It's a beautiful day outside - the first proper Spring day - and I'm sick with a stomach bug ☹️🤢

Making the most of being confined to bed by catching up on reading for my Creative Writing MA ... which has been one of the best decisions I made this academic year.

I'm really enjoying my new iPad Pro too ... we got a teaching award at work for a module I wrote so I splurged!

Swe_Eva Stomach bugs are no fun. Hope you‘re better soon. 6y
