I have, it appears, a rather nasty bronchitis. The only thing I'll be going out for this week is teaching on Wednesday morning (and I'll not be walking to class this week!). I'm better tonight than this morning, which may be the result of sleeping all day, or it may be because of the massive antibiotics and pain relievers. I have a very fine fever and an even finer set of small household disasters that will take me 20 mins to fix when I'm well.
In better news, the underlying health is apparently significantly improved on last year and I managed to do 2 hours work today. I'm going to try for two hours tonight, but I'm not pushing it. If my body demands bed rest then bed rest it will get. I've got emergency food for this, so I'm fine for a few days (just heat and eat). Things don't feel good, but they could actually be a lot worse.
ETA: I think I was being overambitious about the work. The two hours I did was while waiting at the doctor's (and if my brain had been working, I would've taken something that was quite urgent along with me, but it wasn't and I didn't, but I did make a bored child a paper crane out of the scraps). I'll just do a big catch-up when the illness fades a bit. Or a lot.
