Better

[fabrisse]

I've taken today off. I'm better, but I still feel as weak as a kitten, so I'm going to do a little bit of cleaning, husband my strength, and go to work tomorrow.

Part of me feels guilty for not going in today. It doesn't help that it will probably end up as leave without pay. Most of me is just exhausted, though, and it's the part that won.

Taking care of yourself is more important than work. You've gone through a lot, physically, over the past several days. If you're still feeling weak, then your body is letting you know that you're still weak. Resting and healing are the two most important things you can do. Don't push yourself (a little spring cleaning is okay, but nothing major). Just feel better and take care.

Hey, it could be worse. You could have been dancing like MGG *points to icon* and ended up needing knee surgery. In comparsion, you're doing great.

I'm glad to hear you're on the mend. You know, if it helps, I'm always sincerely very grateful to co-workers who don't drag themselves into work when they may be infectious with something really nasty. also, as I expect you're finding today, when you're recuperating, it's possible to go from feeling 'okay-ish' to 'totally exhausted' all of a sudden. Rest well!

While I'm pretty sure I'm not contagious, you have an excellent point.

This is a beautiful day. I wish I felt like being out in it.

Very true. At least I didn't end up having three knee surgeries for one minute of fail.

I've been vegging in front of Hulu so far. Not doing much, and I still feel exhausted.

*hugs you back*

I think you needed the extra day. {{{{ hugs }}}}

Me too. I'm at work, but I don't know how long I'll last. It's just fatigue at this point.

((((hugs))))

Indeed. It's like you need 36 hours of sleep in order to feel re-energized.
