Sick Days and Working at Home

Inevitably I ended up catching the cold my youngest had last Friday. What it is about the germs little people pass around? They seem to be so powerful that I ended up in a much worse  state than he was. I blame lack of rest for my lowered immunity to his germs.
I have to admit – it’s times like these that I sort of miss the corporate world. Getting paid sick days would be wonderful right about now. I’d love to climb into bed, snuggle under my comforter and take a long nap; but if I don’t work I don’t get paid. I’ve accounted for the time off I’ll need to travel out of town tomorrow morning and go house hunting with my cousin the realtor during the afternoon/evening. In the meantime, I’ll get through today by sipping some jasmine and lemon green tea laced with Echinacea and Golden Seal as I keep my nose to the grindstone.
How do you handling running your business when you get sick?
