Whining

I am sooooo ticked off. A fortnight ago tomorrow I went down with sinusitis. Not badly, enough to feel really rough at times, and to make me shoutier with the children, but not enough to merit time off work. This lasted about a week. Just as that finally started wending it’s merry way away, I started with a stomach thing that left me waking up in pain, and feeling nauseous. Again, enough to make me feel rough, but not enough to stop me getting on with life.

Then yesterday I had a GOOD day. I felt fine, I discovered that I knew stuff (like the difference between an abscissa and an ordinate – go look them up – they’re mathsy things) that some of my colleagues didn’t know (Hi Gary – Mwah!), and I taught a student to knit.

Then today I woke up with the stomach thing back with a vengeance. And again I didn’t take any time off – tbh I should have done, but I hate missing lessons, especially this early on in the academic year.

It’s been two whole weeks – I want good health! And tomorrow is Friday, and although I don’t have to go into work, I’ve offered my services to listen to Adam’s classmates reading. I may cry off this, I’ll see how I’m feeling.

But I am having a lot of fun with Ravelry.

Hope you are feeling better soon! I have a horrible sinusitis just in time for the first week back at uni on Monday. Typical!

Wah! Poor you. Hope you’re not going to have to cutt yourself off like Lundy Island where everyone’s gone down with a stomach bug that keeps coming back. They had a spokesman on the radio this morning talking about the joys of sterilising a castle and a lighthouse and…

Hope you don’t go through the four weeks (and still recovering… that I’ve just had with this very strange, sinussy, neck/ear/eye socket/headachey virus I’ve got. Like you, not ill enough to stop life, but I can whinge now I_know_there was something wrong with me! The maths thingy was impressive! Hope you are feeling better soon xx

I’ve got that stomachy thing too – nausea from time to time, and then fine for a few hours. Michael has it as well.

I hope you are feeling better now.

Lots of love
