Not feeling too good.

I woke up this morning with a stuffy nose, then it started to run. I squirted some First Defence up my nose. It a nasal spray that you are supposed to use at the first signs of a cold and it's supposed to trap the germs and stop it from developing into a full blown cold. I did it at around 10:00am, 6:00pm.and 10:00pm. You are supposed to use it 3 times a day.
Even though I was feeling a bit under the weather I still managed to do a little bit of sorting again today. First I unplugged my little pink keyboard from my computer, because I'm keeping that when I get rid of the computer. I put it behind my wardrobe with my real Dads steering wheel. It fit nice and snuggly!
Then I started sorting stuff off the chair in the corner which used to belong to my Grandma Cross. It used to sit up the corner in her spare bedroom. It's made of a kind of wicker stuff but it's painted pink. Anyway there were all sorts of stuff on there, and I sorted out about 5 empty bags. One was a Battersea dogs and cats home tote bag = keep. One was a fabric type bag with a broken handle so I'm going to put that in the Tesco fabric recycle. There was also a plastic bag with a torn handle so that can go in the Tesco soft plastic recycle. There was also a bag from the Flying Tiger Copenhagen shop which I used to like going in before it closed down in Lichfield.
I also found a bag with etchings and Zentangle books in. What I mean by etchings is those foil drawings where you scrape off the black and reveal the foil below. There were a couple that were completed, a couple that weren't touched at all and one that was half done. There was also a packet of tools and a foil etching kit that wasn't even open. I also found some paintings in there that I hadn't done myself but that someone else had sent me. They were of the rock group Extreme and a lovely one of Nuno Bettencourt.
I also found a few other bags with stuff in which I haven't had much time to look in because i've had to leave some of the sorting till tomorrow because I had to go and get my dinner.
What have you lot been getting up to today?
I hope you are all well.
Have a great night.

Oh, no! I'm sorry you are feeling sick. I hope you are feeling better soon.
I ain't going nowhere near a Doctor. I don't want to bother him with a simple cold. I will self medicate as usual and I will get better.

Thank you very much. I've done a bit more sorting this morning, but it was stuff in a bag and I could sit down and sort it. Thank you very much. I'll do my best.

Yes, it is. Still more to do. I don't know where to put the photos. If i can't find a place from them they'll just go back on the chair and that was not the intention.
