I always feel like I am taking too much sick time and people will be judging me but I looked at this year with my manager and I had taken 8 sick days and 6 vacation days. Something is wrong with how I am thinking!
I immediately took this Friday off to relax a little extra.
Some writing, maybe doing some garden work, going to Noisebridge, and I will get a massage. Wish me luck on getting someone who will pay attention to my need for gentle, basically geriatric, massage!
I have taken three sick days and 27 vacation days, mostly scattered – a day or two here, a long weekend there, plus two weeks in August. I still have five+ weeks of vacation time accumulated.
