I went back to school on Monday, to start working on my thesis. However, already on Monday evening, I started feeling weird, and by Tuesday morning I had developed a fully-fledged cold. Sore throat, fever, my entire body aching. Same morning, the Polish contractors came and started work on our bathroom. I got closed into my room, the door covered in plastic.
I felt like I’ve been put in quarantine.
I drank lots of tea. Which, as it turned out, wasn’t that smart, because when Polish contractors are stripping everything from the walls and floors of the bathroom, access to the toilet is very limited.
Not a good start on this thesis. I’m only supposed to have worked on it for a week, and I’m already behind. But I’m feeling better now. I’ll work double speed next week.
