I'm Off Work Because . . .

I get chest infections too and when I do the only thing I can do is laze around, reading, watching tv or sleep. The trouble is getting others to realise that you're just too knackered to even walk upstairs!!

I'm afraid that all you can do it look after yourself and wait it out, hope you don't get too bored - send someone to the shops for loads of magazines and some chocolate (that usually cheers me up!!)

Hope you're better soon.:-4

Confined to the flat for the last couple of days with severe man flu, but I brought work back with me and I've probably done more than I would have in the office - sad or what!

The interuptions are continuous and I've run away to hide

Hope you recover soon :-6

Ouch nasty, chest infections are evil! If I'm ill I just tend to go to bed, and try to get some sleep, so I spend less time thinking about bring ill, and trying to have a nice dream instead.

Hope you get better soon Helefra!!

Oh poor you, I can only agree with everyone else, read loads, watch any favourite movies, nap and eat chocolate.

Hope the antibiotics kick in really fast and that you are feeling much better for Christmas, take care.
