Still hoarse! Learning some things!

Well, it has been so interesting having to whisper!  First of all, it was difficult to whisper for 3 hours and 45 minutes while teaching piano!  I talked out loud more than I whispered, probably.  As a result, my throat hurt more afterward and it was much harder to talk out loud when I needed to.  It was hard to not talk out loud!  My kids and dh thought I was mad if I did talk out loud.  My suspicions were confirmed that dh only half listens to me sometimes.  I woke up this morning with a little better voice.  Oh, and I video-taped myself talking and I'll put it on youtube, but not until that disc gets full.  I don't have my b-i-l's hard drive video camera anymore where I can shoot and upload immediately.  Another thing I learned is that I CAN'T HUM!!!  Weird, huh?  I can't even say, "Uh-huh" for 'yes' or "Huh-uh" for 'no'.  I'd rather be hoarse for a month and not have this cough, though.  That's the worst part of it.  And when I do cough (which is about every 5 minutes) I have to do whatever it is to keep myself from "wetting".  I guess it's a kegel thing.  THANKFULLY, my spirits are not down because of this.  As long as I don't have a fever, I can be sick and still function normally (well, except for the kegel thing).

I GOT MY NEW METRONOME!  The guy at the store called yesterday (right before I was about to get my first student) to say it was in.  So, I went this morning to get it.  Then I went to my mom's to use her sewing machine.  The weirdest thing happened this morning with MY sewing machine.  I was sewing a piece of elastic on my house shoes (2 pairs) and I got shocked!  I'll work on it later when I'm ready to get shocked again!  I don't think it was much voltage, though.
