Day 863: Stay At Home Because You’re Well Day

Sweet Lord in heaven!  It’s ‘Stay At Home Because You’re Well Day! 

Listen folks, I’m a big believer in taking mental health days.  And your mental health is just as important as your physical health!  Do you have sick days accumulated?  Take one.  Don’t go crazy… but taking one sick day when you’re healthy from time to time can be refreshing.  But do it in the middle of the week.  Don’t do it on a Monday or a Friday… if you play hooky to extend you weekend you should take annual leave.  I’m talking about mental health sick day.  Those should be islands of time… taken on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday.
Better yet, pull your kids out of school for the day to stay home with you!  It’s just for one day; they’re not going to fall behind.

Sometimes you just need a day at home or a special day with your kids.  Playing hooky with your kids is the foundation for some great memories.  You can go see a movie with your kids anytime, but I guarantee they’ll always remember the time took off work to take them.  ;)

Oh, and take advantage of today because ‘Stay At Home Because You’re Well Day’ is on a Tuesday.  Celebrating it this year will be a lot more fun than celebrating it in 2013 and 2014, trust me… no one needs to play hooky on the weekend.
