Sickness

I must admit that I usually don't get too sick.  Maybe a cold or a throat infection once a year, but I am usually pretty resilient to the nasty bugs that fly around...

That was until last week!  After having a few bad weeks of 'health' news about friends and family, I think my morale and hence my immune system must have been down, because I.got.smashed!

Today is my 9th day on the couch from what has been diagnosed as tonsillitis, a virus and/or the flu.  Even my poor doctor (who I have consulted with 3 times in this period) is somewhat baffled at what I had.  Thankfully, I have just had the all clear from tests that she ran on Friday, and there are officially no 'nasties' in my blood cells.  I am assuming that means I will live to see another day, hopefully outside of the confines of my house!

Here are some pictures of what has made up my life for the past week...
