still coughing just as hard, but not as much. have doubled the ventolin and symbicort intake and that appears to be helping. despite waking at 6am and not being able to get back to sleep, the day got off to a good start with a smile thanks to a wake up message from mlb in london. then came a good laugh about pantyhose at karen's blog and then another laugh while reading shirl's comment about swimsuit weather in michigan over at the other side.
the lovely cg called today to have a chat - she is a long term treasure and never fails to cheer me up. she has promised to send some books for me to read. also had another chat with tim - i could get used to these daily chats but better not as i'll be back at work soon enough.
i found a dead ladybird on my windowsill today. poor baby. she was very pretty - pale orange with 18 spots. not sure what to do with her, so i've currently got her wrapped in a tissue as i can't bear to chuck her in the bin. i'm hoping that she is living up to her european reputation as a sign of good luck (although sadly not for her)...
