As per title really 😂
Caught something off DP that he had all last week. His was a bit of a cold/sore throat situation but mine seems to be slowly turning into a chest infection. I can't talk properly and i just coughed so hard for so long that I vomited 😫

Please tell me a funny story/nice thing you've done recently/interesting fact. Photos of your pets also very welcome.

I've got the lurgy too, feel sick all the time, hardly any appetite and when I do eat I want to throw up! So I feel your pain! I've survived on milky coffee and ginger nuts for 3 plus days!
And my DH definitely brought it home from work, as I put my back out over a week ago and haven't been anywhere to catch anything!
I watched my 2 sibling kitties being outsmarted by the family of squirrels in the garden this morning! That amused me! They are now both asleep upstairs, so I am going to get myself a hot water bottle and join them! Get well soon OP 🌺

Here's my dog today modelling the new jacket I made for her

@Allelbowsandtoes That's Sabre that looks like your childhood cat, his sister Suki is behind him! She has a proper little white bikini!

Try and lie on your front if you can OP, you get more air into your lungs that way and it can help clear your chest.

Feel better soon x
