You get to hear me complain about the lurgy. The pangs, the pains and general suffering of this neurotic 26 &#8211; nearly 27 *sobs* year old.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m ill. It&#8217;s after 3pm on a lovely sunny afternoon and I&#8217;ve just (well 20 minutes ago) got back out of bed, I&#8217;ve slept, taken pills and then slept some more&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>It started when I woke yesterday morning with a dizzy incoherent sickly spaced out feeling, accompanied by a headache which kind of improved over the course of the day. It progressed overnight so I woke this morning with a full family of wood peckers inside my head, pecking away at my eyes from the inside trying to find an escape route.  My head felt like my brain was trying to force it&#8217;s way through my sinuses. My body aches and is alternating between wanting to expel my stomache through the nearest available orifice and  feeling weak and sick with hunger. Not that I&#8217;m actually hungry &#8211; I have eaten my body just doesn&#8217;t feel like it has!<\/p>\n<p>So I&#8217;m off work. I was yesterday and again today and the only plus side I can find is I got to supervise the construction of my new blog. It&#8217;s something I&#8217;ve been wanting to get around to doing for ages and Jamhead (that&#8217;s James to everyone else) promised to help me with the move from the old site to here. Mainly because he&#8217;s better at these things than me and in part because I was too damn lazy to do it myself.<\/p>\n<p>So yesterday in my weakened state from a chair by his side he worked hard to import all my old posts while I sat and bitched and whined about it not working right ( not that I&#8217;d actually tried it out at that point) it not looking right (my own fault for choosing a theme that needed lots of tinkering) and it not being fair that I felt ill (something he really had no control over) but bless his heart. He sat and listened and placated and cajoled me into a better place and build my blog, all the while striving to complete his own work at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>So this is our home  for the foreseeable future. What do you think? I will redecorate at some point with a new banner all of my own making &#8211; or maybe\u00c2\u00a0 using this one as a base. I will get round to adding all my links and working on my &#8220;about&#8221; page, but for now &#8220;it&#8217;ll do&#8221; as all my energy needs to be spent getting well again!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was going to blog about the blonde kids first few days at his new school but it seemed like a mammoth task by the time I actually sat down in front of the computer so instead you get this.
