Or my allergies are very bad!
Not sure which one, but I feel awful!
I woke up this morning feeling like I hadn't slept. I had a headache, sore throat, runny nose and no energy whatsoever. I know that a couple of kids I was teaching on Tuesday said that they had colds, so maybe I picked up something from them.
This is typical of me. I have a week's holiday, tomorrow is Hannah's birthday. I have plans and ideas for things I want to do. Getting sick was not part of the plan. I'm sipping ginger tea and trying not to feel sorry for myself.
I always feel May is the last good month. The last month before the heat and humidity set in and make just everyday chores feel impossible.
Having only one working air conditioner doesn't help. I should get at least one more for the kitchen/dining area, but of course, no money.
I was thinking about our money situation yesterday and wondering why it's so hard. I realised that David's and Christopher's combined income is enough to support one person, but it has to support three people. That's crazy.
This is the reality of Japan. I know people in other countries are also struggling, but I only know that from the news.
I'm really wondering what to do. We haven't got any new students; I actually lost one, which really doesn't help. I guess looking into online teaching! Also, I keep seeing these videos about making things like print-on-demand or digital products. They make it look so easy: go to Canva, click here, drag this and voila, you have a product to sell. I keep trying, but end up getting so frustrated that I want to throw my laptop through the window!
I'm just rambling, sorry!
