I must say that I have enjoyed seeing all these lists.

And this... a lot of you (mostly from TEC for what it is worth) have not taken a sick day when you are not ill.

No wonder I am Catholic, it suits my more nefarious ways!!!

Blessings of Advent to you dear Tobias!

Thanks, Fran. Best to you, too!

Oh Fran, I am as nefarious as you. No, I'm probably worse. Very rarely have I taken a sick when I was sick. I've been in China on sick days, at the beach with my dog, oh, the list can go on. My excuse isn't being Catholic. It's working for the school district.
