Oh my friends and oh my foes, I am weary of being sick.
I got home from a church organizing thing Saturday last week, saturated with human nature, and I found the husbeast in a state of flatness uncharacteristic for him. He was sick, and proceeded to be a sniffly Mofo all weekend. I got groceries, made a vat of chicken soup, and hunkered down.
I have caught it and have either been working from home or taking sick days since Monday. He's worked from home and is largely recovered except for a dry cough.
It's not Covid 19, just a cold, the nurse hotline is pretty clear. But it wiped out my week and it feels like I just had gotten over the last one.
Unusually, everyone at work was very supportive of my working at home. I called into our weekly staff meeting and everyone was talking about how to prep for a potential command from on high to work from home.
I am flat in bed and will probably be back at work Monday. Hopefully the generous vibe toward people taking sick days when they need them will continue past the current crisis.
