Mon 3 — Sun 9, Feb
Or, that was the week that was and, thank the small dog it’s finished, in the past, gone though sadly, never to be forgotten. Well, at least for the next 12 hours at least. I’m on day eight (8) read that, DAY EIGHT of battling the flu. The OH is on on day 10 (can you believe that?) I mean, really? Either my flu shot from last year has saved me from an apocalypse or, wasn’t really effective in the particular strain of flu me and mine caught.
Who knows. I am just hoping that things will slowly improve this week.
The thing is, you would think that with all this couch time I would have finished the book I stated a couple of weeks ago or, at the very least, watched a few decent programs. Not so. The book lies languishing on the coffee table, unmoved by my drama, while the TV has ben mostly off (would you believe) as I haven’t been able to concentrate much.
I can’t even say there’s a silver lining to all this lounging around. Like, catching up on some much needed sleep. No such luck. Nose drip and a hacking cough, sore throat, and a constant headache have not helped the cause. I feel sleep deprived so much so, I doubt I could catchup even if I slept for the next 20 years. Even if I had another 20 years to spare, that is.
I did, however, get to watch a lot of tennis this last week and watched a couple of docu-series over on Netflix as well. I love me a good documentary.
Watched:
- Live to 100: Blue Zones
- Chef’s Table (season 7)
- Chef’s Table: Noodles edition
- A Matter of Faith
- Spellbound (movie) ★★★★☆
The animated movie, Spellbound, was a nice change of pace and had me laughing.
Somewhere in all this I also signed up to do not one but two photo challenges. I started LazyBear’s the 100 Pics (#100pics) and looking forward to tackling Hiro’s Composition Challenge which starts Feb 17th. If you love a good challenge go and sign up, go on, do it now.
Oh, and there was that thing, you know, that Thing this weekend. Something the Yanks love to call the Super Bowl, though, the rest of the world isn’t invited to play, but that aside, it seems the favoured team, Kansas City Chiefs lost BIG TIME (to the sound of raucous cheers) to the Philadelphia Eagles.
Yay, go Eagles.
And that, as they say, was the week that was.
