Hey Toots - it is cold and dark where I am, and a tad soggy. I've had to wear layers and waterproofs all week, and gloves are a must! I work over an hour from home, so have been staying in my 'holiday cottage' (the house I bought before I met Mr Windswept, that we let out on holiday lets thru summer) most week nights, but I will be home tonight... Won't intentionally take a day off, but if I am feeling poorly I won't think twice about staying home.
