Mental Heath Day. Doesn’t that crack you up? I heard it for the first time last night on the TV. I had to laugh because that is exactly what I am having today and tomorrow, compliments of my loving mother. Who, by the way, should be a nominee for sainthood at this point, if we were Catholic :)
So, get this, I Googled “Mental Health Day” and found a site called “The Urban Dictionary” , which actually had 3 definitions for Mental Health Day:
1. A quasi-legitimate excuse to take a day off from school or work. Although the person who takes the day off claims he needs it to finish up some work and regain sanity from the rat race, he usually ends up sleeping in, and accomplishing less than nothing.
2. A day off from work or school during which you sort out all your emotional and psychological problems.3. When you call in sick to work. But you really just want to take a day off and chill out.
**Note, I edited one of the definitions…hey this is a family friendly site!
Hmmm… they all sound so good! But I really am going to try to catch up on a few things around the house today. I’ll let you know how it goes ;)
Tomorrow is a different story though. AwesoMom and I are making big plans, a couple of hours without kids!!!! WOO HOO!!!
