feel like ive been offline for ages LOL its been about a day...
day before yesterday managed to clear an entire room and get plenty of packing done, mainly the kitchen living room and clothes left to go but we're here for another couple of days yet...
Yesterday however was horrid! I was so unbelievably sick, think ive got like a bug or something, couldnt even keep water down, just bought everything back up, was the worst feeling, didnt have any appetite but i am really thirsty.
I was up all night with it, poor dh couldnt help me at all. and then i spent the whole day in the bath/shower. it was the only thing that made me feel better, even managed to fall asleep, but was in there for roughly 5 hours just kept letting some out and topping it back up.....
still not 100% today, trying small amounts of water and not moved out of bed, and im not sure i will at all....Wealth is not measured by currency0 -
