I know it sounds strange but I just love sick days. When I was a kid I used to lay on the couch and watch Let's Make a Deal while my mom served me Campbell's Chicken Noodle Soup and 7-Up. To this day, I am convinced that this is the cure for the common cold.
When I worked a regular 9 to 5 job in an office I would sometimes take a sick day just because I was tired of work and wanted to pamper myself. I would stay in my pajamas until noon and convince someone else to go to the store for my soup and soda.
Working at home makes it harder to enjoy a sick day. After all I can stay in my pajamas all day everyday if I want to. I can usually slip in breaks to lay on the couch and watch TV. I can eat soup and sip soda anytime I want.
I still find that it is important to set aside a whole day every so often just to pamper myself, a day when I do nothing but take care of me, otherwise I might really get sick.
