Last week I started my new job.....this weekend I spent the whole time in bed with what the doc said was a virus that is apparently going round.

Today I felt like I was dying, but I dragged myself into work and then went home at 11am sweating like a pig and head not working at all. Second week in. I haven't even done a full week yet and I have had time off. I really wanted to make a success out of this and I feel I am shooting myself in the foot already.

Apparently this is normal, especially working with kids everyone at work was really nice and said that everyone gets ill in the first month or so until their immune system builds itself up against all the germs that the little rats seem to expel from every pore. This doesn't help me though as I have a non existent immune system and I am always getting ill, infact the first thing I do EVERY single morning I wake up is think, am I well today?

I landed an alien type thing from my left nostril yesterday, seriuously, I was that alarmed that my brains were coming out of my nose that I had to go and show M. It was like this orange jelly mound with blood in it and it was HUGE! Think that must be the virus.

On the positive side, I LOVE my job and the house is coming along really well, I am so excited, I want to move in NOW!

Also, I have a question: How do people stay SO thin? like celebs, for example. Do they just not eat anything? and HOW do they do that? I mean I could not go without eating curry or chinese takeaway and if it's down to exercise then how do people find the energy to work AND go to the gym? I am SO fed up of watching my weight and although I have lovely curves I still feel a little fat but I cannot for go my favourite foods coz then I just feel miserable. I have not been eating healthily at all, and  feel sure now that I prob have full blown diabetes, but healthy eating is so boring!
