Because being a grown up means you have to know when you are too sick to actually do something you really want to do - Like go to the Quilt and Craft show tomorrow.
At the moment I could not walk down an aisle without needing to pause and sit down.
An elephant is sitting on my chest and there is a steel ball rolling around inside my head - Right now the only thing not hurting is my eyelashes !
Normally I'm a concret pills kind of girl - take two and harden the hell up ! But no amount of self-talk or fabric promises will get this body out of bed and on that train tomorrow.
Sorry.

Oh Jodie I hope you are feeling better. You will be missed for sure but stay tucked up and get better.
I'm so sorry you're feeling like crap. Hope you are feeling better soon. You probably saved yourself heaps of $$$.
Gosh you must be sick.
Hope you feel better soon and you have given your co-travellers big shopping lists.
Ohhh Nooooo! I hope you get better very very soon. I'm not going either because there'll be too many sick people who WILL still go along.
You're a very sensible woman.
Oh no, get well soon.
Oh poo!!!
Feel better soon Jodie!
Poor wee thing. Bed, with plenty of water to keep you hydrated... and also so that you'll sprout leaves and maybe even a flower or two.
Hope you're well quicker than soon. There will be another time... and you'll look back fondly at it and say, 'We'll always have Ballarat.'
Man you must be feeling unwell, even your hair has gone a different colour!
May the elephant roll away on the steel ball sharpish.
Poor cookie. Hope the rest of the household are clued up to the (obvious) seriousness of the situation and come running to peel your grapes at the merest tinkling of the bell...
Commisserations. Same deal here *cough cough*. I was super grown up and stayed home Tuesday and then convinced myself I could go on. Clearly have more growing up to do because by the time I staggered home from work yesterday it was straight to bed at 6pm! And today the laptop caught the virus and now it's dead too. Bring on summer!
Sounds hideous.
Hope you feel better soon.
Gee, you really don't look yourself at all. You seriously should go to a doctor for that.
Feel better soon.
xx
Oh Jod you must be feeling miserable! Snuggle up in bed and get plenty of rest.
Yep, being sensible sucks - big time.
So sorry you not well. It's horrible being ill, it's even horribler missing out on fun stuff :( Poor Jodie.
Take good care of yourself and be back up and at em that much quicker for taking the time now.
And tell your family people on the internet demand they look after you!! Scary people!?
Guarisce presto,
AJ
Oh no ... get better soon. Perhaps you can direct shopping from your sick bed via phone-a-craft-buddy?
Get Well Soon Jodie
Oh Jod, on your day off too .. let me know if I can do anything x
I think staying in bed is right. And - I can't help it - a little more of our list of self indulgences!
That really sucks! Hope you feel better soon Jodie.
Oh No Jodie! I hope you feel better soon. You poor thing, wish I could drop by and make you some toast.
I''ll miss you , it will not be the same without you. xo
get better soon Jodie

Bugger! Take care of yourself, keep warm and hydrated, and get well asap!
Oh dear! Off to bed with you. Get better quickly.
Oh dear that is disappointing :-( Poor you, I hope you feel better soon. PS love your staffy, looking very cozy there :-)
Get well soon.
What a bugger! Hope you're feeling better soon. :)
Feel better Jodes. A tipple of brandy and lots of sleep for you.
Take care xx
Get well soon @->--
There's my attempt at a flower for ya.
Take care xx

Oh bummer..poor you..pity those lurgies don't listen to grownups..and keep away. Get well soon Jods.
Mmmm....you really do look very down in the mouth. Hope you feel much better very soon xxx
Oh you poor chicken...it's a bummer but, yep, sometimes we just have to admit defeat. It won't be the same at the show without you but you tuck yourself up under the duvet and get yourself well.
Oh good grief. Feel better, and maybe, when you're up and about, think about addressing that 'tache.
Nooooooooo! Rest up and get better Jodes and good on you for being a grown up. I suppose that if you're not going there will be more fabric for me (he he he)
hope you are feeling better soon, if it makes you feel any better, I'm not going either!
Get well soon sweetheart - I'm glad you're looking after yourself x
Won't be long and there'll be another craft fair - and we'll all be at that one too.
Hugs xxxxxx Vikki xxxxxxxx
Oh no! That's very sad news indeed! Oh Jodie, hope those pesky elephants move it real quick, even if it isn't quick enough to fulfill those fabric promises.
wishing you a speedy recovery, being sick is the pits! best thing for it, lots of rest and plenty of water.
Oh poor you. I hope you recover soon, meanwhile rest up and stay warm. x
That really does suck ! I hope you feel better soon .
Being sick sucks & blows, feel better soon.
Oh you poor thing. Hope you get plenty of rest and feel on the mend soon.
I almost didn't recognise you there...have you done something with your hair? Sorry to hear you are crook, hope you are miraculously better in the morning, if not, then asap xo ps my word verification is fookerl, seems appropriate...
oh bugger! hope you are up and about soon Jodie, copious amounts of tea is what you need!!
Feel better soon Jodie!
Great pic, by the way. Pretty much sums up how you must feel!
Awwww. So sorry Jodie. You have to take care of yourself -- hope you're feeling better soon! (And don't breathe on any of the robots, turtles, ducks or other lovies living at your house!)
Stay warm and snug - and make sure you get plenty of room service - always makes you feel better if someone looks after you.
Get better soon.
That bites. Sorry to hear you're sick, Jodi. Rest up and get better quick, quick.
Oh nooo! Get better quick.
Yvette
Cos I hope it will make you laugh - even if you are feeling mega-manky - "Oh PANTS"!!!!!!
Hope you feel better very very soon!
Locket xxxx
...so its not a little elephant wearing red trousers with cute stitches on its trunk sitting on your chest?
we here are always in total denial of sickness and I will never admit to being sick, but sometimes... there is no escaping it, poor you hope you are feeling better today. x
That sucks bigtime. But I hope you get a chance to rest up and get better soon.
What a bummer. Hope you feel better soon Jod... D
Oh dear! Feel better soon Jod. x
Oh no! I hope you get well soon Jodie. What's Annie going to do shopping at the fair without you, I hope you gave her a list!
Oh no! I hope you feel better soon!
You poor thing - a hot toddy, good book and a warm bed - and indulge in a little stopping time - you have been so busy lately you should have a break - its a pity that the flu is about the only break we allow ourselves sometimes.
Keep (sneezing) smiling and I hope you feel better soon
Merrilyn
What a dedicated blogger to arise from the sickbed to call off blogging for the weekend. And post a hilarious picture besides! If good wishes help, I'm sending a boatload your way.
What a bummer!! Hope you feel better soon.
oh poor you!!!! That SUCKS. hope you feel better soon- you are looking a little furry.
Oh, what a disappointment for you. I hope you starting feeling better very very soon.
Maybe some internet shopping...
