I`b Dot well..

I took the dogs out yesterday and felt awful afterwards. Now I`ve developed my once-a-year cold so the furry horde is having a duvet day like me. Once a year won`t kill them.
What do you do? Do you soldier on or take to the sofa?
I used to carry on regardless but found it takes longer to recover so now I languish, demanding tea at regular intervals until hunger drives me to the kitchen .

Horrible horrible horrible, isn't it?
Luckiliy I don't get colds very often (typing with fingers crossed) but when I do I really suffer. (Why is it that people can look, feel and act perfectly well and drop down dead whilst a simple cold can make so many people feel so very bad?)
Stay in bed for a day or two and get better!
Have you got a dice portable daptop? Dat's OK then
Best wishes

Even a cold can be rotten,never mind the flu(and that really is bad)

Curl up and get those around you to pamper you

Re: I`b Dot well..

Colds are sooo horrible, I do feel sorry for you.
Unfortunately I have to soldier on with horses and an aviary depending on me. If it was just the dogs I'd probably a duvet day too because I believe you are correct, you can shake them off quicker if you rest.
Do hope you feel better soon.

Re: I`b Dot well..

Not at all nice, is it

Pull that duvet right up under your chin, box of tissues at your side and have plenty of hot drinks ...... hope you'll soon feel better, Claire.

Re: I`b Dot well..

Rest that's what your body needs when you are poorly.

Hope you feel better soon!

Re: I`b Dot well..

I get my son to walk the mutts if I am poorly....Stay warm, drink plenty, sure your furry horde will not mind too much....Hope you feel better soon..........

Re: I`b Dot well..

Re: I`b Dot well..

I very seldom take a cold and when I do, I just work it off! Hope you are feeling better by now.

Take care.

Re: I`b Dot well..

I'm one of the few who rarely get them (knock wood!) but when I do I just stay in, pamper myself, drink lots of liquids and take extra vitamin C. Hope you're feeling much better soon Claire.

And cats don't have to be walked .. they're happy to cuddle up in bed with me and commiserate!
