I don’t believe it…. I never get colds and rarely get ill, but so far this autumn I seem to have had one really bad cold after another and once again I feel as though I’m dying! The only explanation I can think of is that Morgan catches them at nursery and brings them home to me. If that is the case then all I can say is I feel for him as ii isn’t surprising he gets a little grumpy now and then if he feels anything like I do.<\/p>\n

I’m going to have to battle on though. Being self-employed means I don’t get the luxuries of sick pay and holiday pay, so I can’t afford not to go to work. Sitting in front of the computer doing website design isn’t too bad. I can even put the wood-burning stove on, make myself a nice mug of honey and lemon and take my laptop into the living room where I can… work from the comfort of the sofa… Thanks to the wonders of wireless broadband. <\/p>\n

However, today is my day of outdoor work, mowing lawns, cutting down trees and other gardening chores… I shall have to see how I go, but I’m sure it won’t do me much good the way I’m feeling this morning.<\/p>\n

I think I have given my cold to Anna’s Mum as well who is off home to the Isle of Man today… No doubt she’ll be taking some of my bugs with her to infect the island with!…. Unlcean, Keep Away!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
