Still uneasy

[Daisy425]

good morning.

I’m not feeling 100%. I woke up stuffy and with post nasal drip. I think it’s allergies. I went to work and I feel slightly better. Not so much stuffy and no more sore throat. Just feeling a bit blah. I also have an upset stomach a little (having to go to the bathroom). I think that is anxiety induced as I have a lot of students sick and it’s making me anxious. I had some Cheetos for a snack (not healthy I know but that’s what was available) and I don’t feel like I’m going to throw up. Which tells me the stomach issues are probs all anxiety related. I really just want to feel like myself again and I want to go home. The kids leave in about 4 hours but then I have to stay after for an hour for a meeting. Then an hour drive home. It seems so far.

And part of me is just anxious I’m sick

Your reminding me of my time teaching. Every year when school started I'd catch a cold and lose my voice. It's hard to stay healthy when the kids drag in every bug going around. Do the best you can. Stop worrying - it's a waste of your good time. Best wishes for a great school year! 🥰

Thank you! I really love teaching but the sickness makes me so anxious. I try to remind myself I have a strong immune system from being around sick kiddos all the time. I’m hoping it’s just allergies
