So early in the week I wasn't feeling well.
Had some cold-like symptoms.
I really just thought it was a virus.
As this week has worn on I started feeling worse. My throat was getting more and more sore. Swallowing feels like I have glass in my throat. I found myself considering just spitting and wearing one of Makily's bibs all day to avoid swallowing. (just kidding, okay not really)
I finally broke down today and went to the walk in clinic.
I have strep throat!
GREAT!
First of all what are the chances that I have strep throat and Makily does not? How the heck is that possible? She is snotty but has been for a while now and is not running a fever so I am confused. Allen will obviously be taking care of her all weekend while I become a hand washing freak.
Secondly can you believe the irony that WE HAVE WAITED over a year to get our foster license and I HAVE STREP THROAT the same week our license is approved?!
Do we have great timing and impeccable luck or what!?
Anyway I am on antibiotics and will be contagious for the next 48 hours.
Lovely.
I'm off to eat some flavor ice.
Will be back after lots of Nyquil and antibiotics.

It has been WAY too long since I signed in; I am so sorry! I wanted to congratulate you on getting your license to be a foster parent! I have thought of doing this myself; what a gift you will give the children. Praying for you as you begin this journey and I hope you start feeling better real soon.
