Had this cold since New Years day, and although the sore throat and runny nose have stopped, I still have that constant drip down the back of my throat, and clearing my throat all the time, and the bad night time cough keeping me awake. So very tired, and just no energy. And this morning I have been going dizzy, but think thats my sinuses causing that.
Its bad enough pushing a full wheelbarrow, but through the thick mud, and with having no energy I keep getting the wheel stuck. Have been stopping for10 minute rests, and cups of tea, which is not getting much done in the way of work!!!
Everyone has this cold ....some worse that me. Parked next to an elderley farmer friend in the village, and he said he, his wife, and son had been ill all over xmas, and still were not right His wife had been to the doctor, and he said she was seriously ill and wanted to put her in hospital, She refused, and he put her on antibiotics and sterioids, which helped. Anyway, she had gone in the post office, and her husband had to park outside as he said she was still weak. He said she had lost weight in the two weeks she had been ill. I was so shocked when she came out of the shop ......she was a robust woman, and it was like looking at a frail old lady, who in all honesty, looked likedshe may not be here long.
I know I am tired, with all the coughing, and look really drawn and pale, but I am thankful I do not look as ill as that poor farmers wife. Well, I hope not!!
Hopefully will feel better tomorrow, and have a bit more life in me, and able to get more done, at a faster speed!!
