Decisions, decisions

[tiamatlady]

I'm trying to decide if I should be at work today. I frankly, don't have a problem with working from home. I can do it in my PJs, and I can also get a few more things done that I didn't yesterday. And also, if I get worn out, I can take a nap.

I'm coughing pretty uncontrollably, and it's not something I get warning on. Right now I haven't coughed for about 10 minutes, but I just took a quick meds dose. My nose is running like a spigot. And the office is hot as hell. I swear I was miserable yesterday and relapsed some due to the heat in the office.

OK frankly I don't want to work in the office today, I want to go get some things, print some reports to bring home, and come HOME for the day. *sighs* I don't even want to get dressed, but the lack of printer in the house makes that impossible.

Sick = wibbling. How silly. I'm going to go take a shower and see how it goes.

ETA - OK, staying home. I actually feel MUCH better after having made the decision. And the phone call. And the reinforcement from dionysia *grins* I think sometimes I need a mom. *grins again* Now if only I didn't have to leave the house. That's unavoidable, as I need some food, and some files from the office and stuff printed. But I am going to cancel my client tonight, which will give me some time to work on their stuff at home, and not infect the house.

It's lovely cool in the house. And I'm hungry and needful of a shower. So I'm off. Roommate has also made coffee. Yay coffee.

You = sick
You = work from home

Roommate offered to write a note, signing it "jen's Mom"
Heeee heee heeee!

I just called in. I said I'd come in and get some stuff to work on; I didn't bring any of it home. I'm ALMOST tempted to pop out and buy stuff for my printer, so I don't have to stay in the office and print.

I know it's for the best, but I just had 4 days off. I don't want the problems that come up around it. Just yesterday there was a lot of ranting about other coworker who was out sick, and how bad she is (ironically the one I got into shit for yelling at last week. Apparently it's OK to bitch about her behind her back. She's not bad, she's just getting a lot thrown at her, while she's very ill)

*hugs* thanks for the reinforcement. I'm just so used to "having" to work that it's hard to give in.

You know it will only be worse if you overexert yourself.

Yes I know. Thanks mom. *grins*
I'm actually not looking forward to going out at all. But there will be juice, which will be good. So very good!
