overworked

everything's relative, of course, but since last week, i've been working a lot. i was given two new private students, one of which wanted to come twice a week, which added 4.5 hours to my otherwise comfortable workload. i know it's really not the end of the world but i was shattered when i got home after work, and at the end of the week, i wasn't a pretty sight. this week's slightly worse, as a couple of my lessons had been cancelled last week. and to top that off, loads of people have been sick so i've now caught something new, because as we know, i'm one big virus/bacteria magnet! the holidays simply can't come fast enough!
