Don't really know why I called this blog reflections, maybe that is what I am doing. I am off work again (3rd time in 9 weeks) with the damn head cold, I just can't get rid of it, I nearly do, then if comes back and bites me. The Dr. says to rest, well that ain't real hard these days, I just don't really feel like doing much at all, I have forced myself to do some knitting as I know I have a room full of yarn still. I am just about done with the size 10 jumper for Guardian Pharmacy going to Mongolia, I think when I think of how cold these people must be gives me a bit of motivation to knit.
Rough year or two I guess, and if I be honest I would have to say it has knocked the stuffing out of me and that is saying it nicely (as people who know me will know). I need to 'get a grip' as I would tell my family if they were down or not themselves. I am a firm believer in 'mind over matter', and I have been telling myself I am going to get over this cold, I will feel better, I will be excited about things in my life.
To put it a bit more in perspective, most who read this know how much I love to ride and how much I loved my harley, and how I love to ride with DH with him or ride his harley, well the news of the week is that I have put a deposit on a brand new 2008 Dyna Fat Bob, and to tell the truth, I am not in the least a bit excited about it, can't even get a smile about it. I guess when it arrives I will, well DH is hoping so.
Anyway I am on another week off Dr's orders and resting, and trying to convince myself that I am getting over this cold and being down in the dumps. Oh and I am taking mulit vitamins and mega B, hope that does something. See repeated myself, am doing a lot of forgetting things lately, I can't even remember the pin to DH bank account which I use every fortnight to take his pay out for our budget, can't for the life of me remember, we were out riding on the weekend and had to borrow money from a friend as I forget the pin, had to go to the bank and order another one, luckily it arrived today as I have to get money out of bank tomorrow to buy food.
Well now back to getting on with my life and trying to get my groove back.
Pictures to follow of jumper when I sew up the seams.

Gee new set of wheels nice cnat wait to see it. Sounds good and the best medicine is retail anyhow.
Keep knitting and the bugs may get the message or are they trying to get you to knit more.
You poor thing. There is nothing worse than a cold/virus you can't shake and they seem to be particularly bad this year.. Rest and recuperate, eat well and drink lots of fluids!! Get a bell so you can lie in bed and ring it so others will do your bidding!!! (My favourite advice!!!)
