Yay winter!
OJ makes me phlegmy, which kind of sucks a bit when you have a killer cold and are trying to boost up on vitamin C, and all you get is orange tasting phlegm, and a choking sensation, which causes you to cough uncontrollably for 5 minutes, with noone around to symapthise, or at least pat you on your back. Needless to say, I am enjoying the first day of my week off. I told you I am doomed with bad luck. My first proper holiday (even though it is at home) in 1 1/2 years (the other days I have had off were for study), and I'm lying in a heap rather resembling my pile of used tissues-pale, crumpled and slightly full of snot.
So, what's new. As usual nothing, apart from this panicky feeling I have as I haven't finished my new coursework, let alone start any of the assignments I oh so diligently signed up for. The assignments are only due end of January, but I have procrastinated so much with them, and have enjoyed coming home from a hard days work and doing nothing, that I can see myself forgetting about them, and suddenly realising I only have a week left. I MUST make a start at one of them tomorrow. I want to have one of them completed by the end of this week off, which at the moment does not seem likely as I can hardly look at words and my eyes start watering, and then the nose goes, and I start sneezing.
On a lighter note......I get a whole week to watch "Murder, She Wrote", with my heroine Jessica Fletcher. Caroline will know what I'm on about. I still test our theory by the way...(the 20 minutes,20 minutes, 5 minutes one!). I managed to give the house a good clean, despite me feeling rotten, which is one thing off my list. Now I can concentrate on a) getting better so I can enjoy my Christmas party this weekend, b) finish my assignment, and c) bask in Angela Lansbury's glory (all hail the Fletch).
Enough of that, must return to the realm of real life now. Will maybe do a snow dance later, and possibly write an email to the special Birthday girl for tomorrow..........
