The week flu by

This week I was sick with some kind of a cold.  It wasn't flu according to the definition I heard from a nurse one time.  She told me that the way to tell the difference between a cold and flu is one hundred pounds.  (Money, not weight; I heard this in England).  If you are laying sick in bed, and there is one hundred pounds on the other side of the room ($150 aprox) if you have a cold, you will go and get it.  If you have the flu you cannot leave the comfort of your bed as you have not energy left.  As I had energy to leave my bed each morning, I am diagnosing it as a heavy cold.  I am feeling better today but still a little bunged up.  I shall rest this weekend.
