Well, that was a bit of a waste.
I felt like I had been off work too long (being ill), so I went in this morning. Yeeaah. I ended up going home at 10:30 because I felt all weak and sort of jangly. And because I absolutely MUST be at work tomorrow for a school trip that's short staffed. I don't feel so bad now that I'm on the sofa with lunch in me, but it's hard to tell how you'll feel in the next few hours when you're getting over a mystery virus.
And now I get the joy of trying to get a doctor's note to prove I've been ill. Apparently, you can self-certify being ill for seven days here. After that you need a doctor's certification. So, I called and asked if the doctor I saw on Tuesday could give me a note to take to work. No, she's only a fill-in for that surgery and they don't know when she'll be back. Another doc might be able to write something, but it might cost me if it hasn't been seven working days. Problem is, the doctor's seems to regard a working day as a day you work (weekdays) while my school seems to count weekends for some bizarre, unknown reason. Le sigh. Hopefully something'll work out.
Tomorrow I get to wrangle little kids from year one at the science museum. Thank goodness for cold and flu tablets.
