Home, sweet home!

I succumbed to the inevitable yesterday and went to see my doctor. So now I'm on sick leave until Wednesday, when I'll have to go back and see if I can go to work again.

Despite being sick like a dog, I enjoy this unexpected break greatly. I hope I'll be able to catch up a little with my reading and writing, and generally rest some more than usual.

My little Silvan girl is coming tomorrow - she and Mum share the same birthday (she just turned 18, which is a big marker), and we'll have a dinner and hopefully much fun. I'm not worried to infect her, or, in fact, anyone - I never do. I just have to go through this crap once a year; it seems there are no exceptions anymore.

Perhaps I'm getting old, after all? ;)

Yeah, I know what you mean about sick but relaxing. Even when all I did was sleep, it was kind of nice compared to the regular pressures.

I think it's really cool how you can hang out with your students.

Have a great few days off!

Just think of it as a mini (sick!) vacation. ^_^

I hope you recover soon. *hugs*

Now, spoil your self with reading and resting and eating - you're under orders to take care of yourself! ;-)

Is this the same coughing virus you had a while back? :(
HUGS and hope you rest and enjoy your sick-leave.

I think what you need is rest. Rest does so much for we humans. Hope you are feeling better soon!

Sorry to hear you're sick. I hope you get better soon but at least you're enjoying yourself. My company is cutting back on our hours because of the bad economy so I've gone from forty hours a week to thirty-two. It's not a good thing but I do find myself enjoying my day off in the middle of the week. I just hope that work picks up soon.

You're not old! :)

I hope you feel better soon, but it's good that you're enjoying your sick leave. It's a relief when the doctor signs you off and you know you have that time to rest, isn't it? I've been back to work this past week, and it made me realise how nice sick leave was :)

Enjoy your sick leave, and take care - maybe Wednesday is a bit too early to go back to work again at your age? ;)

I'm so sorry you're sick! However, I also salute your plans to enjoy the time off: reading and writing, along with rest, are good medicine. Do enjoy your Silvan girl's visit!
