I have to admit that I am not operating at 100% this weekend. I have contracted a little bug that is going around and it really has me dragging.
And although common sense tells me that if I am sick, I need to get well, I can’t help but think that I am “giving in” to the malady by throttling back on my normally ambitious workload.
So I will relegate myself to more sedentary activities for a day or two. One of the best things about online marketing is that you can do it from the comforts of home. I need to do some web updates and I have a lot of photos that I need to add into my stock inventory.
I can’t help but feel guilty about not being able to get more done. That darned old work ethic keeps badgering me to “get up and get going!”
But my “get up and go” had “got up and went!”

I do the same thing when I don't feel well. I have worked from the hospital! I hope you find the time to get a little rest and feel better.....without guilt!
Take care of yourself. Everything else can wait. Feeling ill gives us much more appreciation for all the days we take for granted. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
No heavy lifting real estate duties today and take 10 AR posts, get your head to bed to recharge.
Feel better Richard.
Richard, there are times you just need to sit back and REST! Get well soon!
Richard, I hope you are wearing a 3M mask as to not pass it on to your AR Family. Take care and get well soon!
Richard....I work from home often....it's where ever I feel like being that day.....the best part of online marketing is that it CAN be done from anywhere.....relax and enjoy the time at home....nap later this morning....it's football Sunday.
Relax and feel better - we all will look forward to your next awesome post, knowing then that you feel better!!!
It is good to listen to our bodies and slow down when we need to. Here in AZ in cold and sor throat thing has been going around even though it is still over 100 degrees outside.
Hi Richard ~ hope you enjoy the needed rest, and that you recover quickly. Work is fun, so you don't want to miss any more than you should!
That get up and go attitude will get you through anything. Thank you for your message. I am doing fantastic and appreciate you taking the time to inquire. Do remember to listen to your body and take care of yourself when you need to - guilt free! :)
I imagine you are the type, just like me, that will never retire. I love to work. I've been working since I was fifteen and haven't stopped once, not even during college. Hope you feel better soon.
I hope you Get well soon! Work from home today and take it easy, you might as well nip it in bud by resting and reading AR blogs.
Having come back from a far away vacation with a six hour difference.. .I feel so out of touch even after a few days has passed already. . this is the time I'm really appreciative that I can work from home at my own pace. .
Hoping you feel better Richard!
I totally understand what you mean! My daughter has been under the weather this weekend, and even though she's 15... she's wanted me to "sit" with her, or rub her feet, or generally just be next to her. I want to be a good mom, and I am... but I feel guilty about not getting other things done I'd planned to accomplish!
Well I went to one of those clinics in the drug store, and was pleased that I was able to get in and get out with a prescription in less than an hour round trip.
It was a pleasant experience and hopefully now I'll get well sooner! Thanks for all of your best wishes.
Richard, well, I know how this goes. In the early part of the year I was down for almost a week, no choice. I tried so hard to get up and go, but there was no way. I felt guilty, etc. Like you, I decided to work on all my online "stuff" and even put up a new website during that time. So all in all, even with a few days down doing NOTHING, I was very productive at the end of the day.
Feel better!
Richard, it's not goofing off! It's taking care of yourself. Hope you feel better soon!
Bill's home remedy...
5 ounces of Whiskey, 8 ounces of water, 2 teaspoons of sugar, 2 teaspoons of honey. Heat until hot like coffee.
The first one will clear your head. The second one will cleat up your chest congestion.
And by the fourth one you won't care if you are seck or not!
Richard:
I don't know if you want to take Bill's advice - you would definitely not get any work done. But it might be relaxing.
I certainly hope you are feeling much better today.
That is one incredible photo - I often associate my moods with clouds.....hope you're feeling better :)
