I did talk to my boss about this and she was encouraging of taking today off and recommended working four days a week for a couple of weeks (meaning take the fifth day off, not work extra the four daysy). She told me to take the day off and do something fun for myself. She suggested to go see my nephew when he gets out of school. When I called my sister, she was busy and in the middle of things and said I can come up there, but they did have plans for the evening. I saw no point in getting up and dressed for a couple hours to be stuck in traffic coming home a couple of hours later. So the crying continues. I sucked it up and called another person to possibly have lunch with and did not get an answer. I can't think of anything else to do but continue to cry and knock myself out to sleep away some of the pain and loneliness I feel. I'm most likely going to take off tomorrow, but because I have such a Type A personality, I'm putting pressure on myself and consider this wasting my PTO. But pressure bursts pipes, and that is exactly what has happened.
But she's right, taking off to only sleep the day away is not helpful. But I have nothing else to do. And not really in the mood to do anything at all. Nothing is interesting to me. I've gone through an entire box of Family Size cereal today as I'm in and out of sleep.
