I'm on the mend DIA. Making good use of the veggie box contents to try to boost my immune system.

I'm on my feet today and have concentrated on putting together some nutritious, immune system boosting meals and completing Week 5 of my course. Week 6 will start Monday and I don't want to fall behind. Wasn't my best work but at least it's finished.
I've been able to get away with less medication today so that's a good sign.
Positives for today:
Health -- I think I've turned the corner and will be back to full power soon
Wealth -- only small spends today. Mr F picked up some milk in the village as we'd run low
- took a look at the budget for December and all is looking well. It will look even better if Mr F's pay rise comes through in time
Happiness -- completed Week 5 of my writing course
- there's still a day of the weekend left :T
Happy Saturday

The cough is still with me
I drugged myself up yesterday so that I could make my re-arranged hair appointment. I had to cancel last week when I first got the bug and it was on the day too so I didn't want to keep messing them around. Did a few chores whilst I was out too.
Today I need to progress Week 6 of the course. There's a lot to do this time and I don't want to fall behind. The house is in need of a spruce up as well and there's ironing...
I'll see how I get on. Bored with it now. Just want to get on with life. My inhaler is helping but it makes me jittery so I don't want to take it if I can avoid it.
I know it's only a cough and people have to cope with far worse but bored, bored, bored, bored, bored.

This cough is really taking its time to go. I know I'm improving as I'm able to get through the day without any cough treatment now. However, without taking the cough treatment I feel just as bad as before... if that makes sense.
I'm having bad dreams too. The night before last I dreamed that the rain was pouring into the house (I've had this type of dream before - must look up its meaning) and last night I dreamed Mr F left me :eek::eek::eek: I've checked with him this morning and he says he has no such intention but I'm going to be extra nice to him today just in case :rotfl:
I've done nothing by way of housework and only a little of this week's course. I know it can wait but I'm getting very impatient. Plus there are some social events coming up which I so want to be well enough to enjoy.
So glad this is only temporary and feeling for those who have to deal with chronic debilitating health conditions.
Stay well everyone

We seem to have developed an illness tag team in my family at the minute! Just as one person starts to feel better someone else succumbs! Then back to person one.
Hope that pesky cough goes very soon. Don't worry about the housework - it'll wait.Mortgage (Start Sep 2014)- £70,295/£0 - 100%
