This picture came up on my Facebook this morning. it was a google search and it was saying jobs where you can work from your bed.  Mind you before I saw this I had a rough night (rough past couple of days really) my endo is flaring and I cannot take pain meds due to being on the LDN, but I called work and said I wouldn’t be in because I was not well. It tends to be my heated blanket that works magic on me. I was getting my fluids, iron, and b12 today and I knew that would help me get to feeling better. The Phenergan helps keep my nausea down but it makes me so drowsy and drugged to the point where I can’t drive. For a moment I tried to imagine a job where I didn’t need to leave my heated blanket and was tempted for a second but I got my happy butt up and took a hot shower and drove myself to work. My manager was shocked to see me but I told her that even though I’m in pain I’ll be in pain wherever. I know I’m way more comfortable under my heated blanket but on days like to day where I have the ability to get myself up and going I take advantage. I like to prove to myself that I am not a slave of that blanket and its warmth. I know with grad school approaching at the end of this month, I need to really save my sick days for when I’m either at the end of my rope or when I’m in the hospital. I know now more than ever how important my rest days are and how I need to take advantage of them!!
