I’ve had one of those weeks! You know the kind, you feel flatter than a tack yet you’ve just got so much you need to do still, so lazing around (which is all I wanted to do) wasn’t an option.

But nuh, it was a bad idea, the lines were huge & Im talking 2 hours long my friends. Clearly I wasn’t well enough to stand in line for Cosco this week I told myself, so I took myself off to my usual shops. Good idea right? Nuh, bad idea, a very expensive bad idea as it turned out as no sooner had I started in on my familiar food gathering mission that I found myself becoming vague & tired & forgetful. Dam this flue!
