Viral Influences and other things that spread...

I think F has infected me... He had a mild case of man-flu last week which is lingering slightly. I have managed to avoid colds this winter despite his best efforts to give me the offspring of each of his chain of colds... I have had the occasional little baby sore throat, a sign maybe that my body has been trying to expel his nasty invaders.

Yesterday I felt lethargic and crawled back to bed at lunchtime for a snooze. Today I have a little baby sore throat lurking and I have been sneezing a little. I feel tired and very, very lethargic. No chance of me doing anything very much at all tonight.... Bed will call me home early I expect.

I think Little Dog is a little disappointed in the lack of outing but she doesn't overly like rain so I don't think she can hate me toooo much....

Today I bought some Easter Eggs for a local radio stations request for eggs to deliver to children in hospices this weekend. I just have to find out where to drop them off exactly. This will work nicely as my charity donation for this month.

I also got some fenugreek to be my first herb / spice. What I have learnt today is that the herbs and spices I use and am confident with form a large proportion of those on sale in my local supermarket. This challenge is going to be a little more complicated than expected! I shall dig out my book on herbs and see what I can figure out....

I also have set up my postcross account and have my first address to send a postcard to! This one is off waves breaking on rocks and will be going to Germany. I can see that this would be quite addictive.... I also finally managed to think of a secret for my post secret card. This is an odd thing because sending a postcard means everyone who handles the card on it's travels can read it. I imagine it can be quite cathartic. My secret is a funny thing. I am awful at keeping secrets. F knows everything about me really, worsd fall out of my mouth. There are however certain parts of my past that, although he knows about them, he doesn't want to explore too deeply and I respect this. My secret is something I could tell him but I don't think he would want to know, although I could tell him at sometime in the future...
