And I don&#8217;t recall having left my stinking pit for a ride on the porcelain horse at any point during the night either &#8211; sleeping right through until about 07:40.<\/p>\n<p>I had even managed to fit a little nocturnal ramble into the night&#8217;s agenda. I was driving a coach somewhere but that really is all that I can remember about it.<\/p>\n<p>But in my new &#8220;weak and feeble&#8221; mode, I was in no rush to leave my stinking pit once I was awake and so I stayed here relaxing and chatting to Liz on the internet until about 10:00. Then it was breakfast time, and I took it easy (in fact it took me an hour to eat it) so as a result I didn&#8217;t feel too bad.<\/p>\n<p>All of the foregoing might make you think that I&#8217;m feeling a little better and that is indeed the truth. Not very much, I must admit, but better all the same, and I could concentrate on doing some more updating on the blog. That&#8217;s been in abeyance for a week or so while I&#8217;ve been trying to get my head together.<\/p>\n<p>In fact I was feeling so much better that later in the afternoon I went out to the supermarket on the corner and bought a <em>baguette<\/em>. Not only that, I managed to eat most of a vegan cheese and tomato butty for tea, and that&#8217;s certainly progress.<\/p>\n<p>So now it&#8217;s 22:45 and I&#8217;m not really tired. Sitting on the edge of the bed ready to sleep I might be, but I can&#8217;t see me dropping off any time soon. I still have the runny nose and the heavy cough and the stomach upset and I would be extremely delighted if all of that were to go away, but I suppose that it&#8217;s just the start of the long road back, with a few other setbacks to come along the way.<\/p>\n<p>I suppose that I can&#8217;t expect too much. <\/p>\n<div class='watch-action'><div class='watch-position align-left'><div class='action-like'><a class='lbg-style1 like-6813 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='like' data-post_id='6813' data-nonce='6b9557f122' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Like' \/><span class='lc-6813 lc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div><div class='action-unlike'><a class='unlbg-style1 unlike-6813 jlk' href='javascript:void(0)' data-task='unlike' data-post_id='6813' data-nonce='6b9557f122' rel='nofollow'><img class='wti-pixel' src='https:\/\/lesguis.com\/wp\/wp-content\/plugins\/wti-like-post\/images\/pixel.gif' title='Unlike' \/><span class='unlc-6813 unlc'>0<\/span><\/a><\/div> <\/div> <div class='status-6813 status align-left'><\/div><\/div><div class='wti-clear'><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; well after 02:00 in fact before I finally went to bed.
