Going to work today with a swollen ankle, my knees hurt, my fingers - well i wont even go there, and yet im going in to work to do drying up, taking food out to people and clearing tables so lots of standing and stuff with my hands.

All because i feel stupidly guilty and feel like i cant phone in sick, i have no idea whats going to happen when i go in :/ I could hardly walk on my ankle yesterday but i iced it last night and im just hoping its going to be okay today.

Hmmm i just needed a rant (:
Everyone at home, well i dont know its almost like they dont know why im even concidering being off work today, so im going in :/

Maybe if i do it'll all go away and get better:) Hmm nice though anyway xD
I better go, thankyou for the rant, katherine xx

    So sorry love, been quiet in this bit today, though some us do have to work weekends eh! Just wanted to acknowledge your rough day and send a hug or two ((( ))). Hope you did feel ok if you did go in and that the ankle, knees and fingers held out for you.
    I really hope you have had a better evening, take care of yourself.

    Hi Katherine,

    I have only just seen your post and hope that if you did go into work (even better if you didn't) that you haven't put your joints under too much pressure.

    you are entitled to rant! so feel free to let it all out here on the forum...sometimes I think that this is the only place where we are truly free to say how we feel without fear of criticism or judgement.....
    so just you go ahead.!

    how are you feeling now?
    please take care not to push yourself too hard....... when all is said and done work is not the most important thing in our lives, so take time off if you need to for the sake of your health.

    Hi Katherine,
    glad you are having a better day...but sorry you dropped that tray on your poor ankle! ouch!

    be sure to rest that leg as much as possible..and I hope you get a decent night's sleep... nothing like sleep to fix the body and refresh the mind. Irisx
