Is Beta Blogger Better......You Decide?

Well, hopefully this blog will post, as I have just changed from normal blogger to beta blogger. I just hope that I don't lose everything I have already entered!!

I did crawl back into bed yesterday.....I felt rotten, and I think I am still recovering from our trip to France and Belgium, and getting up early yesterday for the arrival of the mattresses. I always forget when I am "reasonably healthy" that I'm still not 100 percent! D'oh.

Also, seeing as I am now re entering the community, as in seeing endless people at work, I am more susceptible to colds and suchlike. Well this darned cold is just getting worse and worse. I feel like a bear with a sore head, literally, My whole face aches especially under my eyes, and I am a lovely shade of grey. Nice!

Last night was ok. Hubby is away ALL week this week, he rang me at about 6, and we had a good chat. It's good to hear his voice, but I just wish he could transport a cuddle or two my way :(

I had my dinner, and a lovely hot bath and settled down, having the sofa and the tv to myself is quite a novelty. I snuggled under my "poorly blankie" watching all of my choice of programmes, had a hot toddy (hot lemonade with a drop of whisky), and went to bed.

I had forgotten it was the new matress, which I had made up earlier in the day, and had to stand on tippy toe to get into bed! I got out of bed three times to surround myself with pictures of hubby, and hubby and me together, so that if I felt lonely I could look at him. Then I had to get out of bed to get my lilac "love" teddy bear to snuggle with. Tonight I will douse it with one of hubby's aftershaves to smell him while I drift off to the land of slumber.

I was expecting to be a little uncomfortable, after all I was used to our old matress. But before I knew it the alarm clock was going off to wake me up. Boy is that bed comfy now!!

Up, breakfast, read Sunday's paper, (hubby normally gets me a paper every morning to read as I eat my breakfast). Had my milky coffee and read e mails and blogs, then Sis In Law rang to check I was ok :)

She had rang me yesterday at gone twelve o clock midday, and thought I was still in bed. She didn't realise (until she read the blog) that I had been up for ages, and just crawled back to bed for a kip!

I received a lovely e mail postcard from Little Miss Pink via the C Beebies website, sent her one back, and then sat playing the bubble game. I got carried away and was ten minutes late in getting ready for work!!

Once at work I delved in. No orders so I did some filing. Mine, the team leaders, and Boss S's. Then I did a quote, and finally the orders started piling in off the faxes! Back into the swing of it, but feeling rotten....I did in enjoy it though :)

Hubby e mailed me at work to say he now has my cold! Now I feel really guilty for passing it on. We did try and avoid it, i.e. not sharing cups or cutlery.....but maybe it was the final kiss before he left for his week away :( Hopefully his immune system is stronger than mine and he won't feel quite as rough. But at least he doesn't suffer from "man flue" I know if he says he is feeling poorly, he IS.

One time he couldn't get out of bed for a week......mind you that was his last day off work sick in about 8 years. Good job one of us isn't ill often.

So here I am. Home from work, cold, sore faced, and praying that beta blogger works ok.

If I lose any of my sparkly "sickly sweet" pictures I will be well miffed!

Tomorrow Mum is coming to help me move the new single mattress onto the bed and make it up. Then hopefully I am going to start covering the streets near her for Avon. The more the merrier I say :)

So for now......I'll sit and wait for hubby to ring, snuffling, sniffing, blowing my nose, hurting my sinuses some more, and generally feeling sorry for myself.

Oh pity me! O woe is me!. It's only a cold woman! Pull yourself together.

Sis In Law will soon slap me on Saturday if I'm still whining :)

Hugs for now.

Whisky
