Over Wrapped

After taking heed to the numerous words of warning about how chilly it was going to be today, I found myself BOILING in my big coat, gloves and scarf. I had to strip down to my fleece after the sun set because I was so warm in spite of being outdoors in a small tent all day. I did manage to make it through the whole day without any form of painkillers which must mean my cold is officially on its last legs - I honestly can't recall what feeling normal is like yet I still crave it. A two hour drive at the end of today managed to sap out the last of my strength though but a later get up time and an earlyish night should be just the ticket.

"Nice Haircut"

Got complimented on my new haircut a couple of times today. In reality I had just shaved my beard...

While the days in Cornwall were chilly, the frost is starting to set in on us now. Standing still is lethal and going out in the wrong gear will cost you... So it was a good thing I totally misjudged the weather and spent the next 10 hours cursing myself. Tomorrow is all about the bundles and layers, I gotta be the envy of the crew when I'm all bundled and toasty.

Taking Inspo

Still on the tail end of this cold, but that's a great excuse to stay indoors! I bought a hearty handful of games in the Black Friday sales and I've been slowly making my way through them. Once I had enough sofa time, Rebecca and I hit North Street for the Sunday shuffle, mostly to start gathering inspiration for Christmas gifts - a prospect that I've still yet to dedicate much mental bandwidth to. As the day went on, my symptoms softened (especially after my midday nap!) so begrudgingly, it seems like I'll be healthy enough to do Monday. One more early night and I'll be back to it all.
