Today is my second "sick" day in a row I am taking from work. I usually don't take sick days just for the sake of taking them. Heck, I usually don't even take sick days when I am actually sick. But it all started with us being so busy with Chad's family. I haven't had any time to clean the house or do some grocery shopping. And this coming weekend will be no exception and then next weekend I am off to New Mexico.
I knew something had to give. So I decided I would call in sick on Wednesday and get stuff done around the house. Well, apparently my mom is right. I must be nesting. Because I cleaned yesterday like I have never cleaned before. I couldn't get enough of it. Tuesday night I was actually excited to wake up the next morning and get everything done. This is coming from a person who normally hates cleaning and all aspects of it. So, need less to say my day was busy and hard yesterday.
So I decided that I would take today to just relax and chill and hang out. Another reason I don't mind taking the sicks days is because when I go out on FMLA my company will use ALL my sick and vacation days before paying me my short term disability. I have money taken out of every check for my short term disability, so I think I should be able to save some of my sick/vacation days if I want. But, I can't, so whatever. I've been with UOP for almost 4 years and hardly ever take sicks days, so I have a ton. I figure I will use some of them up now and enjoy them. I wish Chad was home with me, but his work is evil and doesn't believe in paying people for time off.

Ewww, his jobs sounds more evil every day I hear about it.
But yay for getting to stay home a day or two :)
Melissa, I hope our staying w/you Friday night has not caused you any hardship. Let me know if we need to bring the travel trailer up--we'd be glad too if it makes it better for you.
