I am staying home today / myLot

I have sick leave as part of my work agreement, and I just could not go today. I feel chilled and my throat is sore.I have aches and pains of course. To be honest this is as much a mental health day as a physical one. I may be here more, but I may not. We will have to wait and see. I have been awake and up since 4:30 this morning. I went back to bed for an hour but coughing woke me up. I am pretty sure I will be going back to bed in just a few minutes. It is a bit of a dreary day with overcast skies. I think it rained in t he night. So I will see you in a bit.

Sounds like the perfect day for a long nap. You may even feel 100 percent better later.

Maybe it is just your body and mind stating a little more rest and to be relaxed . Just to be stress free. It may not be any sickness. Or perhaps it could be the climate change. Even I did not go to office. I called sick and did attend few important meetings but did nothing more. I wanted to be stress free and well been under stress for sometime and working on different things and been busy with lot of things. Sometimes our mind and body needs some relaxation and rejunvenation instead of constant running race for things. Hopefully you will be better tomorrow.You take care!

I have always said of sick days. They are offered as part of our compensation and benefits package, we should use them, and never be penalized for doing so. Hope you get to feeling better soon.

Not having enough sleep is indeed tiring. I hope your cough and cold gets better
