Update

Well, this month has been a bit of a dead loss, but I've only myself to blame really. I adore the social side of Christmas - less so the planning - especially since COVID blew our office working patterns out of the water. Alas, I am very good at ignoring my body until I'm actually dropping with exhaustion. Yes, it's just a very nasty head cold but I was washing hankies at quite a rate for a while there... thank goodness the Cog has a drawerful, I only have one gents pack I picked up at M&S and some "girly" sized ones that are fine when you DON'T have a cold! I kept thinking I was getting better, when in actuality I was making it take longer because I felt obliged to attend a few things I'd booked (and also I wanted to go, I can't completely blame others for my pig-headedness!). It's also very hard to rest at home when the house looks like Xmas exploded in it. Consequently I've been off sick for about a week, and although I probably could work from home tomorrow, nobody will be in the mood to do much anyway, those that aren't already on holiday. I'm currently ok as long as I stay still, moving about I've got a woozy head, and still a bit of an annoying cough, but at least the nose factory has powered down and it's only been from the chest up. I'm also napping randomly, my body is taking charge for a change, so I'll step back from driving for a bit and see how we go.

Good job I had no plans to do any Xmas knitting/crochet at least!

Best wishes to all and here's hoping for a peaceful, brighter New Year. 

Current mood: exhausted
