My cold didn't seem to be too bad yesterday but it attacked during the night.  
I had to get up for a while as I felt like I was suffocating and lying in bed was horrible.  

And so today was a write-off.  Not that I had any grand plans but I hoped to get out for a stroll.  I did head out but only got as far as the shop because, by the time I came out the weather had turned watery.  So I just returned to my nest. 
I made chicken soup.   I hoped it would taste like mum's but it doesn't. It's pretty good though.
