Getting Sick

I think I'm getting sick. I can feel it coming. I wish I had taken airborne but I didn't. Today school was hard because I was too tired. I didn't sleep much last night because I felt sick. Tonight I came home and slept for a long time, tried to work, found a lot of stuff (but not what I need for tomorrow) and now need to sleep again. I really need sleep. I guess right now I'm just deciding that sleep will make me a better teacher tomorrow than having a lesson ready to go. I dont know why lessons are so hard right now.

It's like I have mental roadblocks...i dunno. Oh well, I'll figure something out for tomorrow. Gov's pretty much covered the rest of the week. I'm excited for Spring Break next week. We only get 3 days...but at least I can sleep a lot. I probably will have to use it to plan, and that kindof makes me sad. It won't be much of a break, but at least I can plan and take naps inbetween. Anyway, I'm going to just go to bed, whatever.

Reflection: I need to find some zinc...I don't want to get sick...but my nose is already running. Drat.

my first thought was: stress > decreased efficiency of your immune system > sick

at this point i would focus on taking as much care of yourself (adequate rest and diet) as you can, maybe even more than lesson planning, until the end of the semester. this is your body's way of giving you a wake-up call that it is overwhelmed and running low on resources. if it is not addressed with due consideration, your symptoms can get worse.

i know that probably doesn't make you feel any better, but stay strong ginny. i believe in you.

my grandma would say you should fill a cup with warm salty water and then have a friend pour it down your nose...

needless to say, i've never tried this little piece of advice...

but she swears it's a miracle cure.
