My Language Project Bogged Down

I really should stick to my day job. The language project that I have been fussing over for the last couple of weeks has completely bogged down again. Who was I to kid? Nannies are known to not have much intelligence to attempt something so advance. LOL. Many people think that Nannies are nothing but modern day slaves. Someone's hubby remarked that if an individual is smart, he/she will not choose such a low class job. I must be pretty dumb then. LOL. Why do people hire someone dumb like me to take care of their precious creations?

I am also not well. The first time for may be 10 months to a year. I went to the supermarket after work last night. While I was stuck in the checkout line waiting to be served, the guy behind me was coughing all over me. He had to cough my way because he can't cough at his wife, who was standing behind him. I actually wanted to move to another line but decided to risk it because I was next to be served. He, like many people, was one who coughs without covering the mouth. I, like every living person, had to continue to breathe in oxgen, including his germs. To my bad, bad luck, the couple ended up catching the same tram as me. As it was rather packed, he was standing next to me again. He coughed all the way. I wasn't the only one offended in the tram. Quite a few people made faces. LOL. I got off before him, thinking that I should be alright. I immediately took a shower, hoping to wash off all the germs. By midnight last night, I was beginning to wheeze. By bedtime, I was burning. This morning, I woke up with a croaky throat. I had the fever after lunch. Took Panadol again and went back to bed. I took Cordral this evening and my appetite is gone.

It looks like I will be spending this long weekend in bed. Its great too because I will have all the time to read the latest Harry Potter book. I hope to get well before Monday because I will be returning to my usual schedule next week. I will be calling the girls' parents tomorrow to notify them that I am not well. This will give them ample warning in case if they want to make other arrangements to prevent the girls from catching the bug too.
