    I spent most of today in bed. Dr saw me and said I was definitely signed off till end of the week but it may take longer!!!! Panic.

    Parents coming tomorrow to look after me. I will stay calm and focus on getting better. I don't want to lose my job. In my own stupid way I do love it.

    Money spent £10 on taxi fares to and from drs and fish and chips which I couldn't eat as no appetite.

  • Sorry to hear you are still poorly :kisses3:
    You can't lose your job because the Doctor signed you off sick so just concentrate on getting better as you say.
    :wave: to your parents.
  • Hope you're feeling better Savingwannabe!!! ((((hugs))))
