Since this past Sunday, I have been suffering from laryngitis, which means that my voice comes & goes as it pleases & when it does come, it isn't very well. Here are some pros & cons I have been experiencing...
Con: I either can't talk or if I can, it is very forced & my throat ends up hurting anyway :(
Pro: Students think that they need to whisper because I am whispering :)
Con: I had to attempt working in a school with small children all day long :(
Pro: I only had 2 days of school this week & the schedules for both days were fairly lax due to the holidays :)
Con: My 3 year old does not understand why I can't talk at times or why I won't go along with his bedtime song request to "sing louder Mommy!" :(
Pro: Baking cookies with my 3 year old is one activity that does not require a lot of talking :)
Con: I HATE not being able to talk at will for however long I want :(
Pro: I at least still get to go to bed each night with the hope that my normal voice will have returned by morning~when there is nothing else, there is still always hope left, right?! :)
Here's to hoping it's mostly back to normal by Christmas!
