I'm cold. I have a sore throat. It won't turn into a cold and it won't go away. It fades in and out. Some mornings it's gone and then it comes back. Outside it's trying to snow but only managing to turn the world wet. Oh god I hate February......
And so, lest we forget.....
I give you this.....
And this......
And this......
Top tip: Get out of the cold and into the warm, go see the Manet show at the Royal Academy and pretend you're in France.....
Eugh, I really know how you feel as I'm the same - freezing, not quite right, a cold sore on my lip and it's grey and wet outside... On days like this I thank my lucky stars for being able to work from the comfort of my own home :-)
ReplyDeleteHello:
ReplyDeleteOh, we are so sorry that you are unwell.We had something very similar which, sad to say, lasted on and off, just as you describe, for several weeks. Not good news!!
Alas, we shall not get to the Manet but did enjoy hugely 'Cezanne and his World' here in Budapest just before Christmas.
Snow here!!
Sorry that your feeling poorly and hope that you are feeling better soon.
ReplyDeleteDo those photographs mean that you are off to sunnier climes ?
I actually love February probably because Feb. Ist is my birthday and I love snowdrops and the magic of snow ! Most people I know hate it !! XXXX
...or move to Canada where you HAVE to learn to love the snow. Seriously though YAH, big blue skies here even when it's 10 below. Feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to read you aren't feeling well; how about a great big bowl of chicken soup? Thank you for sharing the summery photos; I am a fellow hater of February!
ReplyDeleteThe February feeling has me firmly in its grip this year.
ReplyDeleteHaving not left the country in over two years it's definitely lack of sunshine.
Oh to be a grand dame and retreat to the Med for the sake of my health.
Get well soon. Jx
It seems February is the new January!
ReplyDeleteI'm coming back as a bear... hibernation is looking more and more inviting! Feel better soon. Julie x
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel better. Beautiful photos!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry you're ill, never mind April, February definitely is the cruellest month! Get well soon! x
ReplyDeleteFeb is pretty vile --but we are half way through it...
ReplyDeleteWas devastated last week that Reg Presley (ne Ball) of WILD THING fame died.
Yes yes to be elegant in Paris.....
Monty Don is doing it for me on Friday nights!! The Hermes garden in Paris was devine, but the Villandry last week was off the scale! xxxxxx
ReplyDeleteFoggy here in the Bay Area, Ca. I wish I could to Manet show and pretend like I'm in France, I'll have a croissant instead...
ReplyDeleteAgree with Diane - Monty all the way! Serious crush on this man. (oh and the gardens were fabulous too)... Hope you get better soon - lovely photos and yes what a good idea to go and see the Manet exhibition. x
ReplyDeleteWe've had horrid bug here - very depressing - but seems to be finally going. Hope you're feeling better. It was bright today which helped a lot, even though its still cold. I can't bear it when its grey! X
ReplyDeleteI love Manet. It started with The Philosopher at the Chicago Art Institute. And then that lunch in the park, well...
ReplyDeleteHope you're feeling better soon. We had the lurgy just after New Year and it took ages to shake it off. Roll on the better weather.
ReplyDeleteooooh pooooooor you!!!!! We iz now at the 16th of Feb and you will be feeling much better already! I hope :-D
ReplyDeleteIt's nearly MARCH!!!!
Ali x
Oh no! Feel better, my dear! Kisses and hugs
ReplyDeleteI have always felt that April was SO not the cruelest month. February is by a long shot. We are to get another "monster" snow storm this week. I am so weary of monster snow storms....
ReplyDeleteSympathy for the sore throat but I still love the misty, frosty mornings....and Bonjour Tristesse is one of my all time favourite books...
