still sickly

meh. still feeling kinda like crap...and now i've got the raspy voice to go with it. i called irene this morning to tell her i wouldn't be coming to see her and uncle bill tomorrow...don't want to get them sick too!

for all you boy crazy folk that i sent my flat pics too...that guy is actually my cousin's boyfriend, but i'm sure she'll let him know that he's got a few canadian fans ;)

one of sam's friends just bought a house in the area as she's starting grad school in september so i'm making the trek to ikea with her this afternoon to help her pick out some things. see, i am being useful in my unemployment regardless of how i may feel.

i made a big pot of carrot, ginger and orange soup last night after making the trek to asda to pick up some things and a stock pot (can you tell i'm getting tired easily these days? everything is a trek!) so hopefully with a bit of luck i'll be feeling better in no time at all.

it's bank holiday weekend coming up so i have the feeling that a lot of people will be out of town, either that or at creamfields (a music fest in the old liverpool airfield). i'm thinking of heading to manchester for a day cause i haven't done that much exploring there. and if the rain lets up i might take my bike on the train up the coast and do a little cycling...

that is if i feel up to it. going home to make a pot of tea...cause my teapots here now and i can do that.
