I felt ill last night. I woke up very early today and turned on the computer. I then got tired and had a long nap on the sofa. Much later I got up and did the cleaning.
I still don't feel great, but I doubt I am very ill: I'd know if I was.
Awful. Ive had dry toast to eat. My stomach won't take anything else. Im hot then cold heart is racing at times I feel like I've run a marathon breathless and jelly legs... And there is someone playing bongo drums inside my head.
Get well soon, both of you. Today I woke and, even after a refreshing wash, still felt totally worn out. I am not ill. Maybe it is, as they say, 'something in the air'?
Well, as soon as I opened my eyes this morning I knew things had improved my head was clear of the awful thick fog Ive had this past two day and I felt as if I had a decent energy level..
So we were able to do the walk we had planned for the dogs. Im still tired with a slight headache and puffing like an old steam train but at least my tempreture is back to normal and Ive stopped shaking. I dont feel sick anymore either.
Im not going to push myself for the next couple of days until I know Im better but this is a good feeling.

I'm feeling a bit better today, but I do wonder about the amount we buy over Christmas. I don't need to go shopping, like I normally would, tomorrow
We need to get out there. There is a long list needing buying. Just off the top of my head we need eggs. There is one in the house, and the dog had 4 for her breakfast alone......

I took some medication and feel better, but I am not 100% well. I've also not been able to sleep and got up mega-early today. It was an excuse to work on the computer.
I have a headache, though and do feel like having a nap.
I was feeling really off and down yesterday but I had not been out for a good walk for a few days. I had one this morning and I seem much better for it. Things should steadily get back to normal.
Exhausted but, I heard yesterday late afternoon that my friends funeral is going to be held today.
Together with my other friend we have managed to arrange it to be everything he wanted, low key, he is wrapped in a white sheet. They will play the French national anthem and the eulogy is ready based on what we have told them. I've arrange flowers, dark leaves surrounding white roses and white orchids with a trail of ribbon in the colours of the French flag. These will be placed on the coffin.
My formal black coat is hanging up and I just have to polish my shoes....
I will be shattered this evening but happy to have accomplished my promise.

I didn't expect an open coffin. But there he was wrapped in a pristine white sheet the council had also sent a small posy with their condolences. Some tasteful French language music played softly in the background. The funeral director decided that as there were only the two of us attending she made it a much more intimate affair and pulled a chair closer and sat chatting about him and his life..
Then they played the Marseilles and we stood. As the music ended I wished my dear friend bonvoyage and waited as his body was taken to the hearse for his final journey.
Im so glad but in the end he got exactly the send-off he wished. I feel quite relieved and able to move on without any doubts.
