One of the nice things about being self-employed is that you don’t need a phone to call in sick. The sad thing is that there are no paid days off.

Yesterday morning I got on my computer but after only about an hour I decided to call in sick and I turned off the computer for the rest of the day. Normally I spend around 8 to 12 hours a day “at work.” I can’t remember the last time I spent only an hour on line. Thanks to the winter storm we were having I didn’t go to the playground but it was still a great day and today I’m realizing how much I needed that. I wish the concept of a mental health day was around back when I was overly employed.

Thanks for the welcome, Mark Kelly .
