I just called in sick... humph.
This virus is really kicking my ass since last Thursday. There was a bit of stomach stuff, but otherwise, it's the most focused flu I've ever seen: sore throat and extreme fatigue. That's it. Day after day.
My throat seems a bit better today, but it's 9 a.m. and I'm already set to crawl back to bed. I feel so useless and unproductive.
On the positive health side, my heart has been incredibly steady for months now, my tennis elbows have been relatively quiet, I've been successfully managing my tendency to pinch a nerve in my neck, my knees have been pretty awesome and yoga is completely changing my alignment which means less neck and back pain.
Now I just have to manage the panic that floods me about being unproductive and the fear that my employers will figure out in my absence that they don't need me and send me packing. This fear is unfounded but feels real nonetheless. Sick psyche.
