It wouldn’t take much to convince me to stay home from work today. It’s 2 degrees out.
Having to take care of the heater would do it in a heartbeat.
Unfortunately, I live in an apartment building with a super who does that stuff, so I have no excuse.
I hope you are able to stay toasty warm all day regardless. May I recommend one of Face’s warm hugs? They’re marvy.
I did both. I stayed home most of the day while my professional technician put the burner to rights, (the oil delivery came during his service time). So everything's fine here.
And then I went to work for the short remainder of the day, just to make sure that the guy who was working in my behalf could get off at his usual time. All cool here.

I did, but I feel more tired now than if I had worked all day. Wait, I did work all day; I just didn't get paid for most of it, (the other way 'round, actually!)
