Is it or is it not?

Today was going to be the last day of work prior to a much anticipated (for the last 3 years) week-long vacation. Not a vacation as other’s may enjoy. A week to spend finishing up the move into my bungalow…building a storage shed, moving my stored items into it (those that survived the rains under flimsy tarps), finishing painting the bathroom and kitchen, completing the unpacking of kitchen items, hanging the rest of the paintings currently stacked in the closet…

But the boss is sick. We’re a three-man shop, so having one of the two remaining staff sick may scotch my plans for a week of domestic completion.

I await the word.
