meara, you need to take care of yourself, too. But if you really do need to go back to work, do you have flexibility in your schedule? Maybe a couple of hours in the morning and a couple of hours in the afternoon, just enough to keep up with the email? Or what I did after my back surgery, work the same number of hours but extend the day to add a couple of hours to rest.
Tom, I'm also a big fan of going to sunny places in cold weather. Another option -- playing tourist at home. Go see some of the sights that are just a short train ride away, but you never get to because daily life gets in the way.
I have a week's vacation at the end of the month, but that's going to include a colonoscopy and associated bonding with my bathroom. Yay.
We have a network drive - shared files - and entire folders/directories keep disappearing. We do have nightly back-ups so if they're discovered early enough we can replace them, but it's a pain. So far, we've had our contract document templates (which we sell, at a nice profit) deleted twice and our photos of Board of Directors members, going back years and years. And others I haven't missed yet ... no telling when that's going to be a disaster. (And my boss gets cranky when I keep files on a hard drive ... sigh)
Omg, disappearing files would make me nuts!!
Am watching Britain's best home cook, as recommended here. Which is good for just laying here feeling bleh. Surprisingly this is really the first day I've felt this way since the accident? Though possibly the first few days after surgery I was on so much oxy that it didn't really register
Everyone can relax; my coworker was able to restore her files.
oh good ... a friend of my sister, YEARS ago, was in charge of a massive amount of information for the Treasury Department (yes, the federal one). One day a girl who was new was doing ... something ... frivolous, if I remember correctly. She managed to wipe out 20 years of Treasury data ... which, thanks to back-ups, was restored. But for a moment there, the friend nearly had a heart attack.
Wow, if she could wipe out 20 years of data accidentally, imagine what she could do if she really tried!
One of my cousin's died unexpectedly this morning. We were close as children and not much as adults. She was a year older than me and had health issues but nothing life threatening. All I know is she had a seizure. Correction it was a heart attack
I scheduled two weeks off at the beginning of December, because I'll lose time if I don't take it, but I have no idea what I should do with it.
I recommend the South of France? Chill out in Nice and/or Cannes?
