Day 78

When I get up today I know I have a cold, as I don’t stop sneezing and blowing my nose into tissues. I take my shower, get dressed and ready to take Thach Thao and Phuc to school ‘cause after, Xuan and me have to head to the warehouse where all the stuff is.

After leaving the kids at school, we grab breakfast at the bakery, go home to get my backpack and head to the warehouse. The trip is always the same and long and my butt it’s starting to be squared because of all the time I spend seated… when we arrive to the warehouse, the tree guys hadn’t still arrive so we have time for our breakfast. When we’re almost finishing, two trucks arrive and the two of them full of trees ‘til the top: 9 thousand trees! Too much work to do too…

The guys start passing the trees from the truck to the container and that’s how’s it going to be the all day, so I grab my book and travel to a place far away from where I am right now.

During the day, Xuan and me go get food for the guys putting the trees in the container twice and drinks once. The lunch food, chicken with rice, is just awful and I can’t eat much… my nose keeps dripping and doesn’t let me feel ok so after lunch I go rest a little bit on the top of a table. While I’m resting, rain starts pour heavily and like by magic, it stops… this is how Vietnamese rain rolls! =)

After the 9 thousand trees are in the container it’s time to go back home and I feel bad… but not before doing a couple of photos on the way back.

At home, I rest a little bit and then I’m called for dinner… I eat beef with rice and soup, 2 bowls of soup and then take the Vietnamese bomb medicine… I head to my room and I’m able to talk with my parents for a bit after my shower, unfortunately I couldn’t speak with them very long as the medicine started doing what they have to do and I fall asleep almost instantly… it was 8.30 pm… I wake up again at 11.30 pm, I go to the toilet and head back to sleep as my head is heavy as a coconut full of water…

Night night everyone, don’t let the bedbugs bite!
