Home sick from work today and doing my best not to feel guilty about it. I'm one of those weird people that feels guilty when they don't go in. I have the blinds open and I'm watching the snow as I'm having my coffee.

courtney Feel better! I'm also home today and I feel the same way. I always feel like such a lame-O when I call in! 7y
ErinC Same boat. This is day two for me, and it's killing me to not be there for my students. 7y

quirkyreader @courtney @ErinC @Suet624 it's good to know that I'm not the only one that feels this way. 7y
Varshitha Feel better soon.. I am opposite to you, I usually relax and thank god that I have a day off😁😜.. That might be because I don't get to take leaves easily... 7y

SusanInTiburon You're doing the right thing. Your coworkers agree. 7y
Hoopiefoot I'm the same way. I get so nervous calling out, even when I know I've earned the time and don't want to get my coworkers sick! Rest up and try to relax. 7y

I started this one this morning while at Bucky's. I also tried the white chocolate mocha when I was there with a triple shot. It kept me going most of the day.
