What to do with a day off

This happens every time I have a weekday off.  I feel a little guilty, like I've called in sick or something.  I never call in sick, even when I'm truly sick, but I sit here at 8:45, wondering what the folks at work are thinking about me not being there.  Ummm, HELLO!  Nobody is there to give a crap!  I even checked my voicemail to see if there was any emergency that needed my attention.  Is that self-centered or what?  No messages.

I *am* having a nice relaxing morning.  I *am* glad I have this time off.  I *do* need to recharge my batteries...I just feel...strange.  It makes no sense to feel this way.  Most people take a day off without giving work a single thought...right?  I'm so weird.

Wondering if you're needed at work?  Feeling guilt at having a day off?  You did not get THAT from me!  Must have been your dad's hard-working genes that gave you this particular trait.

I soooo did that when I was working. Enjoy your day off!

Wow!  You've got a bad case of "strong work ethic"!  LOL  I've never really suffered from that myself -- especially now that the office is like a ghost town.  Enjoy your time off or else it really isn't time off.

LOL No I do not think that came from your mama. I do believe she would stay away from work everyday if she could!
