessant sore throat – just fantastic!

This all happened on Sunday, then on Monday I felt even worse and didn’t manage to go into work – couldn’t even manage inane TV for the day URGH!! Didn’t even feel like switching the computer on! (WHAT? That’s unheard of!) Watched an old episode of Cagney and Lacey on cable though – how good was that show!? I had forgotten.

What is it about colds…… you sneeze all the time, and then, when you think you’re going to sneeze you don’t. You then do the “huh, huh, huh” and then nothing happens. Your eyes begin to water, your nose then runs, then blocks up and then finally does that thing that feels like clingfilm being continuously stretched to a point where you know its going to give and create a small hole in the middle to let some air through. Of course, when this does finally happen you have those wonderful few moments where you can breathe – ohhh it feels fantastic, and then arrrgh one side is blocked again….. back to bunged up.

Well, all I have to say is thank goodness it was this week and not next when we are away.

Rob was not too happy with my ailments and I think he would have had me locked in the conservatory with a red cross on the door and sign saying “unclean” if he could of. This, obviously didn’t happen and so now of course, he now has THE cold, 2nd edition and naturally far more deadly – marvellous!
