Playing hooky after surgery

So one of the things that finally inspired me to go ahead and create this blog (and by the way, it is REALLY easy) was the fact that I am home this week "recovering" from a hysteroscopy. I put that word in quotes because I feel fine. I could run, work, function as normal but I am supposedly not allowed to...prior to surgery, my dr instructed me to take a week from work. She also said I would probably have a catheter so I don't know if that was why she wanted me home for a week. I made the mistake of looking online and one site said I could go to work immediately. The guilt, the guilt...i am a coward and have not called my dr to ask what I can and can't do. I am absolutely taking advantage and playing hooky.

I feel guilty...this is now how I am conditioned. I am supposed to work and be productive. I am having a hard time "relaxing" yet I am not willing to do anything about it. Why can't I just enjoy it??? What a complainer...here is what I AM doing...looking for a job, a housecleaner and thinking about a vacation. I am exploring jobs and work from home opportunities. That would be awesome. Anyway, how do you guys deal with the guilt of responsibility vs. taking time for you??
