What I'm Reading This Week #33
Good morning to you! Friday is finally here and that's a good reason to take a hooky day. You know, for mental health reasons. 😁 Remember when it felt like you had to give an actual excuse when you wanted to call in back in the day? Then if you said you were sick and you really just wanted to go to lunch, a movie and maybe hit the grocery store on the way home, you had to pray you didn't run into anyone from work to bust you, like it was illegal or something. 🙄 I guess that's something that's changed for the better is not having to lie about why you're out.
