Temperature’s rising
Apologies for the tumbleweeds blowing through my blog this month. NaNoWriMo gave way to the flu and even when I’ve had an idea to blog the combination of hiding under the duvet and blogging aren’t always mutually compatible. My sister has just been round to feed me and drop off essential supplies – milk so I can keep myself in warm cups of tea, grapes because they have too many at their house (though it does nicely fit with the theme of being ill) and of course chocolate.
I did attempt going back into work for two days this week, but I wasn’t holding up so well with the aches and struggling to concentrate. My boss suggested (read ‘rearranged my Thursday morning meeting’) to go to the doctors. It turned out I still very much had the flu and was ordered back home to bed. Apparently going back to work before your properly better means a second week of high temperatures and needing to sleep after just a few minutes of any physical activity.
It’s been nearly two weeks since I started feeling off and I’m really quite ready to reenter the world of the living. Unfortunately my body is not in agreement with this and this morning I woke up still feeling like I done a few rounds in a boxing ring. I really need to learn how to improve my attitude towards being ill and resting (thanks to Phil* for the comment “I reckon the only way to get you on the mend is to place you in a medically induced coma for the weekend”)
All I can say is thank goodness for the Gilmore Girls
*Phil has just started his very own blog so this is an opportune moment to suggest that you should now go and read his first post.
Glad to see you are on the road to recovery.
