I was sick for practically a month in October/November with a cold and sinus infection. Since January I have had the stomach flu, and now I am on my third cold/sinus infection. I feel like I have practically been sick more than I've been healthy.
Everyone says this is just what happens to beginning teachers. The experienced teachers at my school say it happened to them their first few years and now they rarely get sick. I hope this is true.
It makes me appreciate the healthy me. It also makes me sympathize with those that are chronically ill.
I'll stay in this evening, and have my fingers crossed that I'll be back at school tomorrow. Here's a picture of my couch...where I've laid a lot in the past two months.
