A Weekend Indoors

I don't usually get the entire weekend off work, but I did this past weekend.  Unfortunately, on Thursday night, I had the symptoms of a cold which emerged fully by Friday.  So, I was sick and laying in bed and on the couch for the entire weekend.  I don't get sick very often, and my cold seems milder than other people around me who have caught it - including Paul, who was sick with a fever for a number of days.  Some of my co-workers had a stomach flu...I seemed to just feel very weak with muscle soreness and a really bad cough.

I didn't seem to have the energy to do anything at all.  I totally hate that feeling because I am the type of person who always has to be doing something.  I can't even watch TV without a knitting project in my hands at the same time.

When I did have a small amount of energy, I worked away on my Sakura Cross Stitch.  This is a huge cross stitch project that I hope to have finished someday to get framed and hang on the wall of our new home.  The cherry blossoms are almost finished, and it is coming along quite nicely.

If only I was feeling better, this would have seemed like an amazing weekend -one where I could just sit and craft all weekend long!  Today, while I am still getting over this cold, I feel much, much better.

On an unrelated note, I finally watched the movie Coraline and got to witness all of the tiny knitting that I blogged about a while ago - how amazing is that!  A great movie as well, you should definitely check it out.
