Poorly Thursday

Monday was awful at work.  We'd had a power cut over the weekend, which I discovered on Monday morning.  For the first few hours, we had to relocate to an area where there were working PC's but still no lights.  After a couple of hours staring at the screen with minimal daylight so it was pretty dark against the glare of the screen, I had a banging headache which lasted the whole day.  I went to bed at 8pm.

Tuesday, we had power but I still loathed being there, I still had a headache but I'm not sure I wasn't imagining it.  Wednesday was my Friday, I was in a good mood but expected the day to drag like it had on Tuesday.  It didn't, 7-11 practically whizzed by and I slipped out for my coffee, (which I'm trying to give up,) at 11.20am.  At around 1pm, I started to develop the first signs of a cold and sore throat, just in time for my long awaited night out and 4 day weekend. 

I got home at 4.30, drugged up with Day Nurse, glammed up and have to admit, despite the cold, I was feeling pretty glamorous by the time I headed out.  (Plain, but bright red linen top, black linen trousers, bright red sandals, I got told I looked tiny!... I'm not really.)

S, T, A, S, D were all there, it was lovely to catch up and hear about every one's lives and in particular, T & A's latest antics, some things never change... I mean that in a good way.

I got home late, 11.20, so I was really tired having been up since 4am, I just had a coffee and some Night Nurse and went to bed.  Woke at 6.30am this morning and I'm feeling a bit rough.  Not hung over rough, (I'm sure they're watering the wine down,) but I have a really sore throat, swollen glands and a sniffy nose.  No workout for me this morning, I decided my body was suffering enough.  I envisioned doing my, "something different," this morning but, the weather is terrible, it's blowing a gale, cold, and raining heavily.  I just don't think the legs would carry me today so I'm in my usual haunt, frozen but think that's more me rather than the air con.

I have nothing planned except washing, ironing, DIY and a little gardening and hopefully... an early night to try to sleep this off.  All that, and it's still only Friday tomorrow, I may even feel better by the weekend!
