This is going to be a very short update!
I woke up on Friday with a sniffle, nothing to right home about just an annoying sniffle. I wasn’t going to let it affect my weekend. On Friday afternoon, I was out with the rest of my team for lunch and bowling. It was lovely, I suck at bowling and got the lowest score in the team, it’s a good job I’m not as competitive as some of the others in the team.
After that, I went to Ma’s for Friday Night Pizza.
Ma also had an annoying sniffle but we had an action packed weekend planned. Then Zipcar called to tell us that we couldn’t have the car we had booked because someone had put petrol in a diesel car! So no Ikea trip, no big grocery shop, no trip to the dump. We thought that we’d have haircuts and then go to the cinema.
On Saturday morning, we both woke up with matching colds. We did get haircuts but Jane (who cuts my hair) said she knew I was ill because I did not enjoy having my hair done at all.
I went home and to bed. There I have stayed. There was no Grace, no housework, no moving the books for next week’s planned painting, it was a complete washout of a weekend!
I’m still in bed with an infected throat, having to gargle with soluble asprin, which tastes nasty but does work!
