home sick.

well, after trying to talk myself out of it, at about 5am this morning, i called in sick just a little after 6:30. i don't like calling out, because at our job the work doesn't just pile up and wait for you-- someone else has to turn over all of the OR rooms you aren't there to do. but, with such a sore throat, fever, body aches, sinus sloshyness, and this ridiculous cough that makes my lungs burn, i just couldn't do it. i'm in bed until i feel ready to get out of it to walk to the store for some theraflu. if that doesn't happen, i do have some tea in the kitchen... luckily i also have a stack of five or six magazines and fabric catalogs on the bureau that i got over the past couple of weeks and haven't had time to read yet!

some pillows of mine have been featured over at jennifer's blog! i'm featured alongside some other really awesome etsy pillow makers!

with me getting a shout out, i wanted to pay it forward and give a blogstyle shout out to an awesomely talented and beautiful lady whom i've had the pleasure of running into a bit around town. you should check out her music on her myspace page. i swear, no matter what mood i'm in, i could listen to her sing all day.

i desperately want this chair from ikea for my sewing area. incase you can't tell from the photo, they are clear lucite plastic. LOVE.


and i love these:


okay. time to make tea and take a nap....

Hope you're feeling better! I totally feel you on how hard it is to call in sick, especially when it means that colleagues will have to pick up the slack. I have a hard time remembering that it's better to take one day off and get well than to go into work, stay sick for longer, and have your productivity decreased in the long run. But on the bright side, those Ikea chairs ARE awesome ;)
