Not so good at the illness lark
Today I took the first day off sick I can remember taking in years. Not sure if it is something I ate, or just a bug, but sufficient to say that I have spent a good deal of time in close proximity to the toilet in the last 36 hours or so. Usually I might have battled my way to work, but this morning it was as much as I could do to drag myself to an iron and press teen son’s school uniform (yes I know, at 15 he could do it). I then spent till lunchtime (not that lunch was on the menu) in bed while the immodium kicked in. I am now feeling much more like my normal self, so am expecting semi normality to return tomorrow.
Got some semi good news at a meeting on Friday; there is still money for education in the NHS, just much less than we have enjoyed in previous years. Still though it looks as if we can begin to spend, even if I don’t know who will be left to spend it on. Having said that, the redundancy threat has subsided a little, as someone somewhere has realised it is not a major money saving option in the short term and is more a long term measure.
As can be seen here, life is a little slow around here right now, this might be because I am under the weather, or it could be because I am counting down to my holiday in 3 weeks and 2 days!!!
