This sounds quite reasonable...

What is says about you: You are a contemplative person. You appreciate beauty and craftsmanship. You are patient and will keep trying to understand something until you've mastered it. You share hobbies with friends and like trying to fit into their routines.

Rowan finally succumbed to the family cold at school today - poor love is very pale, and completely not himself. He's barely moved from the sofa all evening, and that's totally not him.

This means it's very unlikely I'll be at work tomorrow, despite the fact it's Dad's day off work. In point of fact, that's going to make things even more unpleasant as Dad's going to be very disgruntled at having company for the second week in a row...*sigh*

He was bad enough on Sunday, when I could do little more than lie prone on the sofa myself.

I don't know how work's going to react, as I'm dealing with a replacement manager (Louise is on maternity leave) and I am supposed to be working all five days. However, they don't pay you when you take a 'Care of Dependant' day anyway.

I'm also a little frustrated as there's a project at work I'm taking part in, and we're supposed to be meeting tomorrow afternoon. I've worked an extra hour and a half this week 'cause it's not entirely work-related and will take up pretty much half my working day, and it didn't look like I was going to be allowed 'time out' to attend. Not that they have much work for me to do these days anyway...

On a positive note, my name got drawn in a competition to win two cinema tickets! You had to not take a single sick day during October to qualify, and the winners were announced during the 'Employee Of The Month' awards meeting this afternoon - I wasn't expecting to win anything, as they always schedule these for times when I'm not in the office anyway, so I had my back to the meeting helping clean up some spilled Sea Monkeys! You can imagine my surprise when my name was called out! Also came this close to winning £80 in the bingo game too! *makes "Rats!" fingersnap*

Oh, poor Robin! I hope it doesn't hit him too hard and he's better soon.

I've got the soreness-at-back-of-throat thing myself, but I am not acknowledging it. If I get a cold and my usual Mystery Virus kicks in, I won't be able to walk to work, and they don't pay sick leave ...


Yay! for the tickets anyway, though I'd rather have had the £80. Or even the money for the tickets!

Yeah, he's been amazingly docile this evening - except when it came to bedtime, admittedly.

*hugs* Stay healthy, hon - best you can, anyway! My current job's the only one I've ever had that actually pays sick leave (unless it's a care of dependant day, of course) so I've never taken it for granted either.

It was £80 in bonus bonds, I forgot to mention. But even then, that's useful this time of year.
