Bad Day

I missed work today, because I couldn't sleep. I came home yesterday with a huge headache and went to bed early. Unfortunately, I didn't sleep well at all and I still have a headache. I have been extremely stressed out at work this week with the absence of my Co teacher and yesterday at work I was freaking out, because I had to be prepared to present an activity for the Cinco De Mayo celebration to the parents at the agency that I work at. I didn't realize that I had to do this even though I had the activity all created and with the absence of my Co teacher, I was freaking out even more about doing this in front of the whole school! I just thought I was supposed to just do the activity in my classroom. Apparently, all of the classrooms had to do this. I have been written up for calling off too many days already. Now my supervisor said that I need a doctor's note. I don't know what to do now.

Hi what this means is you need to see your doctor and get a sick note from her/him. Can you do that? I don't know what country you are in but this is what you do in the UK.

Thankfully, I did get one. I just hope that nothing back fires like the last time when I was sick, called off, saw the doctor and got a note. Even though I did everything that I was supposed to do, I still got written up. :-(
