I was going to say fake a migraine, but if complete honesty is an issue that wouldn't work. 😜
Don't use that as an excuse. Just be honest and ask for a personal day. Or get your work done ahead of time and stealth take one without asking or telling anyone (and keep your phone handy to be responsive if something comes up)
After posting I realized I can’t lie to my boss, I love her lol so I woke up early and hope I can shut my brain down after lunch.
Just take a day off... it’s a pandemic
I would just say I need to take X off to run errands.
If someone needs a day off to run errands, I wouldn’t question them. Not only because it’s none of my business and I think they’re entitled to time off from work (and to use that time as they see fit), but also because grocery shopping can be a multi-hour ordeal where I live.
I’m going to say just take a day off. One thing I’m learning is that a company will always do what’s best for them, so you should follow that model and do what is best for you! I’ve found that I’m even more productive after a personal day. Practicing is heavy and sometimes you need a day full of mind numbing activities. Seize your day off, don’t feel bad about it, and return to kicking ass when you get back!

Take that personal day. Self care is the most important thing during this time.
