I've made an executive decision...

I'm taking a mental health day tomorrow. I'm tired, congested, and drained from my day today, and thankfully, we're compensated for our lack of a living wage with great benefits, including a shitload of vacation and sick days. So, I'm taking a sick day tomorrow and just going to be a lazy brat and sleep late and run some errands so I can relax a little over the weekend and not have to run around like a loon like usual.

My mental health is in severe jeopardy...it's either a day off or

I highly suggest that anyone else in need of one take it!

I'd wind up coming home with a whole nursery for a kid I don't plan on having for several years (despite the curse Tammy put on me today).

I just keep thinking, 'I've gotta get married. I've gotta get a house. I've gotta get FH to grow up first.'

At this rate...I'll never have kids!

Happy Mental Health Day!!

I take about 2 a year. I'll take one in April after the current rush we're in.

Re: I've made an executive decision...

Aw sh*t! I think I caught my co-worker's cold! She waited until she was sick for 3 days before she took a day off and after breathing all over us all! I just sneezed like 10 times in a row which never happens unless I'm having an allergy attack (doubtful) or I'm sick. Guess my sick day might really be a sick day after all. Explains the congestion, though.

Re: I've made an executive decision...

Good for you. I have been trying to squeeze a mental health day into my schedule, but I haven't been able to Hopefully soon, though.

How did you sneak an unsensored curse in there

Jann..

Go outside.. walk around if you're almost sick, sitting in your house is sure to push it over the edge.

Personally I ALWAYS get sick on mental health days. I asked my doctor once and he said its probably because I push myself so hard at the office. My body lives off adrenaline and the higher the stress the more my body makes up for it. When I finally get so exhausted that I take a day off to 'relax' my body stops pushing so hard and it's like everything catches up with me. Without the adrenaline pushing my illness aside I start to feel really worn out and tired. Allergy attacks are easier then too.

PS: My allergies are up and aggravated today. So it really maybe just that. Still get up and get out. Treat yourself to a little treat at a deli or coffee shop.
