Big, big thanks to lilithilien , delgaserasca , larian , monsie , _gater_ & ms_3m for the birthday wishes on their LJ's today ~ they brightened up my flist reading and made me very happy :) *huge hugs to all of you* And also to sue91 & rebelstrike21 (thanks for the cake!) too ;)

I've been up since about 5am as my throat is now swollen as well as sore, and I've felt sick all day. Not great timing, is it? Deb came round at 8am and helped me take my TV to the tip which completely knackered me out. Whatever I've got has sapped all my strength and I need wraith enzyme or something. As soon as I got back from there, me and The Boy went to Ella's to help her move. OMG I have no idea where I found the strength for that but I'm covered in bruises and my whole body aches. At one point I was stuck halfway up her very steep stairs with her wardrobe on my back and we were stuck ~ scary doesn't quite cover it! Didn't finish there till mid-afternoon, so grabbed a quick lunch before going shopping, then came home to finish cleaning the flat and getting everything ready for colej55 who arrives tomorrow. Actually didn't fall over sit down until nearly 7pm ... just in time for Robin Hood, and I'm sure mir8lle will be as pleased as I was to hear they will definitely be making a second series :) Didn't actually open any of my cards or presents until just now, that's how busy we've been. Now I'm going to lay on the sofa and eat pizza. And chocolate. And cake.

So I'm sorry I've not replied to emails today and my inbox is pretty full, but as you can see I've not been able to ~ this is the first time I've been able to get on my computer since the early hours of this morning. I will reply soon, I promise, but laying down, pizza and cake come first. I'm sure you understand :)

1. Lay down.
2. Cake
3. Pizza
Never know when you might not make it through to dessert. lol

Sounds like you might have strep throat. If you can and you have, get a small pen-sized flashlight or something similar and a spoon. Go to a nice big mirror. Push down your tongue with the spoon and look at the back of your throat using the flashlight to illuminate. If you have little white looking patches there, then you probably have strep. If you do, then you need to go to the doc for some antibiotics. Also...are you running a temp? You should take it anyway just to make sure.

Take care of yourself.

{{{hugs}}}

ps. What flavor is the cake? :)

[the-muppet.livejournal.com]

I didn't even get to manage cake ~ see now how sick I must be! :P

Gah ~ there's loads of cake in my kitchen and I don't want any of it :/

Still, I hardly ever get sick like this so I shouldn't complain ~ I will try and take it a bit easier whilst colej55 is here ;)

*hugs*

Wait wait wait, it's your birthday today? I had NO idea! First of all, happy birthday, and while I didn't know about it, it seems the producers of Robin Hood most certainly did: thus you had a slashy angsty Robin/Much episode all of your very own! :D You must be so pleased ;)
Secondly...maybe you should stay away from the wraith enzyme? That kind of thing never turns out well...just imagine, you're at work, your boss pisses you off and before you know it, you're feeding off his life force. I'm pretty sure that kind of thing counts as a major work place faux pas.

Pizza, cake, laying down, and maybe some ice cream to top it all off. I hope you have a wonderful rest of a birthday. Many hugs!

Oh, that really made me laugh! :D It really was a great episode which had me giggling all the way through ~ even The Boy was admitting the slashy moments between them and laughing about them :)

Hey, happy birthday! :D And feel better soon!

Aw, thank you ~ it was a busy birthday so today I hope to do very little :)

[monsie.livejournal.com]

Aww! *hugs* Take care dude! At least now you can chill out for you birthday...in pain. :/

*huggles* Rest!

[the-muppet.livejournal.com]

Yeah, if anything it's worse today as now the coughing fits have arrived and The Boy, in his caring brother role, keeps telling me to stop coughing and be quiet! Plus I have no appetite for cake right now, which clearly is worrying. Ack. Hopefully it will pass soon :)

Cute icon ;)

Oh no! You see, that's what happens when you're lying sick in bed all week long. I'm so ashamed, I even had it on my calendar, but still forgot it.

Very happy belated birthday wishes to a very special person: funny, generous, sensitive, warm and gentle. I hope your new year will be better than the old one, with less trouble and lots of 'Yay!' moments. *hugs*

Thank you sweetie :)

Hope you feel better soon ;)
