Lurgies

Morgan - this time of year is rotten for colds as your body has to adjust to colder weather outside, warmer in shops, damper etc. I hope you feel better soon - do not underestimate the value of fruit tea with honey, it can work wonders. Also rum.

Apparently (source OH) the average toddler gets 8-10 colds per year. Little bear seems to be over achieving in this as well. He is also extremely generous with the sniffles. OH has a problem which means that a cold often leads to things like antibiotics and guarantees sleepless nights, problems breathing and general fedupness.

I get everything, of course, but I just potter on slower than normal. Or in some cases stop. The takeaway shop does well out of us at these times. Although I am getting better at working round this. Darling father also suffers, but he gets lots of afternoon naps.

Off to tackle the great 'getting little bear dressed' challenge. Easier than the Great North Run, but I'm not sure by how much.
