i had friday & monday off due to this stupid illness. was still sick last night, but managed to choke down most of an apple for dinner.
when i was at my dr's on monday, i told him i'd lost my job due to this illness, and he had some choice words for my employers. none of which he included on my medical certificate, thank goodness.
got back to work today and they mentioned that i could finish up earlier than originally stated, especially if i was still going to be sick & needing time off.
they were prepared to have me finish up today, but i stated i could commit to at least finishing out the week. so i finish up on friday. then i guess i get to move forward with spring cleaning every nook & cranny & cupboard in my house for the next few weeks, dieting & exercising like a maniac
in one way, i am really glad that we cancelled the trip. the extra $$ (when the refunds are finally processed), will come back into our accounts and will benefit us more by by being in our accounts than by paying for an experience that we can duplicate next year, or the year after.
the only part of the experience that we can't get back is that we wanted to be standing on a mayan pyramid in december 2012. and now we can't do that. but that's a small, insignificant experience compared to financial security.
gosh, it's hard being a grown up sometimes.
so... i'm going to be sad this week. and then positive moving forward, even if it kills me.
