Out Of My Tree

I took the day off work today. I had to. Well, how can you go to work when lifting your arms is a real struggle? To say I spent the whole day asleep would be an over exaggeration but except for a 10 minute period at around 3 and when I woke a couple of hours ago – yep, pretty much the whole day.

Now, of course, I cannot sleep which means I will be knackered tomorrow – but knackered I can cope with, tired is a state of normalcy at the moment – whatever today brought me was not ‘tired’, was not ‘knackered’… today felt like my body hated me and wanted to let me know that fact.

So, I got nothing done today and I had such big high hope type plans to get writing done and Scout palaver and all the usual nonsense.

Instead what I did was play around with Zazzle… Here is the result of that…

make custom gifts at Zazzle
