I woke up this morning feeling kind of crummy, with a number of pathetic reasons to just take a sick/mental health day. Instead I went to work... until noon. I was just sitting there bored playing solitaire and decided it would be so much better to go home and go to bed... my Lieutenant was off which meant I'd probably spend the afternoon bored- it's normally much quieter for me when he's off.
Sometimes we just need a day off, even if we aren't really that sick. I needed to remind myself that because I suck at taking the day off. I normally talk myself out of it, taking the schoolchild thought approach that I wont be able to go to the gym or clean the house when I get home if I take a sick day, and then end up sitting at my desk in a slump all day. Boo to that.
So I took the afternoon off, came home and read a bit, and then took a nice nap. Now sister and I are going to watch a movie and then I'll probably go back to sleep. Depending on how I feel in the morning, even with all the extra sleep, I'll probably take another day... if I don't talk myself out of it.
Happy Monday!
