I aten't dead 

I've done pretty much nothing but nap all day today so the resting thing is 100% under control! No regrets lol

I am now an absolute expert at resting! Maybe I'll record a tutorial sometime 😂Thank you for all of your lovely comments through the year and I hope your festivities are cozy and full of love x

It really is awful, I didn't realise it was common to take so long to recover until it happened and people started telling me their own horrible stories 😩 But I'm definitely getting there now, and it's been the perfect excuse for absolutely minimal social obligations over the holidays so that's a bonus! Have a great one and I will be back soon! 🥰

Die Hard last night, It's A Wonderful Life a few nights prior, we are way ahead of you haha 😆I've still not tried that app myself but really should get round to it, maybe some kind of comparison of different markup apps would make for a good video.... 🤔(Ack no, bad me, no thinking about this until the new year!) Happy holidays and see you soon!

Sorry for worrying you! Took a while before I was able to record even something as short as this, I have been extremely weak and pathetic lol. Back to my sarcastic self now though as you can clearly see. Merry Christmas and I'll see you in the New Year!

Thanks, it took a while before I could actually say whole sentences without coughing and was able to record, but we got there in the end 😅 Hear hear, roll on 2024! Have a great one!

Thank you! I've had a lot of time to rest up (very lucky to be in that position!) and am feeling TONS better. Still not 100%, but close enough for now. Of course now you've put pressure on the app thing and freaked me out lol, but you never know, maybe it is indeed fate :D

Thank you Sharon ❤️

Thank you! 🥰 I couldn't even knit at all for over a week, couldn't face cross stitch for closer to three, it's been a nightmare! But, 2024 here we come 💪

Haha yay, always happy to meet another fan in the wild :D

Thank you, I figure it's better to just take the time and get back to 100% than try to force it and end up limping into the new year. Happy holidays right back atcha, I hope it's a wonderful one!

Thank you so much! Happy holidays to you, and watch out for me being back with a vengeance soon enough :D

Very happy to be either an inspiration or a bad influence, depending how you look at it 😄 This whole thing was kind of terrible timing since I had fun plans for Christmas videos...but I guess that's next December already planned out instead!

@@TheGiddyStitcher very much an inspiration, the craft supplies needed a good rearranging and cleaning ^^' Its never too early to have some plans ready for christmas, after all...

Oh no, what terrible timing. I hope it's mild for both of you and you can still enjoy some festivities at least. Seriously though when people advise you to rest, it really is the best advice. You could chart the severity of my symptoms and the amount of sleep I'd had that day and they would line up perfectly. Rest rest rest! I was the same too, couldn't do any crafts at all for over a week and even know it's just bits here and there. When we're off our crafting you know it's serious 😭

Appreciate that Jay, and right back at you :D

Ah thank you, I am now honestly a professional in the field of getting rest. Some days I was only awake for a few hours and I'm still napping a lot even now, which isn't like me at all! And absolutely, no sense worrying about this stuff over Christmas. There's more important things in life to focus on right now, and it'll let me go into 2024 at full energy which will make a nice change! Happy holidays, hope you have a brilliant one!

Thank you 🥰 It was definitely rougher than I expected but the breathing is getting a lot better now. All's well that ends well!

Excellent advice for everyone, imo! Thank you, hope you have a great one too :)

Thank you, and happy holidays! 🥰

Right back at you from Teesside! :D

Thank you! I am definitely nearly there now, just took a lot longer than expected to get to this point. Still if there's ever an excuse to lounge around resting in pyjamas it's the Christmas holidays, right? :)

Corny, but appreciated! Still to this day we keep randomly looking over at each other and saying something like "isn't it weird that we're actually married?!" 😂 So it might take a while for the novelty to wear off, I think. Man, what a rollercoaster of a year... Merry Christmas and may Santa bring you everything you wish for!

Replying to this while wrapped up in my electric blanket, in pyjamas, clutching a mug of hot tea and looking forward to a day of food and coziness. So I'm way ahead of you! 😆Thank you, and happy holidays x

Thank you, Merry Christmas, and roll on 2024! 😅
