Tues 24 Apr

Not feeling very well this morning, a bit chilled and a cough. Also I had some spotting yesterday, more than 5 years after my last period. What the hell was that about? I will talk to MD if it continues. Went into work to write a memo that needed to be done, reschedule an afternoon appointment, and came back home. I have about 1100 hours of sick time accumulated, and anything over about 1025 I will only reap 1 hour for every 8 earned toward sick leave conversion when I retire. There is minimal incentive to continue to push myself to work when I feel crummy, ergo I am home. Wow, an extra 1 1/2 hour's sleep made a difference. Don't think I'll go back to work because taking it easy this afternoon will likely improve my health more, but I feel much better.
