Out Sick

So every once in awhile it happens - you can't make it in to school. Well today is one of those days. Wracked with guilt I created sub plans and posted the job online. I cannot decide if technology has made this easier on my conscience or tougher. Traditionally one would call his or her supervisor or boss, or in this case principal, but with technology to support us in even the most mundane tasks we find ourselves emailing or texting or using an online database to create our absense and fill it in no less than a minute or two. I think that hearing the voice on the other end telling you, "Feel better! We'll look after everything here and we'll see you tomorrow." is a thing of the past. As I am typing this I've received an email saying those exact words! Funny, isn't it? The universe is a powerful force, giving me exactly what I need the moment I need it.
