Normally when I call out sick from work, I'm not sick. But yesterday, I really wasn't feeling well. Usually I'll try to rally even so, but it just wasn't happening. After calling out, I immediately felt better, but not
that much better. At first, I started planning all the things I should do on my day off. But then my friend reminded me that I said I needed a F--k Off Day, so I should use that day to do nothing. I happily agreed.
First order of business, lay on the couch with my morning coffee (since I couldn't fall back asleep) with my book. #bliss
Consider showering... figure brushing my teeth is clean enough for the majority of the day. (I did shower eventually... around 5.)
Someone rings the doorbell. Normally I don't get a lot of visitors, especially in the middle of the day when no one knew I was taking off. So naturally, I rolled off the couch, practically crawled to the bathroom (just in case they could see me through the closed, curtained windows), and tried peek through the side of my bathroom curtain. See a FedEx truck. Realize that my neighbors must have ordered something, and sling myself back on the couch.
Get tired of reading, try to find something Netflix. Reminded that I really love having full control of the remote at all times.
Realize that while I haven't really done anything all day, it was pretty freakin awesome... and I don't want to go back to work tomorrow. Le sigh.
How do you spend your sick days?
I haven't called out sick when I wasn't sick in like forever. I totally need to do so and soon. lol. Doing nothing all day sounds pretty awesome and I totally wouldn't want to go back to work either.
ReplyDeleteIf I'm actually sick then I usually plant myself on the couch and watch Tv, eat and nap. It's glorious!
ReplyDeleteYesss, mental health days are the best! Napping, having full control of the remote, and not having to shower are awesome.
