Ringing in sick

Hello everyone

What absolute stars you are ...I feel much less alone and thankyou for sharing how you feel.

I've picked up a cold from somewhere and while it's by no means bad..it's knocked me off stride a bit.

I thought .oh..wouldn't it be great to stay in bed and ring in sick

Sadly not an option for many of us.

I have had a carer here this afternoon so been able to rest .

Hubby has been in bed the ENTIRE time so not eaten ...going to be a busy night.

Love and thanks to all for replies ...

My goodness, I didn't realise you were still working too! We're both retired, I don't know what I would have done if not. You certainly are a trooper! Glad this group has helped. xxx

Hi. Oh my ...no no..I don't work

I look after hubby full time with night time carers coming in.

No i meant. Somewhat tongue in cheek .. we carers can't ring in sick can we... 😁 Sorry my warped sense of humour....

Duhh, dozy me! I always make our kids cross as I'm so slow on the uptake, sorry! In fact, a job probably sounds appealing as opposed to what we are stuck with, doesn't it?! Take care xx
