Pewari’s Prattle: Aspiring to Randomness Since 2003

Empty Weekend

26th November 2005 · 3 Comments

Woke up this morning with the sore throat from hell and feeling all groggy. As both Li’l Bhaji and Akra Jr have had The Cold[tm] this week and suffered greatly, I’ve let Akra go with the boys up to Blackburn this weekend (for my older nephew’s birthday and my younger nephew’s christening) while I stay here to recuperate and hopefully not infect anybody.

So, the weekend stretches before me. This should be luxurious – no kids, on my own, nothing particularly needing to get done in a hurry (well, okay, there’s a chore list three miles long but I’m conveniently ignoring that). Only problem is, I don’t feel well enough to really appreciate it.

I have ventured out this morning though. Popped into Tescos; bought milk, a paper and some sore-throat-friendly ready meals – that should carry me through and allow me to hibernate over the next two days. Well… you have to make the most of these opportunities, don’t you?!

    I don’t know! Any bug doing the rounds and Pewari’s got to have it. Just greedy if you ask me.
    Let the bugs go girl! walk away from the bugs…
    get well soon :) -I’ll have a brandy tonight for you, that should help :)

    S’not fair. I do all the right things, honest – I have a fairly healthy diet (and take vitamin supplements just in case), exercise regularly… yet I *still* go down with anything going! *sulk*

    Yes the cold has hit here (and not just in snowing terms) twice so far! You might not be well enough to do anything but you should enjoy the fact that you can do nothing!

    Sounds like you should treat yourself to being a slob for a weekend, duvet in front of the tv, lots of chocolate and hot drinks. No having to worry about looking after the boys!
