I know we are lucky in the south that we haven&#8217;t had the awful weather that the rest of the country has been having.<\/p>\n<p>My blogging has been a bit erratic at the moment because I have the lergy. I mustn&#8217;t grumble as everyone around us seemed to have had this at Christmas and we felt really lucky to get away with it. I have had it for just over a week now and am hoping that it&#8217;s almost over.<\/p>\n<p>It started with a really sore throat which was so sensitive that eating certain foods would have me coughing and choking. It went on to a hacking cough and sneezing fits, sleepless nights, aching all over and yesterday afternoon sitting reading a book with a box of tissues on my lap as I was dripping like a tap and I have a very sore nose despite using vaseline. This is the worst cold I have had in a very long time and even my lovely husband said that I looked really rough!<\/p>\n<p>I have taken photos of the girls but just didn&#8217;t have the will to sort them\u00a0out and write a post so have made do with short posts and will put photos out later. I think this peaked yesterday and I am hopeful that I am now on the mend.<\/p>\n<p>I know that there are plenty worse off than me but just thought it would explain my lack of blogging at the moment. Normal services will soon be resumed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This photo is very similar to the photo in my last post but this time it is a layer of frost sparkling in the sun rather than a sprinkling of snow.
