Usually when I have been ill in the past it completely wipes me out for a few days and then as soon as I start to feel better I go all out to catch up with what I haven’t been able to do. Normally someone would do Nas for me and I could just crash out on the sofa or in bed for couple of days.

No such luck anymore, in the four years I have owned Nas, Steve has never done more than bring him in on the odd occasion for me. In fact most of the outside chores were down to me. That is until I insisted this summer he mowed the lawn (I have to pick up the dogs muck first though mind) on the one occasion I wasn’t here to do it, he just mowed straight over it :-s)

So the last few days have been a bit of a struggle for me to say the least. Everyone got fed watered and new bedding etc. though. Even if it was a bit rough around the edges and took longer than usual. And on a plus note because I was in the house more I actually managed to get some of the little niggly jobs done.

Even though I am feeling a bit better today, I think I am going to take it easy again and finish off what I have started in the house. I’ve also got a mega job of mucking out to do today. And some eBay listing -we’re having a clear out, to make room for Christmas- and because I hate seeing stuff we don’t use lying about.

I have no idea what I currently weigh, the scales I bought from Argos, don’t seem to work. And I know I haven’t put on 6stone in the past couple of weeks to take me above their maximum weight limit. And being ill I have lived in comfy clothes for past few days. So it’s hard to know where I am at. Let’s just say I haven’t been that good.

Snacking and picking, and a mega sweet tooth since Halloween aren’t helping. I had thought I would get back on track this week but then feeling tired and crappy makes me want to eat to feel better. I’m thinking over the next few days I won’t go all out and try to be healthy, but I will try cutting back on the amount I am eating again.
