Poorly

Posted by on February 21, 2009

In Eng­land when you don’t feel well peo­ple say they’re feel­ing poorly and not sick.  If you tell peo­ple you’re sick it means you’ve been vom­it­ing– lovely innit!  It took me a while to fig­ure that one out.  I was always sur­prised by people’s reac­tion when I told them I was feel­ing sick or had been sick dur­ing the night.  Well for the past cou­ple of days I’ve had a lit­tle one who is feel­ing poorly.  This was what she did most of the day Thurs­day, snug­gled up in my bed watch­ing The Koala Brothers on her lit­tle pluter (my old laptop).

sick-booShe has a lit­tle bit of a cough, runny nose and is feel­ing a bit warm.  She’s also been uber snug­gly which has been nice and not in equal measures!

boo-sick-2Daddy came back from Turkey late last night after missed flights and delays due to snow.  It was super cute this morn­ing– she was in there call­ing us and Wal went in to get her.  She was chat­ting away as she does in the morn­ing then said “Oh! DADA!!”  when it sud­denly dawned on her that Dada was back.  At the moment she is on the sofa hav­ing Dada read her all her Win­nie the Witch books (she has 6). 

Went out for my morn­ing walk this morn­ing– Yay!  I hope every­one has a good week­end.  Any­one doing any­thing special/exciting?  I’m plan­ning on rear­ang­ing the bed­room and purg­ing.  I have clothes and shoes I shipped over when I moved here from the US, things I haven’t worn since mov­ing here!!  So off they’re going to a char­ity shop near me!

I’ve been play­ing around w/ some photo tech­niques, these pho­tos are sup­posed to remind you of old 70’s pho­tos.  Do they?  I think the top one is more suc­cess­ful and looks a bit  clearer.  The sec­ond one looks a bit dull.

    I’ve purged my first aid box so far. Will try get­ting rid of leaves later. Then I have TLP.
