Last day off
Jan. 3rd, 2011 01:03 pmOr so we hope. Fever's gone, ability to concentrate back where it belongs. Cough is controllable. Appetite back to about half normal, but considering that long-term I need to lose weight, that'll do nicely.
( whinging under here, feel free to ignore )
Last night we had a Real Meal, thanks to Asda and their "take these two foil containers and put them in the oven" food. Beef in a madeira and mushroom sauce, roast spuds, brocolli, peas. All very nice, and we even managed to finish a reasonable size portion (though the glass of wine may have been a mistake).
Today we're invited for late lunch with the MiL, so that's roast beef with all the trimmings. And tomorrow - back to work. Well, working from home - I don't expect the back to be up to actually going into the office, and I have an appointment with the doctor in the afternoon anyway.
So, did I get any of the things done over the Xmas "break" that I might have liked? No. I've watched some TV, I've read quite a few books, working my way through the piles of "classics I really ought to read" and some new poetry, but things like assembling new armies, writing, pulling that harp kit out of storage - not a thing. Still, being forced to spend several days sitting next to Dave on the sofa can't be bad.
