Hi, Molly,
That's great news that the Medical Leave helped you.
If I took off it would freak out my hubby. It really would.
It would initially weird out the people I work with too. They would get over it quickly off course, but we are seeing so many people move out of our department that it's become a sick joke.

I have flexiblity at work so I am going to use it. Reading the replies here help me see that I can call in tomorrow.
I have to be at two meetings at the same time.
So the heck with that. I'm staying home to rest up for Wednesday.

Mari
