Life Lately :: Illness, StyleFruits and EBay!

A week has passed by without a post and I’ve certainly neglected my little slice of the Internet. At the risk of veering unexpectedly into a personal post, I’m going to be painfully honest with you and hope this doesn’t come across as a mega whinge. You see, I’ve been ill, again. I’m extremely run down. I feel as though I’ve been working myself to the point of exhaustion. Up until a couple of months ago, I felt as though I’d found the perfect work/life balance. My health was good and I felt content with my lot in life. In the past two months, everything has gotten on top of me and my health has started to suffer. Thankfully, it’s nothing major but I’ve had laryngitis, tonsillitis, severe migraines, chest infections and right now, a stinking cold and a honking cough. That’s since the start of February. Needless to say, my mood has been far from cheerful. I’ve become so tired, I’m often forgetful and I’ve become a bit of a recluse. I’ve barely seen any of my friends and I’m ashamed to say that their messages have passed me by in a bit of a blur. I’m not alone in wracking up a 60 hour working week (sometimes, over that), but no one tells you how hard living alone can be when you’re working full-time hours. Now that the Easter holidays have arrived, first thing tomorrow, I’ll be paying a return visit to the doctors. Following that, immersing myself in music and taking a long rest. And, with that elephant said and out of the way, let’s move on to brighter things.
