Slave To The Bottle

This stuff has been a saviour since last night. After the euphoria of getting the job, came the balancing check of a horrendous cold.

I've had to move on to hankies with an Aloe Vera balm in them as the normal hankies are just shredding the skin on my nose. I can't breathe very well, my throat hurts and I pretty much ache all over. Oh and I've sneezed pretty much since I woke up.

None of which has bothered Moot at all. He still wants to stand in the terrace doorway, letting all my precious heat out... Bless 'im.

Stil, thanks to Olbas Oil, I've managed to breathe through my nose a couple of times today and caught a very faint whiff of it. I think this means I positively reek of it.

Anyway, I'm off to wrap myself up in warm blankets and get cosy on the couch. That's sometimes the only good bit of having a cold.
