This was so me this morning. In that fantasy dreamland in between opening your eyes and thinking of your day ahead.
When you plan to break eggs with sticks, knowing that you have languished for the past 4 days feeling under the weather and feeling sure that when you open your eyes you will be fighting fit.
Well, that feeling lasted approximately 2 minutes after I had opened my eyes. I still felt very thick head and under par. I soon had to admit to myself that I would be spending yet another day becoming square-eyed in front of the TV.
I could not even muster the strength to tidy up and just added to the pile of pots waiting to go in the dishwasher as the day went on. I had to again ring the mother unit and tell her that I would not be taking her shopping, as I was still testing positive on my latest lateral flow test. Needless to say, she was not very pleased, I have taken a rain check for tomorrow and I am hopeful that I will be okay by then.
I had agreed several weeks ago to look after Robyn as she had a teacher's training day so her Easter Holidays started a day early. I assumed I would be ok by today, so I didn't put Ben off. At 9.15 he turned up with the little one and we have spent the day watching Disney films.
This afternoon Robyn wanted to bake cakes and do some crafting, and to be honest I was a passive onlooker. I have to say Robyn wasn't feeling too well either today so we made a right pair haha. At one point we were both laid out on the couch, she was moaning about a wobble tooth, mid-afternoon she leapt up triumphantly with said wobble tooth in her hand.
We didn't have any hundreds and thousands for the cakes so Robyn improvised, raiding the sweet bucket for palmer violets haha. Don't know what they will taste like on top of the salted caramel icing but hey ho she was happy.
So, as I close my blog tonight I am hopeful that tomorrow that fantasy dreamland will actually come true and I will be raring to go.
