You absolutely did the right thing by giving two weeks notice. Despite how poorly you were treated by the company, you can be assured that you're leaving with your integrity intact.
To answer your questions:
1- do you think that was enough notice, because I need some time to get things together for the new job, and needed some days off? I still have to tell the head manager.
Two weeks notice is sufficient, though for any employer who has to recruit to replace a position it's not enough! When I interview candidates who are currently employed and offer to start in less than two weeks, I immediately begin to question their work ethic.
If you need extra time, it's better to put off your start date as with the new company, as you are doing, for a couple of days if it won't jeopardize your employment.
2- I found out I have about 2 days of sick time, if I don't use it I lose my sick time, and will not get paid for it, is it wrong of me to take a "sick" day before I leave.
Sick time is not yours unless you are sick. Therefore, it's not yours to lose. My company has a policy that once an employee has given notice, no sick or vacation time can be taken. Check with your HR department to see if there is a similar policy for your company.
