I've been in bed for a couple of days, and just hardly functioning.. its really knocked me off my feet this dose.
I've only had it about 3 times in my life i think, so thats once every 11 years :p
But now with kids to look after.. i really should get the flu vaccine next winter i think.. unlike a cold where you can function and muddle through, the flu literally floored me. i was in bed for 2 days solid, having hot sweats and weird dreams and just in such a state, too weak to get out of bed, just about managing to make it to the toilet.. i was a state for about a week.
now i feel like i have a bad cold, which isn't great and i haven't left the house since Wednesday last week! But i feel so much better that i did.
Worst bit now is the cough that i have, my whole body aches when i cough - and i cough ALL the time. Miles and Greta have the cough too.. its waking them both up over night, poor little mites.
Greta has been very tired and has been very clingy, not jut clingy but sobs her heart out ALL day, literally from the moment she wakes up till bed time.. i guess she just feels ill bless her.. but its not easy when im feeling like crap myself and trying to to look after the 2 of them.
Jonathan did a stirling job of looking after them. He took a few days off work, doesn't get paid if he doesn't work but not much we could do, we don't have anyone else who can help out.. so he helped out with the kids.
I got up on sunday after 2 solid days in bed, and was shocked that the house was quite well looked after, well i mean by my standards it was trashed but i thought it would be far worse.
Miles is a neat freak but Greta likes to go through the cupboards and toss everything out so you need to been following her round the house picking up after her and although im used to it and do it without thinking i know her Daddy doesn't.. but he did a good job.
He went back to work yesterday and i got the vacuum out and had a good tidy, still need to mop and dust but at least its looking a lot better.
Hope this chesty cough clears im sick of coughing and everything aches :(
little pitty party lol.
So Jonathan's last day is thursday and then he starts his new job on Monday :) he is very excited. He went in yesterday to meet his new PA and all that kinda stuff and he is very excited to begin on Monday.
That means we thought we would have a nice weekend away this weekend. He fancied a weekend away before he started his new job and with me being sick last weekend, it leaves only this weekend..
Hunter Valley we are thinking of going to anyway. I fancy taking the kids to Story book Gardens: http://www.hvg.com.au/storybook-garden
We can pick Miles up from Pre-school on Friday and then off we go :)
looking forward to it, just hope this cough subsides for the 3 of us!
In other news.
i got the Foxtell swithched back on,..i was on to a loosing battle with them, i was 1005 sure i had paid the amount they said i owed - long long story... and they said no i haven;t, so sick of them so i paid it again and was so fed up of them! so we got the Foxtel back on... then i was going to go into a store and ask to see all our records so i could prove i had paid it - and today i received a cheque from them!
So i guess i had paid them after all idiots! So they left us with no Foxtel of phone line for almsot a week for something we had already paid... not happy!!
Think we are going to keep the Jeep for a while... the Grand Jeep we wanted in diesel isn;t out in the country yet, so might as well just wait till its out and go test drive it. I looked at a couple others, Subaru and another one but nothing compares for me.. i love my Jeeps.
Worked out a plan to pay off the last of the balloon payment we have to pay on our current Jeep, they we own it. So can keep that as a 2nd car for jonathan and go and get me a new one. Probably not till after Christmas now - Will make to as we are for now.
Thats about it.
