Hi TC - thx for asking! Yes. Things went okay in their own way. I'd created the scenario that he'd not go in to work on Monday, and not phone in & that he'd get fired. :-(( That's the crazy way my mind goes to the negative & then RUNS with it!

Anyway, I called him Sunday nite to say Hi & ask if he wanted a 'wake-up' phone call Monday morning. He said "oh - I'm okay Mom! But okay - phone me if it'll make you feel better. I'm setting my alarm for 8. I'm scheduled to work at 9:30" He was with 2 friends & they were coming over to our house, so I thought that he'd probably be up until all hours! (which he probably was).

So I phoned him at 8....no answer. Called him again at 9 & he sounded half dead & said he was feeling really sick & was going to phone in sick. So I was feeling pretty awful, given the 'scenario' I'd created!! Anyway, I phoned him late in the afternoon & he said that he had left a message in the morning & had phoned in again around 4 & apologized for not having been able to go in, & asked his co-worker if it had gone okay. She said that yes, she & boss had done fine. She said that when he came in today to pick up his paycheque, he could see when he was next scheduled to work (he only works Mon-Thur & they're not open on New Years Day). So his boss said he didn't need to come in tomorrow, since he was still feeling a bit sick. He works next on Monday. Also son said he's feeling much better tonight. I was sick too - we probably had the same thing. I'm feeling about 95% better now.

Can't call me 'brief', can you??

Thx for asking TC.

How are you doing? You start your job next week don't you? How are you feeling about that?

I send hugs, luv, Kath
