Day 1628. It's been a while since my last blog post. The main reason for that is that this is the semester break week, so last semester's classes have ended, and next semester's classes only start next week. That meant they had no classes this week. Of course I myself still had plenty of lessons to teach, as different regions have different weeks off.

Day 1623. The boys were up early, and Emmy kept whining that he was hungry. And so we got up early this morning; that had not been my intention on a Sunday morning. At least I slept more last night, waking up with coughing spells less often. After breakfast Randy took the kids downstairs, while I turned my computer on.

Day 1622. What a week it's been! Just over a week ago I started having an eye infection, while the cough I had was getting worse and worse. Then both ears were hurting at different times, and yesterday swallowing started to hurt. The last two nights I barely slept because I coughed all night instead. The cough has been so bad that it's even led to vomiting at times.
