After updating last night I actually got sick and spent some time hanging over the toilet bowl. Oh joy. Seems like I had swallowed some of the gargling medicine, not fun at all. Bleurk. Didn't help the cold either, even if I did go back to sleep afterwards. Throat hurts, but still have my voice, knock knock, so will be able to read the sonnet tomorrow. Have stocked up on nasal spray, ibuprofen and paper tissues, will need a bigger bag for church.
I'm waiting for mum to arrive tonight, her train comes in at 20:00 if all goes well. Sister is supposed to meet her, and then come over to my place and finally drink the bottle of Moët & Chandon we've been saving for her visit for over year now. Mum was supposed to visit last spring, but then dad got ill and things kind of fell apart for a while, so even if the wedding business is stressful and complicated, we are very happy that she could come down and visit on her own for a few days. She hasn't left dad's side since last summer so she does need some rest. Bloody annoying that I have a cold though.
family,
mum,
cold
