    Thanks Taxi and KC, it seems to be running its course :p, had to sleep propped up last night (which was interesting but happens when I get a bronchial cough) add to that de-cluttering tissues by the ton and I am doing well :rotfl:. Dr Dragon is going to try and get out to get me a) more tissues! and b) some echinacea :D, the cough is subsiding (at the moment, not sure how it will be at bed time again, having just typed that I had a coughing fit :rotfl:)

    sorry to hear you've got the cold.
    I hope it clears quicker than mine has, i'm still bunged up from last week.
    Hope you have a lovely crackling fire going and are being looked after by your OH and the furry one. Hugs

    Okay the cold seems to be heading off :j and it looks as though Dr Dragon has not got it :beer: or if he has only a mild dose at any rate! I am, however, going to take things easy still (otherwise I will be back ill in bed before you can say :xmassign:)

    The only thing I hope to do today is put up the rest of the cards we received (which includes one from the lawyer we used for Dr Dragon's employment claim 18 months ago :eek:), okay time for another :coffee: and then the cards (oh and planning the shopping for one night this week - we do NOT want to be food shopping on Friday! :eek:)

    Yep, these lurgies are really, really dreadful, you take as much time as you need - you know I was prattling about my cards on my thread? I didn't send any last year, nothing at all, when I was down with that months long lurgy - you can only do what you can. You take care of yourselves.

    Thanks KC, I didn't send any last year either, I just didn't have the energy or inclination :(, I have sent all mine this year though but a number of friends are saying "what's the point? they are around the house for a couple of weeks then binned!"

    Okay :coffee: being drunk again, the cards are up and The Furry Dragon (tm) is curled up on the sofa giving off little doggy snores :rotfl:, just had a cheese & ham sarnie (late lunch), Dr Dragon has put a casserole in the oven (will do us today and next couple of nights)

    enjoy your casserole. I haven't written any cards yet, and can't be bothered too recently. I have to admit i really can't be bothered with much this christmas and i've thought oh heavens i have to find somewhere for the cards when we receive them. I really must take a happy pill and pull myself together.

    I think that once the people of my parents generation are gone I won't bother with cards any more, I send them out because it's what you do (and my Mum would be disappointed in me if I didn't), to me they are a waste of money (not just the cards themselves but the postage as well!)
