A Kid Again With Diseases At Least

I'm just getting over a little congestion/cold that developed last weekend. Apparently, this happens all the time. Foreign (it's still weird using that term) teachers always get sick within a week or two of arriving. It really makes sense. I've spent over 20 years building up an immunity against many types of colds. That why most kids get sick a lot because they are not immune to a lot of cold strains. Well, here I am in another country with different types of cold strains that my body has never encountered before, and I am around snotty-nosed kids all day. That doesn't add up to anything good. So, I'm like a kid again...just waiting for that next cold bug to infect my body. I have been taking a lot of vitamin C so hopefully that will help some. I also have some Germ X so that will help me keep my hands clean on the go. I'll have to be careful with what I touch.
