What does a Pig Say?

I have slight soreness in my throat on the right side and my left nostril is kind of stuffy. Plus my right elbow has been aching all day. Oh Lord have mercy, do I have the swine flu?!?!?

Call me crazy, call me psycho, call me paranoid...but just don't call me "infected". I have a really bad case of the freak outs about this swine flu. I even wigged out on two teachers because they grabbed my arm. I told them stop touching me there's swine flu out there!!! Then today I got the janitor at school to give me some disinfectant to clean my clasroom. I cleaned the desks, door handles, phone, cabinets, and about anything else their grubby little hands would touch. I also told my students if they so much as cough I'm sending them to the nurse. I did send one before 9 oclock to get checked--he looked flu-ish and had 3 of the symptoms. After he left I sprayed his desk again. My current classroom arsenal includes clorox wipes, foaming hand sanitizer, gel sanitizer, and school grade disinfectant. So back off little piggies or say hello to my little friend!!!


Hubs thinks I'm crazy, my mom thinks I'm crazy, my coworkers think I'm crazy, my facebookers think I'm crazy...dang maybe I am crazy!! No I'm just being precautious and don't want my kids to get it especially Bubby since his immune system is only subpar.

Is anybody else freaking out or just going on as normal?

It is just the flu! A different strain than the one this winter and you were not scared enough of it to get the flu shot! The media and drug companies are really gonna clean up on this one. What you are doing though in your classroom is good. Keep those hands clean!
