Sucks to be Sick

I’ve been up since 2:30 this morning. My nose is congested and sometimes running. I was sneezing. After laying in bed for an hour, I decided to just get up and do some work out of my home office. In addition to working two hours from home last night, I’ve put in a couple of hours already for a total of four. I like working remotely like this, but it sucks not being able to sleep or breathe very well.
Working remotely may have its advantages, but they are totally negated when you are sick.
Good news is that my manager said I can log the hours I’ve put in as regular time and any balance from 8 hours not worked as personal time. This is a plus so that I don’t have to use a full day of “vacation” time for being home sick.
